couchbase-backup-restorelisted

Plan and execute Couchbase backup and restore operations. Use whenever the user asks about backup, restore, cbbackupmgr, backup repository, backup archive, full backup, incremental backup, differential backup, backup schedule, retention policy, backup verification, Capella managed backup, backup to S3, backup to filesystem, restoring a bucket, restoring specific documents, admin_backup_* tools, or 'how do I back up / restore Couchbase.' Distinct from couchbase-migration-execution (one-time data migration to a new cluster) and couchbase-mcp (operating the tools). Use proactively for DR planning, RPO/RTO requirements, backup verification workflows, and pre-upgrade snapshots.

# Couchbase Backup & Restore A skill for *planning and executing* Couchbase backup and restore operations — both self-managed (cbbackupmgr) and Capella-managed. Distinct from: - `couchbase-migration-execution` — one-time data migration, not recurring backup - `couchbase-mcp` — the `admin_backup_*` tools that interact with the Backup service ## When this skill applies - "How do I back up Couchbase?" - "What's cbbackupmgr?" - "How do I set up a backup schedule?" - "Full vs incremental backup — what's the difference?" - "How do I restore from backup?" - "How do I restore just one bucket, or just a few documents?" - "How do I back up to S3?" - "How do I verify my backups are actually working?" - "What's the RPO/RTO I can achieve?" - "How does Capella handle backups?" ## Pick the right reference | Question | Read | |---|---| | "cbbackupmgr commands — config, backup, restore, list, merge, examine" | `references/cbbackupmgr.md` | | "Backup strategy — full vs incremental, schedules, retention, S3" | `references/strategy.md` | | "How to restore — full cluster, single bucket, single document, point-in-time" | `references/restore.md` | | "Capella managed backups — schedules, retention, restore" | `references/capella-backups.md` | ## Three core principles **Principle 1 — An untested backup is not a backup.** Run a restore drill regularly — quarterly at minimum, monthly for production data. `cbbackupmgr examine` lets you inspect backup contents without a full restore.
