How do I configure Proxmox VE backups for disaster recovery?
In this guide, we will configure Proxmox VE backups for disaster recovery using Pulumi. We will create an S3 bucket to store the backups and an IAM role with the necessary permissions to access the bucket. This setup ensures that your Proxmox VE backups are securely stored and easily accessible for recovery.
import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as aws from "@pulumi/aws";
// Create an S3 bucket to store Proxmox VE backups
const backupBucket = new aws.s3.Bucket("proxmox-backup-bucket", {
versioning: {
enabled: true,
},
serverSideEncryptionConfiguration: {
rule: {
applyServerSideEncryptionByDefault: {
sseAlgorithm: "AES256",
},
},
},
});
// Create an IAM role for Proxmox VE to access the S3 bucket
const backupRole = new aws.iam.Role("proxmox-backup-role", {
assumeRolePolicy: aws.iam.assumeRolePolicyForPrincipal({ Service: "ec2.amazonaws.com" }),
});
// Attach a policy to the role to allow access to the S3 bucket
const backupPolicy = new aws.iam.RolePolicy("proxmox-backup-policy", {
role: backupRole.id,
policy: pulumi.output(backupBucket.arn).apply(arn => JSON.stringify({
Version: "2012-10-17",
Statement: [
{
Effect: "Allow",
Action: [
"s3:PutObject",
"s3:GetObject",
"s3:ListBucket",
],
Resource: [
arn,
`${arn}/*`,
],
},
],
})),
});
// Export the bucket name and IAM role ARN
export const bucketName = backupBucket.bucket;
export const roleArn = backupRole.arn;
Key Points
- We created an S3 bucket with versioning and server-side encryption enabled to store Proxmox VE backups securely.
- An IAM role was created with a policy that grants the necessary permissions to access the S3 bucket.
- The bucket name and IAM role ARN are exported for use in Proxmox VE configuration.
Summary
In this guide, we configured Proxmox VE backups for disaster recovery by creating an S3 bucket and an IAM role with the necessary permissions using Pulumi. This setup ensures that your backups are securely stored and easily accessible for recovery.
