Data Backup (Connected Insights - Local)

Connected Insights - Local software performs a daily backup of database and variant data to the mounted external storage configured at the time of installation. This backup data is saved to /mnt/<ici_mount_path>/ici_<ServerFullyQualifiedDomainName> or /mnt/<ici_mount_path>/ici_<IPAddressInCaseOfStaticConfiguration>. The backup data can contain up to 5 days of information, including database and variant data exports.

The data backup process saves backup data when there is a difference between the previous successful backup and the current state of the application. If the state of the application has changed from the previous backup and new cases are processed, but there is no new backup directory found for the following day, then run the following command to create a backup manually:

kubectl create job --from cronjob/elasticsearch-dbbackup esdb-test -n ici && kubectl create job --from cronjob/postgres-dbbackup pgdb-test -n ici

If there is a system failure, contact Illumina Technical Support to recover the system using the backup data.
