[筆記] 用pbackrest 備份還原 postgresql / Backup Restore Postgresql With Pgbackrest

這兩天在測試pgbackrest ，簡單筆記一下測試狀況

install

在ubuntu 18.04 安裝pgbackrest 很簡單，內建在apt裡面，所以可以直接用

sudo apt install pgbackrest

進行安裝

config

pgbackrest 的設定檔在 /etc/pgbackrest/pgbackrest.conf 如果是用apt 安裝，預設會建立一個 /etc/pgbackrest.conf 但是這個路徑是錯誤的執行 pgbackrest的時候，預設還是會去讀取 /etc/pgbackrest/pgbackrest.conf 要特別注意，要不就是每次都指定config路徑，要不就是把那個錯誤的設定檔幹掉

config 內容

內容其實很簡單

postgres@hqdc039:~$ cat /etc/pgbackrest/pgbackrest.conf 
[demo]
pg1-path=/database/11/main

[global]
repo1-cipher-pass=zWaf6XtpjIVZC5444yXB+cgFDFl7MxGlgkZSaoPvTGirhPygu4jOKOXf9LO4vjfO
repo1-cipher-type=aes-256-cbc
repo1-path=/var/lib/pgbackrest
repo1-retention-full=2

[global:archive-push]
compress-level=3
process-max=4

[demo] 用來指定這個 “stanza” 的名稱

pg1-path 是資料庫存放的路徑

[global] 中的兩個cipher 用途我不清楚，不設定也沒關係

“repo1-path” 則是用來存放備份的路徑
“repo1-retention-full” 定義要保留幾次 full backup

[global:archive-push] 似乎是用來定義在備份/還原時的選項

process-max 指定要用多少process (平行處理)

簡單流程

config (pgbackrest & postgresql )
建立 stanza
建立備份
(還原，如果有需要的話)

其他部份

清除 stanza (刪除備份)
踩到的地雷

設定 pgbackrest & postgresql

pgbackrest 基本上設定很簡單，內容就跟上面的一樣就可以跑了。當然要新增其他進階的，就要自己研究了，內容有夠長 https://pgbackrest.org/configuration.html

在postgresql 中，要新增一些設定，主要是 archive_command

postgres@hqdc039:~$ grep -A 100 "for pgbackrest" /etc/postgresql/11/main/postgresql.conf 
#for pgbackrest
archive_command = 'pgbackrest --stanza=demo archive-push %p'
archive_mode = on
listen_addresses = '*'
log_line_prefix = ''
max_wal_senders = 3
wal_level = replica
postgres@hqdc039:~$

archive_command 這個因為要帶stanza 名稱進來，所以需要跟pgbackrest.conf 裡面定義的名稱一致

max_wal_senders 簡單說就是定義在抄寫wal 的時候，可以同時抄給幾台這是postgresql 的說明

the maximum number of simultaneously running WAL sender processes

wal_level 有三種等級，參考 https://blog.csdn.net/pg_hgdb/article/details/78666719

minimal –不能通过基础备份和wal日志恢复数据库。
replica = 9.6版本以前的archive和hot_standby –该级别支持wal归档和复制。
logical –在replica级别的基础上添加了支持逻辑解码所需的信息。

設定完成後，重起 postgresql 就可以了

建立 stanza

stanza 這名詞我是第一次聽到，直接翻譯就是 ""（詩的）節，段"

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/zht/%E8%A9%9E%E5%85%B8/%E8%8B%B1%E8%AA%9E-%E6%BC%A2%E8%AA%9E-%E7%B9%81%E9%AB%94/stanza

在pgbackrest中，可以一次定義多個 stanza，用來備份不同的DB 這次環境很簡單，所以就只有設定一個依照上面的pgbackrest.conf 內容設定好了，需要先建立這個stanza 指令:

postgres@hqdc039:~$ pgbackrest --stanza=demo stanza-create --log-level-console=detail
2019-09-04 16:21:40.700 P00   INFO: stanza-create command begin 2.16: --log-level-console=detail --pg1-path=/database/11/main --repo1-cipher-pass=<redacted> --repo1-cipher-type=aes-256-cbc --repo1-path=/var/lib/pgbackrest --stanza=demo
2019-09-04 16:21:41.525 P00   INFO: stanza-create command end: completed successfully (825ms)
postgres@hqdc039:~$

