Seneca CDOT ARM Project: Management Server Backup Strategy and Recovery Plan

  • Contact: fedora-arm@senecacollege.ca

Scope

This document is intended for those who are familiar with administering the ARM Project's management servers. Having knowledge of the CDOT ARM standard operation procedures may lead to a better understanding of this document.

Purpose

The purpose of this document is to describe the process for the backup and synchronization of critical data and provide example of some possible disaster recovery scenarios.

Introduction

The Fedora ARM Project is a highly active R & D project. Because of the rapid change, the project required some specific backup strategies to be implemented on top of regular backup strategies.


In the event of an emergency, this document should provide enough information to re-create a similar management platform that will keep the project running.

Background

Like all Fedora projects, the ARM Project has a small yet active global community. The build firm is located in Ontario, Canada. Infrastructure support for the build firm is provided by the Seneca Center for Development and Technology at Seneca College in Toronto. The number of available ARM builders in the firm can vary. The builders are not backed up as those are easily recreated from available images.

As for the management servers, there are four major ones that are critical to this operation. For a complete list of servers and the services those offer please consult the necessary documents. The build system in Fedora is called Koji and there are multiple components to it. There is a hub, a web interface, a database, a certificate server and a repository. There are more
