-# Back up GitLab **(FREE SELF)**
+This document was moved to [another location](../administration/backup_restore/backup_gitlab.md).
 
-GitLab provides a command line interface to back up your entire instance,
-including:
-
-- Database
-- Attachments
-- Git repositories data
-- CI/CD job output logs
-- CI/CD job artifacts
-- LFS objects
-- Terraform states ([introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/331806) in GitLab 14.7)
-- Container Registry images
-- GitLab Pages content
-- Packages ([introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/332006) in GitLab 14.7)
-- Snippets
-- [Group wikis](../user/project/wiki/group.md)
-- Project-level Secure Files ([introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/121142) in GitLab 16.1)
-
-Backups do not include:
-
-- [Mattermost data](https://docs.mattermost.com/administration/config-settings.html#file-storage)
-- Redis (and thus Sidekiq jobs)
-
-WARNING:
-GitLab does not back up any configuration files (`/etc/gitlab`), TLS keys and certificates, or system
-files. You are highly advised to read about [storing configuration files](#storing-configuration-files).
-
-WARNING:
-The backup command requires [additional parameters](backup_restore.md#back-up-and-restore-for-installations-using-pgbouncer) when
-your installation is using PgBouncer, for either performance reasons or when using it with a Patroni cluster.
-
-WARNING:
-Before GitLab 15.5.0, the backup command doesn't verify if another backup is already running, as described in
-[issue 362593](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/362593). We strongly recommend
-you make sure that all backups are complete before starting a new one.
-
-Depending on your version of GitLab, use the following command if you installed
-GitLab using the Omnibus package:
-
-- GitLab 12.2 or later:
-
-  ```shell
-  sudo gitlab-backup create
-  ```
-
-- GitLab 12.1 and earlier:
-
-  ```shell
-  gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create
-  ```
-
-If you installed GitLab from source, use the following command:
-
-```shell
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create RAILS_ENV=production
-```
-
-If you're running GitLab from within a Docker container, run the backup from
-the host, based on your installed version of GitLab:
-
-- GitLab 12.2 or later:
-
-  ```shell
-  docker exec -t <container name> gitlab-backup create
-  ```
-
-- GitLab 12.1 and earlier:
-
-  ```shell
-  docker exec -t <container name> gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create
-  ```
-
-If you're using the [GitLab Helm chart](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/charts/gitlab)
-on a Kubernetes cluster, you can run the backup task by using `kubectl` to run the `backup-utility`
-script on the GitLab toolbox pod. For more details, see the
-[charts backup documentation](https://docs.gitlab.com/charts/backup-restore/backup.html).
-
-Similar to the Kubernetes case, if you have scaled out your GitLab cluster to
-use multiple application servers, you should pick a designated node (that isn't
-auto-scaled away) for running the backup Rake task. Because the backup Rake
-task is tightly coupled to the main Rails application, this is typically a node
-on which you're also running Puma or Sidekiq.
-
-Example output:
-
-```plaintext

-
-## Storing configuration files
-
-The [backup Rake task](#back-up-gitlab) GitLab provides does _not_ store your
-configuration files. The primary reason for this is that your database contains
-items including encrypted information for two-factor authentication and the
-CI/CD _secure variables_. Storing encrypted information in the same location
-as its key defeats the purpose of using encryption in the first place.
-
-WARNING:
-The secrets file is essential to preserve your database encryption key.
-
-At the very **minimum**, you must back up:
-
-For Omnibus:
-
-- `/etc/gitlab/gitlab-secrets.json`
-- `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`
-
-For installation from source:
-
-- `/home/git/gitlab/config/secrets.yml`
-- `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`
-
-For [Docker installations](../install/docker.md), you must
-back up the volume where the configuration files are stored. If you created
-the GitLab container according to the documentation, it should be in the
-`/srv/gitlab/config` directory.
-
-For [GitLab Helm chart installations](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/charts/gitlab)
-on a Kubernetes cluster, you must follow the
-[Back up the secrets](https://docs.gitlab.com/charts/backup-restore/backup.html#back-up-the-secrets)
-instructions.
-
-You may also want to back up any TLS keys and certificates (`/etc/gitlab/ssl`, `/etc/gitlab/trusted-certs`), and your
-[SSH host keys](https://superuser.com/questions/532040/copy-ssh-keys-from-one-server-to-another-server/532079#532079)
-to avoid man-in-the-middle attack warnings if you have to perform a full machine restore.
