2025-1201 IP-Change Restore Example

  • Always use S3 for backups
  • Enable adequate, constant, consistent backups
  • Single-Nodes for Development, ensure quick turnaround

Example ...

Address changed from .147 to .180 ... Verified the timestamp was the same from 11/21 locally & in S3. Do not require full-path for S3 bucket data.

  • sudo systemctl disable --now rke2-server
  • rke2 server --cluster-reset --cluster-reset-restore-path=etcd-snapshot-zalg113.gxize.local-1763724124
  • sudo systemctl enable --now rke2-server

Always destroy the cluster when you need to change any kubernetes ip address assignments or allocations, and recreate from scratch. Proper backup posture will assist in this situation.
