Document the in-place archiver restore, for both drivers#1047sheikh-arman wants to merge 6 commits into
Conversation
The existing PITR guides restore into a new MySQL object. The ArchiverRestore ops request rewinds an existing one instead -- same name, same connection string, same secrets -- so it needs its own page, and the two drivers differ enough in practice to warrant one each. Both pages lead with the distinction and say plainly that the operation is destructive, since that is the part a reader skimming for "how do I restore" most needs to see. The webhook's requirements are given as a table rather than discovered by trial: fullDBRepository is required because a manifest-only restore cannot repopulate a wiped data directory, timeout because the default per-step budget has nothing to do with how long a restore takes, and apply must be Always because IfReady waits for a Ready that never arrives once the volumes are gone. Two things are documented because they are easy to get wrong and hard to diagnose. Archiving is suspended by the restore and deliberately never resumed, so both pages explain why -- the restore forks the binlog history -- and tell the reader to take a full backup before removing the annotation, which is what makes later restores skip the abandoned branch. And on the VolumeSnapshot side, a storage request smaller than the snapshot leaves the restore stalled in Provisioning with nothing on the database to say why, which is easy to hit after a volume expansion. The VolumeSnapshot page also covers what actually differs there: only member 0 is built from the snapshot and carries the dataSource, the rest are seeded by group replication, and with a CSI driver whose snapshots live inside the source volume retainPV: false can take the snapshots with the volumes.

There are two ways to recover to a point in time and they suit different situations, so each driver now has a page for each. The existing guides restore into a new MySQL object and move to different-db unchanged apart from their yaml paths; same-db documents the ArchiverRestore ops request, which rewinds the existing database in place so the name, connection string, secrets and service all stay put and nothing has to be re-wired. The same-db pages carry the whole process rather than referring back -- storage, retention, encryption, archiver, database, writing data, choosing the timestamp, restoring, verifying -- because someone recovering from a bad write is not in a mood to assemble a procedure from two pages. Each has its own copy of the setup yamls for the same reason. Both are explicit that the restore is destructive, and both give the webhook's requirements as a table rather than leaving them to be discovered by trial: fullDBRepository because a manifest-only restore cannot repopulate a wiped data directory, timeout because the default per-step budget has nothing to do with how long a restore takes, and apply: Always because IfReady waits for a Ready that never arrives once the volumes are gone. The section that matters most is that archiving is disabled and stays disabled. The restore forks the binlog history, so an archiver that resumed on its own would push the new timeline into a repository still holding the abandoned branch -- and a later restore could then replay transactions the operator deliberately rolled back. The pages explain that, say the decision to re-enable is the reader's to make once they have verified the data, and tell them to take a full backup before removing the annotation, since that is what makes later restores skip the abandoned branch. They also note not to leave it off indefinitely, because there is no backup coverage while it is. The VolumeSnapshot page additionally covers what genuinely differs there: only member 0 is built from the snapshot and carries the dataSource, a storage request smaller than the snapshot stalls the restore in Provisioning with nothing on the database saying why, and with a driver that stores snapshots inside the source volume, retainPV: false can take the snapshots with the volumes.

Add the S3 secret file or apply the manifest inline.
The page shows the s3-secret YAML, but kubectl apply -f storage-secret.yaml points to a file that the tutorial never creates or links. A user who follows the commands as shown cannot create the required Secret. Add the file to the same yamls directory and use its versioned URL, or apply the displayed YAML with kubectl apply -f -.

MySQL 8.0 official documentation NOW session time zone UTC_TIMESTAMP
💡 Result:
In MySQL 8.0, the behavior of NOW and UTC_TIMESTAMP regarding time zones is distinct as follows: NOW The NOW function returns the current date and time as a value in the current session time zone [1][2]. The session time zone is controlled by the session variable time_zone, which defaults to the server's global time_zone setting but can be changed by the client [1][3]. Consequently, the output of NOW will shift if you change the session time zone [1]. UTC_TIMESTAMP The UTC_TIMESTAMP function returns the current date and time in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) [2][4]. Its output is not affected by the session time_zone setting [1][3]. Key Differences and Behavior 1. Session Dependency: The session time_zone variable affects functions like NOW, CURTIME, and CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, as well as the storage and retrieval of TIMESTAMP data types (which are converted to/from UTC based on the session time zone) [1][2][5]. It does not affect UTC_TIMESTAMP or data types such as DATE, TIME, and DATETIME [1][3]. 2. Execution Context: Both NOW and UTC_TIMESTAMP are evaluated once per query at the start of statement execution [4]. This means multiple references to these functions within a single query will return the same constant value [4]. 3. Configuration: You can set the session time zone using the command SET time_zone = 'timezone_name_or_offset'; [1][6]. If you find that NOW is returning unexpected values, it is often because the server or session time zone is not set to your expected local time [7]. For further details, refer to the official MySQL 8.0 Reference Manual sections on Time Zone Support and Date and Time Functions [1][2].

