Burning Down The House: How to Plan for and Deal with Disaster Recovery in CF
summary
Builds and ships a BOSH-based backup framework called bbr CLI that runs component-provided lock/backup/unlock/restore hooks via SSH, collects artifacts, validates checksums and packages tar+metadata, and restores into BOSH deployments and the BOSH director. Current coverage includes director, CredHub, UAA and Pivotal Elastic Runtime; locks last on the order of minutes (5–6 min typical, driven by MySQL dumps). Demonstrated working end-to-end; roadmap adds incremental backups, point‑in‑time recovery, agent-triggering, parallel hooks and event‑stream state storage.
