[jira] [Commented] (GEODE-5053) Import and export should be
supported with full cluster running
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-5053?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16436040#comment-16436040 ]
Barbara Pruijn commented on GEODE-5053:
---------------------------------------
[~pchandra] Here is the flow: if you start a cluster with brand new locators and servers (with no configuration on them), you can import the cluster configuration when the full cluster is up and running (locators and servers are running). If the locators already have configuration and/or the servers have configuration, the import command will fail.
Once you have imported the configuration on the running cluster, then you can import the data. If the data that you import does not match the configuration, this command will fail. (e.g. load data in a region that is not defined in the configuration).
In the above scenario, you can import cluster config on running servers. But if there is any configuration on any server or locator, you cannot import the configuration.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-4893 fixed a bug related to this and should be released in geode 1.6.0.

> Key: GEODE-5053
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-5053
> Project: Geode
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: gfsh, management
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0, 1.5.0
> Reporter: Pulkit Chandra
> Priority: Major
>
> We want to provide support to export /import config and data. We dont have the ability to just run locators and not servers as we use BOSH to manage Geode, which is required for `import` today
> **Why** : As a operator if data contained in Geode is important, I would like to ensure I can back it up. Use cases range from ensuring your data doesnt get lost to migrating your data to another cluster.
> **How**: `Import` and `export` command should be the way to go
> **Limitations**: Cant have locators running and servers not running. Full cluster would be running before import is called. We can do rolling restart, if that is needed.
