So i retried backup using the steps and precautions you outlined, sadly this didn’t work.
The backup attempt was done on a single node, single replica cluster. So there was only one single alpha to check for credentials. The data was added to dgraph in 3 steps (20k,40k and 60k nodes), with each step being backed up with the binary backup commands. At the end of this i got three different folders on aws:
And here is the structure of each folder:
Here are the corresponding manifest.json files
manifest (2).json (850 Bytes)
manifest (1).json (850 Bytes)
manifest.json (843 Bytes)
here are my alpha logs around the backup time:
dgraph_logs.txt (69.1 KB)
dgraph_logs2.txt (18.8 KB)
