      Feature Request Overview
      Develop a backup & restore procedure for the relevant OVN and OVS data so that it is possible to roll-back to a known working state if an in-place update fails during the OVN part of the update.

      Business justification

      During the course of an in-place update or upgrade of RHOSO, it is possible that something may go wrong during the parts where OVN or OVS get updated/upgraded.

      It is fairly often that there are schema updates done for OVN during these updates/upgrades and it is also possible that there may be an OVS schema upgrade that happens.

      When schema changes happen, a simple roll-back of the container & configuration is not enough to revert the environment to a known working state - there needs to be some sort of backup & restore process.

      Part of any change management process is the ability to roll-back from a failed change. Having this available empowers the customer to revert to a working state and figure out what went wrong without impact to the business.

      Functional requirements /Acceptance Criteria

      • A procedure for backing up the relevant data
      • A procedure for using the backup to revert to a working state
