Greetings Foreman community,
I am wondering if someone out there has the answer to what would happen in the following scenario:
-
Main Katello servers have been backed up with foreman maintain sometime in the past
-
Clients have hooked into Smart Proxies and successfully registered to both the Smart Proxies and the Main Katello Servers but this has occurred after the backup tar ball was taken.
-
The Smart Proxies exist in that original back up but some of the clients registered to them have been registered after the full backup
-
If we experience disaster and have to restore the original tarball to the main Katello servers will all the clients hooked into the Smart Proxies be there or no? If not, will synchronizing the Smart Proxies with either a smart or full sync get all our clients back or just those that were there when the original backup was taken?
Hope that makes sense.
Cheers,
- Eledor
