一、gitlab备份
1.确定备份目录
gitlab 默认的备份目录为/var/opt/gitlab/backups，可通过配置gitlab.rb配置文件进行修改，如：
[root@localhost ~]# vim /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
#若要修改备份文件的存储目录话，打开下面选项的注释并修改为自己的备份路径即可；#gitlab_rails['backup_path'] = "/var/opt/gitlab/backups"
#gitlab备份所保留的时长，默认为七天
#Limit backup lifetime to 7 days - 604800 seconds
#gitlab_rails['backup_keep_time'] = 604800
2.创建备份
[root@localhost ~]# gitlab-backup create
#或者使用
[root@localhost ~]# gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create
2023-03-15 23:01:47 -0400 -- Dumping database ...

Warning: Your gitlab.rb and gitlab-secrets.json files contain sensitive data
and are not included in this backup. You will need these files to restore a
backup.
Please back them up manually.
Backup task is done.
3.查看备份的文件
备份文件的格式为：EPOCH_YYYY_MM_DD_GitLab version_gitlab_backup.tar
二、GitLab备份恢复
1.gitlab恢复数据前提：
GitLab的版本必须要与备份数据的版本一致！！！
2.GitLab恢复步骤
1：确保GitLab服务的启动可正常访问，并且版本必须和备份的数据版本一致；
2：在恢复备份副本(备份文件)之前，首先确保本分副本位于/var/opt/gitlab/backups目录中；
3：停止GitLab的数据库相关进程；
[root@localhost backups]# gitlab-ctl stop unicorn
[root@localhost backups]# gitlab-ctl stop sidekiq
ok: down: sidekiq: 0s, normally up
[root@localhost backups]# gitlab-ctl stop puma
ok: down: puma: 1s, normally up
4：验证GitLab服务的状态；
[root@localhost backups]# gitlab-ctl status
run: alertmanager: (pid 215917) 83981s; run: log: (pid 15049) 202063s
run: gitaly: (pid 215926) 83980s; run: log: (pid 14326) 202224s
run: gitlab-exporter: (pid 215486) 84087s; run: log: (pid 14940) 202089s
run: gitlab-kas: (pid 215488) 84087s; run: log: (pid 14646) 202204s
run: gitlab-workhorse: (pid 215498) 84087s; run: log: (pid 14810) 202111s
run: grafana: (pid 215506) 84086s; run: log: (pid 15347) 201991s
run: logrotate: (pid 349753) 1282s; run: log: (pid 14230) 202236s
run: nginx: (pid 215522) 84086s; run: log: (pid 174881) 107021s
run: node-exporter: (pid 215532) 84085s; run: log: (pid 14899) 202095s
run: postgres-exporter: (pid 215538) 84086s; run: log: (pid 15185) 202053s
run: postgresql: (pid 215546) 84085s; run: log: (pid 14502) 202212s
run: prometheus: (pid 215555) 84085s; run: log: (pid 15003) 202076s
down: puma: 18s, normally up; run: log: (pid 140781) 127605s
run: redis: (pid 215576) 84084s; run: log: (pid 14276) 202231s
run: redis-exporter: (pid 215582) 84084s; run: log: (pid 14968) 202084s
down: sidekiq: 239s, normally up; run: log: (pid 14757) 202123s
5：现在，使用备份副本的时间戳恢复备份；
恢复命令如下
gitlab-backup restore BACKUP=1678977671_2023_03_16_14.9.5
或
gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:restore BACKUP=1678977671_2023_03_16_14.9.5
BACKUP=备份归档文件时间戳 ： 使用指定的备份归档文件进行恢复
[root@localhost backups]# gitlab-backup restore BACKUP=1678977671_2023_03_16_14.9.5

and are not included in this backup. You will need to restore these files manually.
Restore task is done.
在上面恢复的过程中可以看到有三处ERROR，这时不要慌张，急忙去打断恢复，亲测这三处ERROR不影响后续的恢复数据！只是权限的问题，下面会补充解决方案；
注：可以在执行恢复命令时添加force=yes参数，这个参数的意思是在恢复过程中不再进行交互式询问（不用再输入yes了）；
命令如下：
gitlab-backup restore force=yes BACKUP=1678977671_2023_03_16_14.9.5
或
gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:restore force=yes BACKUP=1678977671_2023_03_16_14.9.5
6：重新加载重新启动GitLab组件：
[root@localhost backups]# gitlab-ctl reconfigure
[root@localhost backups]# gitlab-ctl restart
ok: run: alertmanager: (pid 352840) 1s
ok: run: gitaly: (pid 352850) 0s
ok: run: gitlab-exporter: (pid 352864) 0s
ok: run: gitlab-kas: (pid 352866) 0s
ok: run: gitlab-workhorse: (pid 352872) 1s
ok: run: grafana: (pid 352884) 1s
ok: run: logrotate: (pid 352893) 0s
ok: run: nginx: (pid 352899) 0s
ok: run: node-exporter: (pid 352901) 0s
ok: run: postgres-exporter: (pid 352910) 0s
ok: run: postgresql: (pid 352921) 0s
ok: run: prometheus: (pid 352926) 0s
ok: run: puma: (pid 352928) 1s
ok: run: redis: (pid 352946) 1s
ok: run: redis-exporter: (pid 352952) 0s
ok: run: sidekiq: (pid 352958) 0
7：通过清理数据库来检查GitLab组件是否都正常
[root@localhost backups]# gitlab-rake gitlab:check SANITIZE=true
8：验证数据是否恢复