Capture the recovery timestamp in UTC.
NOW() uses the MySQL session time zone, while recoveryTimestamp interprets Z as UTC. If the session time zone is not UTC, the restore targets the wrong instant. Use UTC_TIMESTAMP() and format the result as RFC 3339 UTC.

Define MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD for the verification commands.
Direct kubectl exec commands expand $MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD in the local shell. The guide does not define this variable.

Document how to retrieve the mysql-auth Secret, or run the command through a container shell that expands the pod variable. Apply this to lines 496–504 and 509–515.

Verify table data on mysql-2.
The text requires every member, but the commands query demo.demo_table on mysql-0 and mysql-1 only. The membership query from mysql-0 checks replication state, not table contents on mysql-2. Add a mysql-2 query or loop over all three pods.

Align both VolumeSnapshot tutorials and manifests to one CSI provider. The guides document Longhorn, while the manifests use standard-snapshot-vsc, driver.standard.io, and storageClassName: "standard". A user cannot reproduce the documented workflow from these files. Choose one supported provider and use its class name, driver, storage class, and parameters consistently in the guides and manifests.

Both same-database pages told the reader to take a full backup and then remove the suspend annotation. That is backwards. A superseded timeline is discarded only when both it and the timeline after it predate the base backup, and resuming archiving is what creates that following timeline. A backup taken while archiving is still suspended is therefore older than what comes next, the pair is kept rather than dropped, and the abandoned history is replayed into the restore anyway. The wrong order is plausible precisely because the backup succeeds while suspended, so nothing about it looks wrong at the time. Verified live: with the backup taken after the resume, the abandoned timeline is skipped and the restore is correct, on the same repository that had returned resurrected rows minutes earlier. Both pages now give the two commands in the right order, explain the rule they turn on, tell the reader to keep the gap between them short, and state the limit -- that this protects recovery points after the new base backup, not before it.

Both pages said to wait for the sidekick to return before taking the post-restore base backup. Running is not the condition that matters. The restore discovers timelines by listing objects in the repository and taking the first path element, so a timeline exists as far as the restore is concerned only once a binlog has actually been uploaded under it. A timeline it cannot see cannot be the successor that lets the superseded one be dropped -- which is the whole mechanism the backup ordering depends on. On a busy database the distinction never bites, because the archiver uploads the already-closed binlogs as soon as it starts. On a quiet one there may be nothing closed to send and the timeline will not appear until the next rotation, up to a full logRotateInterval later. That is precisely when waiting on the pod would have told the reader they were safe when they were not. Signed-off-by: SK Ali Arman <arman@appscode.com>

Require confirmation of a post-resume binlog upload before creating the full backup.
The current log check can match an older "Archiving binlog" entry immediately, allowing the backup to start before the resumed archiver has published the new timeline. Record the resume time and follow logs from that point, or verify the new timeline object in the repository before creating the full backup.

A restore forks the binlog history, and until a base backup exists that is newer than the fork, a later restore of the same database can replay the branch this one abandoned -- returning rows that were deliberately discarded and dropping rows that were committed, while every status object reports success. That makes these steps part of completing the restore rather than good hygiene afterwards, and both same-database pages now say so where the reader decides whether to bother. Signed-off-by: SK Ali Arman <arman@appscode.com>
Both VolumeSnapshotter guides now cover what happens to the spec.dataSource a snapshot restore puts on the members' claims: it is removed before the restore finishes, by rebuilding each claim around the volume it is already bound to, so nothing is copied. The same-db guide previously said the opposite -- that the dataSource "stays on member 0's PVC for the life of the claim" and is inert. That was true when it was written and is not any more. Both guides also state how many claims carry it, which the strategy decides: sync builds only member 0 from the snapshot, none builds every member. The old text described the sync case as if it were the only one. Records kubedb.com/strip-pvc-datasource: "false" as the way to turn it off, what turning it off costs (each rebuilt claim restarts its member, so a none restore restarts each of them once), and that a single-replica database skips the rebuild regardless since it has no peer to fall back on. The Restic guides are untouched: that path never sets a dataSource, so the annotation has nothing to act on there. Signed-off-by: SK Ali Arman <arman@appscode.com>

Document dataSource behavior for every supported strategy.
The guide defines fscopy and clone at Lines 396-402, but this section describes only sync and none. Add fscopy and clone to the mapping, or state that the explanation is limited to the two documented strategies. Based on the strategy descriptions, fscopy uses member 0 only, while clone restores each member independently.

