Settings — Backup & DR

Purpose

Configuration entry points for Velero backups and disaster recovery, linking settings to the operational backup centers.

When to use it

  • Verify Velero is installed and wired before promising backup coverage
  • Reach the backups or DR center quickly during a drill
  • Check DR configuration ahead of an audit

How to get there

  • Route: /settings/backup-dr
  • Nav: Settings → Backup / DR
  • Related: /velero, /backup-dr, /disaster-recovery, /backup-wizard

Operate from the console (UX)

  1. Open /settings/backup-dr from the sidebar, workspace switcher, or command palette (⌘K / Ctrl+K).
  2. Read the PageHead / deck line — confirm it matches: Configuration entry points for Velero backups and disaster recovery, linking settings to the operational backup centers.
  3. Prefer dry-run / plan when the UI offers it before mutating production.
  4. Start the wizard or job; watch progress and history panels.
  5. Confirm completion on the target inventory (VMs, snapshots, backup store).
  6. Empty / fail: No data → check auth, namespace filter, and that required operators (KubeVirt/CDI/monitoring) are installed; purpose was: Configuration entry points for Velero backups and disaster recovery, linking settings to the operati.
  7. Success: Live inventory or job progress matches the deck line; you can navigate to a related center without re-auth.
