Chapter 6. Mirroring data for hybrid and Multicloud buckets

Procedure

1. From the Multicloud Object Gateway (MCG) command-line interface, run the following command to create a bucket class with a mirroring policy:

   $ noobaa bucketclass create placement-bucketclass mirror-to-aws --backingstores=azure-resource,aws-resource --placement Mirror

2. Set the newly created bucket class to a new bucket claim to generate a new bucket that will be mirrored between two locations:

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

   $ noobaa obc create  mirrored-bucket --bucketclass=mirror-to-aws

1. Apply the following YAML. This YAML is a hybrid example that mirrors data between local Ceph storage and AWS:

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

   apiVersion: noobaa.io/v1alpha1
   kind: BucketClass
   metadata:
     labels:
       app: noobaa
     name: <bucket-class-name>
     namespace: openshift-storage
   spec:
     placementPolicy:
       tiers:
       - backingStores:
         - <backing-store-1>
         - <backing-store-2>
         placement: Mirror

2. Add the following lines to your standard Object Bucket Claim (OBC):

   additionalConfig:
     bucketclass: mirror-to-aws
