Zalando Standby Cluster using MinIO

zalando_standby_minio.md

To set-up wal shipping in primary cluster:

1. In the file manifests/configmap.yaml, uncomment the line containing wal_s3_bucket and set it to the bucket name created in MinIO.
2. And then, add the following lines to the same file:

  pod_environment_configmap: postgres-pod-config
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: postgres-pod-config
  namespace: default
data:
  AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: <MinIO access key>
  AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: <MinIO secret key>
  AWS_S3_FORCE_PATH_STYLE: "true"
  AWS_REGION: us-east-1
  AWS_ENDPOINT: <MinIO endpoint (e.g. http://<MinIO server IP>:9000)>
  USE_WALG_BACKUP: "true"
  WALG_DISABLE_S3_SSE: "true"

To set-up replication in standby cluster:

1. Add the following to the file manifests/configmap.yaml

  pod_environment_configmap: postgres-pod-config
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: postgres-pod-config
  namespace: default
data:
  STANDBY_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: <MinIO access key>
  STANDBY_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: <MinIO secret key>
  STANDBY_WALE_ENV_DIR: /home/postgres/etc/wal-e.d/env-standby
  STANDBY_USE_WALG_RESTORE: "true"
  STANDBY_AWS_S3_FORCE_PATH_STYLE: "true"
  STANDBY_AWS_REGION: us-east-1
  STANDBY_AWS_ENDPOINT: <MinIO endpoint (e.g. http://<MinIO Server IP>:9000)>

2. In the file manifests/standby-manifest.yaml, edit s3_wal_path to use the bucket/path name from the MinIO. For example,

s3_wal_path: "s3://<bucket_name>/spilo/acid-minimal-cluster/1a793032-ba83-11e9-8bc8-080027377c7c/wal/"

3. Finally start the operator/pods with this manifest (standby-manifest.yaml).

It is the uid of the primary cluster (not standby cluster). You can get it by running the following command:
kubectl get postgresql <primary_cluster_name> -o=jsonpath='{.metadata.uid}'

Have you tried this with this version? spilo-14:2.1-p3

In this version it seems that there is a typo somewhere and the wal-fetch command keeps failing with the error/warning

Usage: /scripts/wal-e-wal-fetch.sh wal-fetch [--prefetch PREFETCH] WAL_SEGMENT WAL_DESTINATION
