Description

Use this script to designate backups in cloud storage as archival backups, ensuring their indefinite retention regardless of retention policies.

This script allows you to mark backups previously created with barman-cloud-backup as archival backups. Once flagged as archival, these backups are preserved indefinitely and are not subject to standard retention policies.

NOTE:

For GCP, only authentication with GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS env is supported.

Parameters

URL of the cloud source, such as a bucket in AWS S3. For example: s3://bucket/path/to/folder.

BACKUP_ID

The ID of the backup to be kept.

-V / --version

Show version and exit.

--help

show this help message and exit.

-v / --verbose

Increase output verbosity (e.g., -vv is more than -v).

-q / --quiet

Decrease output verbosity (e.g., -qq is less than -q).

-t / --test

Test cloud connectivity and exit.

--cloud-provider

The cloud provider to use as a storage backend.

Allowed options are:

  • aws-s3.
