Configuring Snapshots on Docker Swarm

Snapshots with Docker Swarm

Any volumes holding your application data can be included in snapshots by listing them under the backup section in your config. Replicated will check all nodes in your cluster for volumes with a matching name and include them in your snapshot.

Multi-strategy Snapshots with Docker Swarm

Multi-strategy snapshots can also be used with Swarm.

When configuring multi-strategy snapshots, all volumes that will be restored should be included under the same strategy.

backup:
  enabled: true
  strategies:
    - name: full
      swarm:
        volumes: [ "redis-backup-data" ]
