Restoring Replica Set Instance to a Point in Time

Scenarios

You can restore the data of a replica set instance to a specified time point.

Restoration Precautions

Constraints

Data can be restored to a specified time point only after the automated backup policy is enabled.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the DDS console.
  2. On the Instance Management page, click the target replica set instance.
  3. In the navigation pane on the left, click Backups & Restorations.
  4. On the Backups & Restorations page, click Restore to Point In Time.
  5. Select the date and time range, select or enter a time point within the acceptable range, and select Create New Instance or Restore to Original.
  6. On the displayed page, the DB instance is restored based on the restoration method you selected in 5.

    • Create New Instance

      The Create New Instance page is displayed for you to create a DB instance using the backup data. The new DB instance is independent from the original one.

      • The database type, DB instance type, compatible MongoDB version, storage engine, and storage type must be the same as those of the original and cannot be changed.
      • The storage space is the same as that of the original instance by default. You can only increase the storage space.
    • Restore to Original
      • Restoring to the original DB instance will overwrite all existing data and the DB instance will be temporarily unavailable during the restoration.
      • The administrator password of the database instance remains unchanged after the restoration.
