Automated Backup Enterprise
Backups are crucial to restoring Dremio's state in case of a critical failure, so we recommend creating regular backups to minimize loss from the restore point. Use Dremio's automated backups to create backups on a schedule and output the backups to a folder in distributed storage.
To enable automated backups, use the dremio.automated_backups.enabled support key. By default, when dremio.automated_backups.enabled is enabled, Dremio creates a backup at midnight local time. To set your backup for a different time, set the dremio.automated_backups.schedule support key to the desired time in ISO format. For example, 13:45+02:00 or 14:12Z.
Automated backups currently do not create backups for Dremio Catalog's metadata storage backend. Follow the instructions on Dremio Catalog backup and restore processes to back up the metadata storage backend for Dremio Catalog.