接著就可以執行備份了

backup

備份指令也很簡單，要注意的是，如果不帶參數，pgbackrest 會自行決定要用incremental或者是 full backup

postgres@hqdc039:~$ pgbackrest --stanza=demo  --log-level-console=detail backup
2019-09-04 16:41:17.458 P00   INFO: backup command begin 2.16: --log-level-console=detail --pg1-path=/database/11/main --repo1-cipher-pass=<redacted> --repo1-cipher-type=aes-256-cbc --repo1-path=/var/lib/pgbackrest --repo1-retention-full=2 --stanza=demo

執行後，可以檢查一下

    status: ok
    cipher: aes-256-cbc

還原測試

pgbackrest 的還原因為透過WAL ，所以有一些觀念需要先釐清本來我的測試是先做好備份，然後直接砍掉 DB，接著再用restore還原卻發現砍掉的DB居然沒有回來.. 後來看了這一篇，然後又研究了一下 Point-in-Time Recovery https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/issues/800 才找到正確的用法

先把DB整個砍掉

postgres@hqdc034:/zp/database$ time dropdb demo

然後停止postgresql 服務

postgres@hqdc034:/zp/database$ pg_ctlcluster 10 main stop
  sudo systemctl stop postgresql@10-main

接著就可以來下指令還原了

postgres@hqdc034:/zp/database$ time pgbackrest --stanza=demo --log-level-console=info --delta --type=time "--target=2019-09-05 11:00:00.268248+08" --target-action=promote restore
2019-09-05 11:15:57.480 P00   INFO: restore command begin 2.13: --delta --log-level-console=info --pg1-path=/zp/database/10/main --process-max=4 --repo1-path=/var/lib/pgbackrest --stanza=demo --target="2019-09-05 11:00:00.268248+08" --target-action=promote --type=time
2019-09-05 11:15:57.624 P00   INFO: restore backup set 20190905-111109F
2019-09-05 11:15:57.947 P00   INFO: remove invalid files/paths/links from /zp/database/10/main

2019-09-05 11:16:00.791 P00   INFO: write /zp/database/10/main/recovery.conf
2019-09-05 11:16:00.797 P00   INFO: restore global/pg_control (performed last to ensure aborted restores cannot be started)

real	0m3.328s
user	0m6.896s
sys	0m0.832s

在DB目錄中，會產生一個recovery.conf，這是用來給 postgresql 看的檔案，裡面會紀錄怎麼還原、以及還原的類型、時間點，這邊指定要恢復到 2019-09-05 11:00:00.268248+08 這個時間格式要看資料庫的設定，可以藉由以下指令得到

postgres@hqdc034:/zp/database$ psql -Atc "select current_timestamp"
2019-09-05 11:14:27.268248+08

檢查一下recovery.conf

postgres@hqdc034:/zp/database$ cat /zp/database/10/main/recovery.conf 
restore_command = 'pgbackrest --log-level-console=info --stanza=demo archive-get %f "%p"'
recovery_target_time = '2019-09-05 11:00:00.268248+08'
recovery_target_action = 'promote'

重新啟動postgresql 然後看看被砍掉的demo DB有沒有回來

postgres@hqdc034:/zp/database$ pg_ctlcluster 10 main start
Warning: the cluster will not be running as a systemd service. Consider using systemctl:
  sudo systemctl start postgresql@10-main
postgres@hqdc034:/zp/database$ psql 
psql (10.8 (Ubuntu 10.8-1.pgdg14.04+1))
Type "help" for help.

postgres=# \q

很好， demo DB 有順利的還原回來了，先暫時測試到這邊。接下來要來玩postgresql on zfs

後續如果想更深入測試 pgbackrest，可以試試看異機備份還原。