🌐 Web query:
kubectl jsonpath output object map[apiGroup kind name] raw object .spec.dataSource
💡 Result:
When using the -o=jsonpath output format in kubectl, complex objects (such as maps or nested structures) are often rendered in Go's internal representation format (e.g., map[key:value]) rather than standard JSON [1][2]. This occurs because the JSONPath implementation in kubectl is designed to extract values for display rather than to generate strictly parseable JSON data structures [3][2]. If you require valid, machine-parseable JSON output for nested objects like spec.dataSource, you should use the -o=jsonpath-as-json output flag or combine kubectl with a tool like jq [1][4]. Recommended Approaches: 1. Use -o=jsonpath-as-json: This built-in output format forces kubectl to return the result as a properly formatted JSON object [4]. kubectl get -o=jsonpath-as-json='{.spec.dataSource}' 2. Use -o=json and pipe to jq: If you need to manipulate or format the JSON, use the full JSON output and filter it using jq [1]. This is the most robust method for handling complex data: kubectl get -o=json | jq '.spec.dataSource' Using the standard -o=jsonpath='{.spec.dataSource}' will likely result in the map representation (map[apiGroup:value kind:value name:value]) which cannot be directly consumed by JSON parsers [1][2].

site:github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes jsonpath-as-json JSONPathPrinter map[string]interface{} fmt Printf kubectl
💡 Result:
In Kubernetes, jsonpath-as-json is a specific output flag introduced to address limitations in how kubectl handles JSONPath query results [1]. While the standard -o=jsonpath output often prints results using Go-style syntax for complex types (such as maps, slices, and structs), -o=jsonpath-as-json forces the output to be formatted as a JSON array [1]. This is particularly useful when querying for non-primitive types, as it provides consistent, machine-readable JSON rather than the default, non-standard text representation [1]. Technical Context: 1. JSONPathPrinter: This is an internal component in Kubernetes (located within the client-go/util/jsonpath package) responsible for executing JSONPath queries against Kubernetes objects [1][2]. 2. Output Behavior: Before the introduction of jsonpath-as-json, queries returning maps or slices often resulted in Go-style string representations, which were difficult for scripts to parse [1][3]. The JSONPathPrinter was updated to support rendering non-primitive types as valid JSON when the appropriate output flag is invoked [1]. 3. kubectl Integration: When using -o=jsonpath-as-json, kubectl instructs the printer to format the collected results as a JSON list [1]. For example, querying multiple fields or objects will yield a JSON array of those items, which avoids the readability issues associated with concatenated text or Go-style debug printing [1]. Example Usage: Standard jsonpath (Go-style output): $ kubectl get pod -o=jsonpath='{.items[].metadata.name}' pod-a pod-b JSONPath-as-json (Valid JSON output): $ kubectl get pod -o=jsonpath-as-json='{.items[].metadata.name}' [ "pod-a", "pod-b" ] This functionality resolves long-standing requests to make JSONPath output more predictable and compatible with downstream JSON processing tools, such as jq [1][3].

Show output that matches the kubectl command.
-o jsonpath='{.spec.dataSource}' renders the object as a Go-style map[...] value, not JSON. Extract .name or use -o json with jq.

The existing PITR guides restore into a new MySQL object. The ArchiverRestore ops
request rewinds an existing one instead -- same name, same connection string,
same secrets -- so it needs its own page, and the two drivers differ enough in
practice to warrant one each.
Both pages lead with the distinction and say plainly that the operation is
destructive, since that is the part a reader skimming for "how do I restore"
most needs to see. The webhook's requirements are given as a table rather than
discovered by trial: fullDBRepository is required because a manifest-only
restore cannot repopulate a wiped data directory, timeout because the default
per-step budget has nothing to do with how long a restore takes, and apply must
be Always because IfReady waits for a Ready that never arrives once the volumes
are gone.
Two things are documented because they are easy to get wrong and hard to
diagnose. Archiving is suspended by the restore and deliberately never resumed,
so both pages explain why -- the restore forks the binlog history -- and tell the
reader to take a full backup before removing the annotation, which is what makes
later restores skip the abandoned branch. And on the VolumeSnapshot side, a
storage request smaller than the snapshot leaves the restore stalled in
Provisioning with nothing on the database to say why, which is easy to hit after
a volume expansion.
The VolumeSnapshot page also covers what actually differs there: only member 0 is
built from the snapshot and carries the dataSource, the rest are seeded by group
replication, and with a CSI driver whose snapshots live inside the source volume
retainPV: false can take the snapshots with the volumes.
