# rest-server-ana Anaheim-site restic backup endpoint. Replaces the older `restic` stack on ana-docker with the same auth model as `rest-server-nh3` on the Synology, so every client host uses identical URL shapes against either endpoint. **Server:** ana-docker (`10.250.50.70`) **Port:** `http://10.250.50.70:8000` **Data root:** `/mnt/backup/restic/repo/` (NFS mount on the host, served by the Debian file server at `10.250.50.50`) ## Data layout The NFS export at `/mnt/backup/restic/repo/` is partitioned by site into three sibling subdirs: | Path | Role | |---|---| | `/mnt/backup/restic/repo/ana/` | **Live data served by this rest-server.** Each Anaheim-side host writes its repo under here (e.g. `ana/ana-docker/`, `ana/ana-ml2/`). `.htpasswd` also lives here. | | `/mnt/backup/restic/repo/esh/` | Destination for mirroring ESH-site backups to Anaheim (cross-site redundancy; not yet wired up). | | `/mnt/backup/restic/repo/nh3/` | Destination for mirroring NH3-site backups (from the Synology `rest-server-nh3`) into Anaheim. Same — pending. | The rest-server container is configured with `/mnt/backup/restic/repo/ana` as its data root (see compose's `DATA_DIR` env), so clients use URLs of the form `rest:http://user:pw@10.250.50.70:8000//` — the `` path is relative to `ana/`. The two mirror dirs (`esh/`, `nh3/`) aren't served by restic at all; they're rsync destinations. Paired with: - **`rest-server-nh3`** on the Synology (`10.100.50.50:8000`, data on Btrfs). - A cross-site rsync job (TBD, on ana-docker) that mirrors each site's data tree to the other so either NAS can fully restore either site's hosts. ## What changed from the old `restic` stack | | old `restic` on ana-docker | this stack | |---|---|---| | `--private-repos` | no | **yes** | | `--append-only` | no | **yes** | | `--prometheus` | no | **yes** | | healthcheck | no | yes | | `.env`-driven | no | yes | | restart policy | none | `unless-stopped` | | image version | floating `latest` | `${REST_SERVER_VERSION}` | | stack dir on server | `/opt/docker/compose/restic/` | `/opt/docker/compose/rest-server-ana/` | Data path is unchanged (`/mnt/backup/restic/repo/ana/`) so nothing new needs to be allocated on the NAS. ## Pre-deploy: clean the data dir and create htpasswd Since there's nothing in the existing path we want to keep, start fresh so the on-disk layout matches `--private-repos`: ```bash ssh ana-docker ' # Stop the old stack so port 8000 and the data dir are free cd /opt/docker/compose/restic docker compose down # Wipe the old non-private-repos layout sudo rm -rf /mnt/backup/restic/repo/ana/* sudo rm -rf /mnt/backup/restic/repo/ana/.htpasswd # if present # Create the htpasswd file. Use the same passwords here as on the NH3 # Synology so each host has one credential that works at either endpoint. sudo touch /mnt/backup/restic/repo/ana/.htpasswd sudo chmod 600 /mnt/backup/restic/repo/ana/.htpasswd ' # Generate htpasswd entries locally (one per host) and append. Using the # `httpd:2.4-alpine` throwaway container so we do not depend on # apache2-utils being installed on ana-docker. for user in ana-docker ana-ml2 nh3-docker esh-docker-vm; do read -rs -p "password for $user (must match the NH3 Synology): " pw; echo docker run --rm httpd:2.4-alpine htpasswd -nbB "$user" "$pw" \ | ssh ana-docker 'sudo tee -a /mnt/backup/restic/repo/ana/.htpasswd >/dev/null' done ``` If you run that locally and don't have Docker here, equivalent on the server: ```bash ssh ana-docker "docker run --rm httpd:2.4-alpine htpasswd -nbB ''" \ | ssh ana-docker 'sudo tee -a /mnt/backup/restic/repo/ana/.htpasswd >/dev/null' ``` ## Deploy Stage the new stack and push it: ```bash # Stage the stack into the mirror (if not already done via sync-stacks.sh) mkdir -p stacks-mirror/ana-docker/rest-server-ana cp stacks/rest-server-ana/compose.yaml stacks/rest-server-ana/.env.example \ stacks-mirror/ana-docker/rest-server-ana/ scripts/deploy-stack.sh ana-docker rest-server-ana ``` Confirm at the prompt. Then on the server: ```bash ssh ana-docker ' cd /opt/docker/compose/rest-server-ana cp -n .env.example .env docker compose config docker compose up -d docker compose logs --tail=30 ' ``` ## Retire the old stack Once the new one is healthy and the first repo has initialized successfully from a client: ```bash ssh ana-docker ' cd /opt/docker/compose/restic docker compose down # Optionally remove the old stack dir (keep it for a release or two # in case you need to roll back): # rm -rf /opt/docker/compose/restic ' ``` ## Verify ```bash # 401 from the root — service up, auth enforced curl -sS -o /dev/null -w 'unauth status=%{http_code}\n' \ http://10.250.50.70:8000/ # 200 / 404 from a real user+password — auth valid, --private-repos path OK curl -sS -o /dev/null -w 'auth status=%{http_code}\n' \ -u ana-docker: http://10.250.50.70:8000/ana-docker/ # Init a repo from a client host (one-time per host) ssh ana-docker ' export RESTIC_REPOSITORY="rest:http://ana-docker:@10.250.50.70:8000/ana-docker/" export RESTIC_PASSWORD="" restic init ' ``` ## Prune ceremony Same as `rest-server-nh3` — prune is blocked by `--append-only`. Two options, pick one per endpoint: - **Temporary flag flip:** edit compose, remove `--append-only` from `OPTIONS`, `docker compose up -d`, run `restic forget --prune` from origin hosts, put the flag back, `docker compose up -d`. Quarterly change. - **Second endpoint on a different port:** stand up a sibling container (e.g. port `8001`) against the same data dir without `--append-only`, reachable only from a trusted host. Everyday backups still hit `:8000`. If you go the second-endpoint route, copy this stack to `stacks/rest-server-ana-prune/` with `REST_PORT=8001` and `--append-only` removed from the compose. ## Off-site replication Scheduled on ana-docker (to be written). Mirror destinations live in the sibling subdirs described under "Data layout" above: ```bash # Pull NH3's tree into ana-docker's /mnt/backup/restic/repo/nh3/ rsync -avz --delete admin@10.100.50.50:/volume1/Backup/restic/ /mnt/backup/restic/repo/nh3/ # Pull the ESH rest-server's tree into /mnt/backup/restic/repo/esh/ # (once an ESH rest-server is set up — currently ESH hosts write directly # to this Anaheim rest-server at ana/esh-*) # Push our tree (ana/) to NH3 for redundancy in the other direction rsync -avz --delete /mnt/backup/restic/repo/ana/ admin@10.100.50.50:/volume1/Backup/restic-mirror-ana/ ``` Each sync unidirectional, running in the direction its data flows. Prune runs only at the origin so the mirror shrinks correctly.
