Blockchain Time Machine.
BTM is an incremental data backup mechanism that does not require downtime.
btm will give you the following abilities or advantages:
- fall back to the data state of a desired block height instantly
- the atomicity of snapshot data can be guaranteed
- hot backup during operation, no downtime is needed
- based on OS-level infrastructure, stable and reliable
- very small resource usage, almost no performance damage
- ...
use btm::{BtmCfg, SnapMode, SnapAlgo};
let cfg = BtmCfg {
enable: true,
itv: 10,
cap: 100,
mode: SnapMode::Zfs,
algo: SnapAlgo::Fade,
volume: "zroot/data".to_owned(),
};
// Generate snapshots in some threads.
cfg.snapshot(0).unwrap();
cfg.snapshot(1).unwrap();
cfg.snapshot(11).unwrap();
/// Print all existing snapshots.
cfg.list_snapshots();
/// Rollback to the state of the last snapshot.
cfg.rollback(None, false).unwrap();
/// Rollback to the state of a custom snapshot.
cfg.rollback(Some(11), true).unwrap();
Usage of btm ...
:
btm
USAGE:
btm [FLAGS] [OPTIONS] [SUBCOMMAND]
FLAGS:
-h, --help Prints help information
-C, --snapshot-clean clean up all existing snapshots
-l, --snapshot-list list all available snapshots in the form of block height
-x, --snapshot-rollback rollback to the last available snapshot
-V, --version Prints version information
OPTIONS:
-r, --snapshot-rollback-to <Height>
rollback to a custom height, will try the closest smaller height if the target does not exist
-R, --snapshot-rollback-to-exact <Height>
rollback to a custom height exactly, an error will be reported if the target does not exist
-p, --snapshot-target <TargetPath> a data volume containing both ledger data and tendermint data
SUBCOMMANDS:
daemon
help Prints this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)
Usage of btm daemon ...
:
btm-daemon
USAGE:

OPTIONS:
-a, --snapshot-algo <Algo> fair/fade, default to `fair`
-c, --snapshot-cap <Capacity> the maximum number of snapshots that will be stored, default to 100
-i, --snapshot-itv <Iterval> interval between adjacent snapshots, default to 10 blocks
-m, --snapshot-mode <Mode> zfs/btrfs/external, will try a guess if missing
-p, --snapshot-target <TargetPath> a data volume containing both ledger data and tendermint data
