# Nomadic BORG
Run periodic backups using Hashicorp Nomad's __Periodic Stanza__ with the [BORG](https://mpolinowski.github.io/docs/DevOps/Linux/2022-11-09--docker-borg-backupserver/2022-11-09) Docker container by [@pschiffe](https://hub.docker.com/u/pschiffe):
```bash
type = "batch"
periodic {
cron = "@daily"
}
reschedule {
attempts = 0
unlimited = false
}
```
See [backup-service.tf](https://github.com/mpolinowski/nomadic-borg/blob/master/backup-service.tf) for an example to backup the MariaDB Database data directory of an PHP CMS ([OSTicket](https://github.com/mpolinowski/osticket-nomad)).
## Restore a Backup
A [restore can be run manually](https://mpolinowski.github.io/docs/DevOps/Hashicorp/2022-11-11-hashicorp-nomad-for-borg-backups/2022-11-11#restore) and then copied to the data directory restoring the old database. To find the correct backup we have to find the short allocation ID for the backup job run:
In the case above it is `c0c8ec8d`. We have to use the `ARCHIVE=c0c8ec8d` environment variable accordingly to retrieve your data:
```bash
docker run \
--rm \
-e BORG_REPO=/opt/borg \
-e ARCHIVE=c0c8ec8d \
-e BORG_PASSPHRASE=mypassword \
-e EXTRACT_TO=/borg/output \
-v /opt/borg/config:/root \
-v /opt/borg/repo:/opt/borg \
-v /opt/borg/output:/borg/output/data \
--security-opt label:disable \
--name borg-backup \
pschiffe/borg
...
terminating with success status, rc 0
```