-
-If you use Omnibus GitLab, review additional information to
-[backup your configuration](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/backups.html).
-
-In the unlikely event that the secrets file is lost, see the
-[troubleshooting section](backup_restore.md#when-the-secrets-file-is-lost).
-
-## Backup options
-
-The command line tool GitLab provides to backup your instance can accept more
-options.
-
-### Backup strategy option
-
-The default backup strategy is to essentially stream data from the respective
-data locations to the backup using the Linux command `tar` and `gzip`. This works
-fine in most cases, but can cause problems when data is rapidly changing.
-
-When data changes while `tar` is reading it, the error `file changed as we read
-it` may occur, and causes the backup process to fail. To combat this, 8.17
-introduces a new backup strategy called `copy`. The strategy copies data files
-to a temporary location before calling `tar` and `gzip`, avoiding the error.
-
-A side-effect is that the backup process takes up to an additional 1X disk
-space. The process does its best to clean up the temporary files at each stage
-so the problem doesn't compound, but it could be a considerable change for large
-installations. This is why the `copy` strategy is not the default in 8.17.
-
-To use the `copy` strategy instead of the default streaming strategy, specify
-`STRATEGY=copy` in the Rake task command. For example:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-backup create STRATEGY=copy
-```
-
-Users of GitLab 12.1 and earlier should use the command `gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create` instead.
-
-### Backup filename
-
-WARNING:
-If you use a custom backup filename, you can't
-[limit the lifetime of the backups](#limit-backup-lifetime-for-local-files-prune-old-backups).
-
-By default, a backup file is created according to the specification in the
-previous [Backup timestamp](backup_restore.md#backup-timestamp) section. You can, however,
-override the `[TIMESTAMP]` portion of the filename by setting the `BACKUP`
-environment variable. For example:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-backup create BACKUP=dump
-```
-
-Users of GitLab 12.1 and earlier should use the command `gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create` instead.
-
-The resulting file is named `dump_gitlab_backup.tar`. This is useful for
-systems that make use of rsync and incremental backups, and results in
-considerably faster transfer speeds.
-
-### Confirm archive can be transferred
-
-To ensure the generated archive is transferable by rsync, you can set the `GZIP_RSYNCABLE=yes`
-option. This sets the `--rsyncable` option to `gzip`, which is useful only in
-combination with setting [the Backup filename option](#backup-filename).
-
-The `--rsyncable` option in `gzip` isn't guaranteed to be available
-on all distributions. To verify that it's available in your distribution, run
-`gzip --help` or consult the man pages.
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-backup create BACKUP=dump GZIP_RSYNCABLE=yes
-```
-
-Users of GitLab 12.1 and earlier should use the command `gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create` instead.
-
-### Excluding specific directories from the backup
-
-You can exclude specific directories from the backup by adding the environment variable `SKIP`, whose values are a comma-separated list of the following options:
-
-- `db` (database)
-- `uploads` (attachments)
-- `builds` (CI job output logs)
-- `artifacts` (CI job artifacts)
-- `lfs` (LFS objects)
-- `terraform_state` (Terraform states)
-- `registry` (Container Registry images)
-- `pages` (Pages content)
-- `repositories` (Git repositories data)
-- `packages` (Packages)
-- `ci_secure_files` (Project-level Secure Files)
-
-NOTE:
-When [backing up and restoring Helm Charts](https://docs.gitlab.com/charts/architecture/backup-restore.html), there is an additional option `packages`, which refers to any packages managed by the GitLab [package registry](../user/packages/package_registry/index.md).
-For more information see [command line arguments](https://docs.gitlab.com/charts/architecture/backup-restore.html#command-line-arguments).
-
-All wikis are backed up as part of the `repositories` group. Non-existent
-wikis are skipped during a backup.
-
-For Omnibus GitLab packages:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-backup create SKIP=db,uploads
-```
-
-Users of GitLab 12.1 and earlier should use the command `gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create` instead.
-
-For installations from source:
-
-```shell
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create SKIP=db,uploads RAILS_ENV=production
-```
-
-`SKIP=` is also used to:
-
-- [Skip creation of the tar file](#skipping-tar-creation) (`SKIP=tar`).
