Using Apache HBase Backup and Disaster RecoveryPDF version

Create a snapshot

You can use COD CLI to create snapshots of HBase tables. The create-snapshot command takes a snapshot of a table in HBase, exports the snapshot to the specified storage location and deletes the snapshot after the export is successful.

cdp opdb create-snapshot --environment-name ENVIRONMENT_NAME --database-name DATABASE_NAME --table-name TABLE_NAME --snapshot-name SNAPSHOT_NAME --snapshot-location SNAPSHOT_LOCATION

--environment-name

The name of the CDP environment.

--database-name

The name of the operational database.

--table-name

The fully qualified name of the HBase table whose snapshot is to be taken.

--snapshot-name

The name of the new snapshot. The snapshot name is unique per database.

--snapshot-location

The name of the snapshot location URL on object store where the snapshot is to be stored.

cdp opdb create-snapshot --environment-name odx-wgel6j --database-name test --table-name table_6uf7xt --snapshot-name s1 --snapshot-location s3a://cod-7215/cod--yq3p370r6qro/backupdata
