What are my options to restore in vitess?
When a tablet starts, Vitess checks the value of the --restore_from_backup
command-line flag to determine whether to restore a backup to that tablet.
- If the flag is present, Vitess tries to restore the most recent backup from the Backup Storage system when starting the tablet.
- If the flag is absent, Vitess does not try to restore a backup to the tablet. The MYSQL database associated with the tablet will be empty.
