oz0 server backup record
Record that the management database was backed up at a time with PostgreSQL's own tools (pg_dump, pgBackRest, a volume snapshot), as `server backup` records its own.
For: Operators and developers looking up a command.
Record that the management database was backed up at a time with PostgreSQL's own tools (pg_dump, pgBackRest, a volume snapshot), as server backup records its own. oz0 doctor warns when the newest recorded backup is older than the newest tenant payload key: histories written with that key could not be opened after a database loss. TIME is when the backup's snapshot began, in RFC 3339 (2026-10-08T03:00:00Z).
Usage
oz0 server backup record --taken-at TIME [flags]
Flags
| Flag | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--data-dir | string | ~/.local/share/orchestrator-zero | server data directory |
--db-file | file | a file (- for stdin) holding the PostgreSQL URL of the management database, such as postgres://oz0:PASSWORD@db:5432/oz0 (or set OZ0_DB); the URL can carry a password, so it never goes on the command line | |
--dev | bool | a dev server's data directory (--data-dir) instead of a cluster's database | |
--note | string | which backup, such as its name in pgBackRest: one line, kept in the audit log | |
--taken-at | string | when the backup's snapshot began, in RFC 3339 |
Inherited flags
| Flag | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--context | string | $OZ0_CONTEXT or <config dir>/orchestrator-zero/context.json | CLI context file written by server init |
--log-level | string | info | log level: debug, info, warn or error |
