Velero

The Velero analyzer is available to check statuses of Custom Resources installed by velero, such as: backup storage locations, backup repositories, backups and restores.

Parameters​

collectorName: (N/A) Velero currently does not require a special collector as all the Custom Resources are already collected in support bundle by the Cluster Resources collector.

Example Analyzer Definition​

apiVersion: troubleshoot.sh/v1beta2
kind: SupportBundle
metadata:
  name: velero
spec:
  collectors:
    - clusterResources: {} # implicitly added if not defined in a spec
    - logs:
        namespace: velero
        name: velero/logs
  analyzers:
    - velero: {}

Note

For the logs collector:

  • name should always be velero/logs as it's the default path created in support bundle to be then used by velero analyzer.
  • namespace could be changed to any other namespace in case velero was installed in a different namespace.
