Create etcd backup
This SOP should be followed in the following scenarios:
- 
When the need exists to create an etcd backup.
 - 
When shutting a cluster down gracefully.
 
Take etcd backup
- 
Connect to the
os-control01node associated with the ENV. - 
Use the
octool to make a debug connection to a controlplane nodeoc debug node/<node_name>
 - 
Chroot to the /host directory on the containers filesystem
sh-4.2# chroot /host
 - 
Run the cluster-backup.sh script and pass in the location to save the backup to
sh-4.4# /usr/local/bin/cluster-backup.sh /home/core/assets/backup
 - 
Chown the backup files to be owned by user
coreand groupcorechown -R core:core /home/core/assets/backup
 - 
From the admin machine, see inventory group:
ocp-ci-management, become the Openshift service account, see the inventory hostvars for the host identified in the previous step and note theocp_service_accountvariable.ssh <host> sudo su - <ocp_service_account>
 - 
Copy the files down to the
os-control01machine.scp -i <ssh_key> core@<node_name>:/home/core/assets/backup/* ocp_backups/
