The Vertica test suite includes a series of tests that focus on database protection and recovery. These tests include database backup, database recovery, and database revive tests. These tests are described here.
Description | Details |
Database Backup Test | The backup test makes a backup of the database to a different bucket. This would be like a snapshot in time. |
Database Restore Test | The restore test restores a database that was previously backed up. |
Database Revive Test | Revive is basically simulating that you lost your physical hosts and built a replacement cluster. In Eon Mode with separation for compute and storage you can change the hardware and then revive the database from communal storage to the new hardware. |
