Initialize MongoDB with Snapshot

This tutorial will show you how to use KubeDB to initialize a MongoDB database with an existing snapshot.

Before You Begin

At first, you need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster. If you do not already have a cluster, you can create one by using Minikube.

Now, install KubeDB cli on your workstation and KubeDB operator in your cluster following the steps here.

This tutorial assumes that you have created a namespace demo and a snapshot snapshot-infant. Follow the steps here to create a database and take instant snapshot, if you have not done so already. If you have changed the name of either namespace or snapshot object, please modify the YAMLs used in this tutorial accordingly.

Note that the yaml files that are used in this tutorial, stored in docs/examples folder in GitHub repository kubedb/cli.

Create MongoDB with Init-Snapshot

Below is the MongoDB object created in this tutorial.

apiVersion: kubedb.com/v1alpha1
kind: MongoDB
metadata:
  name: mgo-init-snapshot
  namespace: demo
spec:
  version: 3.4
  storage:
    storageClassName: "standard"
    accessModes:
    - ReadWriteOnce
    resources:
      requests:
        storage: 50Mi
  init:
    snapshotSource:
      name: snapshot-infant
      namespace: demo

$ kubedb create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubedb/cli/0.8.0-beta.2/docs/examples/mongodb/Initialization/demo-2.yaml
validating "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubedb/cli/0.8.0-beta.2/docs/examples/mongodb/Initialization/demo-2.yaml"
mongodb "mgo-init-snapshot" created

Here,

  • spec.init.snapshotSource.name refers to a Snapshot object for a MongoDB database in the same namespaces as this new mgo-init-snapshot MongoDB object.

Now, wait several seconds. KubeDB operator will create a new StatefulSet. Then KubeDB operator launches a Kubernetes Job to initialize the new database using the data from snapshot-infant Snapshot.

$ kubedb get mg -n demo
