Hi Benoit, Yes, it's possible to write a backup and recovery plugin. The framework exposes interfaces that your plugin or an external service managed by the plugin can execute/implement. For example, taking backup, restoring backup to primary storage etc. Depending on what/how you're integrating it the B&R framework itself may required to be refactored to accomodate the new plugin.
If it helps you can look into the current B&R framework and plugin (see the dummy provider for example) or the original pull request for implementation details - https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/3553 Regards. ________________________________ From: benoit lair <kurushi4...@gmail.com> Sent: Friday, September 3, 2021 17:38 To: dev@cloudstack.apache.org <dev@cloudstack.apache.org>; us...@cloudstack.apache.org <us...@cloudstack.apache.org> Subject: Feature Cloudstack 4.15 Hi , I am trying to use Backup and Recovery Framework with ACS 4.15.1 I would like to implement it with Xcp-NG servers What i see is that only Veeam with Vmware is ready Would it be possible to have an interface in order to define a custom External Provider (3rd Party Backup Solutions like bacula, amanda or backuppc ) like described here : https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Backup+and+Recovery+Framework I was thinking about a form giving the commands to execute for each type of Backup API Call of the framework Thanks for your help and ideas Regards, Benoit
