- backup
e.g. something like deja dup? or something like the snapshot role for LVM snapshot management?
This is https://galaxy.ansible.com/ui/standalone/roles/robertdebock/backup/ which creates archives, mysql and postgresql dumps on the managed node and copies them over to the control node.
I really like the design, which seems easily extendable.
- maintenance
What does "maintenance" mean in this content? maintenance of backups and the storage used for backups?
This is https://galaxy.ansible.com/ui/standalone/roles/robertdebock/maintenance/ which empties a number of caches, cleans up logs and removes a selection of files.
The gory details are in https://galaxy.ansible.com/ui/standalone/roles/robertdebock/maintenance/
- restore
I guess the backup tool would handle this.
This is https://galaxy.ansible.com/ui/standalone/roles/robertdebock/restore/ which takes the objects created by the backup role and restores them.
In practice, the two roles go hand in hand.
