FAQPage Schema
How do I configure OADP on AWS to back up OpenShift cluster data?▼

Configure OADP on AWS by creating an S3 bucket for backup storage, setting up IAM policies and credentials, deploying a DataProtectionApplication (DPA), and enabling EBS volume snapshots for OpenShift or ROSA clusters.

Can I use OADP with AWS STS-based authentication on a ROSA cluster?▼

Yes, OADP supports AWS STS-based authentication on ROSA clusters. The configuration includes setting up IAM roles with required permissions and integrating credentials secrets for secure access to S3 and EBS resources.

What AWS resources do I need to set up before installing OADP on OpenShift?▼

Before installing OADP, you need an AWS S3 bucket with versioning and encryption enabled, IAM policies granting required permissions, and AWS credentials configured as an OpenShift secret for the DataProtectionApplication.

Does OADP on AWS support multi-region backup setups for OpenShift?▼

Yes, OADP on AWS supports multi-region setups. You can configure VolumeSnapshotLocation for EBS and S3 bucket storage across different regions to ensure cluster backup redundancy and disaster recovery.

How do I validate that EBS volume snapshots are working with OADP in OpenShift?▼

Validate EBS volume snapshots by configuring VolumeSnapshotLocation (VSL) and VolumeSnapshotIssue (VSI) within the DPA, then running a test backup to confirm the EBS snapshots are successfully created and managed by OADP.

Why do I need to create a DataProtectionApplication CR for OpenShift backups on AWS?▼

A DataProtectionApplication (DPA) Custom Resource is required to configure the AWS provider for OADP. It defines backup and snapshot locations, manages credentials, and orchestrates the S3 and EBS integration for OpenShift cluster backups.
