Description

This alert is triggered when the size of a backup storage directory exceeds the threshold. Note

The threshold is the Alert Threshold for Backup Storage Capacity defined in the Storage Configuration of a backup strategy.

Principle

None.

Alert rule

Metric Default threshold Duration Detection cycle Time before clearance
backup_storage_capacity_used_percent None 0 seconds 30 minutes 40 minutes

Alert information

Trigger method Alert level Scope
Reminder of OCP Stopped Service

Alert templates

  • Overview: ${alarm_target} ${alarm_name}

  • Details: ${alarm_target} ${alarm_name}

  • Overview example: storage_url=xxxxxxx. The backup size exceeds the threshold. The proportion of the used storage is ${value}.

  • Details example: storage_url=xxxxxxx. The backup size exceeds the threshold. The proportion of the used storage is ${value}.

${alarm_target} follows the storage_url=xxxxxxx format and ${value} is a percentage value, for example, 80%.

Impact on the system

If the backup storage directory is full, new backup cannot be written in, which affects the restoration of a backup cluster.

Possible causes

  • The mount disk of the backup storage directory you configured is too small.

  • The retention period for backup data is improperly set.

Suggested solutions

  • Scale out the mount disk of the backup storage directory.

  • Reduce the backup retention period in the backup strategy.

    • You can reduce the retention period of global backup data by setting the OCP system parameter ocp.backup.alarm.backup-data-retention-days to a smaller value.

    • You can also change the Retention Period of Backup Files in the backup strategy to a smaller value to reduce the retention period for backup data of a cluster.