-- [Skip uploading the backup to remote storage](#skip-uploading-backups-to-remote-storage) (`SKIP=remote`).
-
-### Skipping tar creation
-
-NOTE:
-It is not possible to skip the tar creation when using [object storage](#upload-backups-to-a-remote-cloud-storage) for backups.
-
-The last part of creating a backup is generation of a `.tar` file containing
-all the parts. In some cases (for example, if the backup is picked up by other
-backup software) creating a `.tar` file might be wasted effort or even directly
-harmful, so you can skip this step by adding `tar` to the `SKIP` environment
-variable.
-
-Adding `tar` to the `SKIP` variable leaves the files and directories containing the
-backup in the directory used for the intermediate files. These files are
-overwritten when a new backup is created, so you should make sure they are copied
-elsewhere, because you can only have one backup on the system.
-
-For Omnibus GitLab packages:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-backup create SKIP=tar
-```
-
-For installations from source:
-
-```shell
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create SKIP=tar RAILS_ENV=production
-```
-
-### Back up Git repositories concurrently
-
-> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/37158) in GitLab 13.3.
-> - [Concurrent restore introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/69330) in GitLab 14.3
-
-When using [multiple repository storages](../administration/repository_storage_paths.md),
-repositories can be backed up or restored concurrently to help fully use CPU time. The
-following variables are available to modify the default behavior of the Rake
-task:
-
-- `GITLAB_BACKUP_MAX_CONCURRENCY`: The maximum number of projects to back up at
-  the same time. Defaults to the number of logical CPUs (in GitLab 14.1 and
-  earlier, defaults to `1`).
-- `GITLAB_BACKUP_MAX_STORAGE_CONCURRENCY`: The maximum number of projects to
-  back up at the same time on each storage. This allows the repository backups
-  to be spread across storages. Defaults to `2` (in GitLab 14.1 and earlier,
-  defaults to `1`).
-
-For example, for Omnibus GitLab installations with 4 repository storages:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-backup create GITLAB_BACKUP_MAX_CONCURRENCY=4 GITLAB_BACKUP_MAX_STORAGE_CONCURRENCY=1
-```
-
-For example, for installations from source:
-
-```shell
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create GITLAB_BACKUP_MAX_CONCURRENCY=4 GITLAB_BACKUP_MAX_STORAGE_CONCURRENCY=1
-```
-
-### Incremental repository backups
-
-> - Introduced in GitLab 14.9 [with a flag](../administration/feature_flags.md) named `incremental_repository_backup`. Disabled by default.
-> - [Enabled on self-managed](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/355945) in GitLab 14.10.
-> - `PREVIOUS_BACKUP` option [introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly/-/issues/4184) in GitLab 15.0.
-
-FLAG:
-On self-managed GitLab, by default this feature is available. To hide the feature, ask an administrator to [disable the feature flag](../administration/feature_flags.md) named `incremental_repository_backup`.
-On GitLab.com, this feature is not available.
-
-NOTE:
-Only repositories support incremental backups. Therefore, if you use `INCREMENTAL=yes`, the task
-creates a self-contained backup tar archive. This is because all subtasks except repositories are
-still creating full backups (they overwrite the existing full backup).
-See [issue 19256](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/19256) for a feature request to
-support incremental backups for all subtasks.
-
-Incremental repository backups can be faster than full repository backups because they only pack changes since the last backup into the backup bundle for each repository.
-The incremental backup archives are not linked to each other: each archive is a self-contained backup of the instance. There must be an existing backup
-to create an incremental backup from:
-
-- In GitLab 14.9 and 14.10, use the `BACKUP=<timestamp_of_backup>` option to choose the backup to use. The chosen previous backup is overwritten.
-- In GitLab 15.0 and later, use the `PREVIOUS_BACKUP=<timestamp_of_backup>` option to choose the backup to use. By default, a backup file is created
-  as documented in the [Backup timestamp](backup_restore.md#backup-timestamp) section. You can override the `[TIMESTAMP]` portion of the filename by setting the
-  [`BACKUP` environment variable](#backup-filename).
-
-To create an incremental backup, run:
-
-- In GitLab 15.0 or later:
-
-  ```shell
-  sudo gitlab-backup create INCREMENTAL=yes PREVIOUS_BACKUP=<timestamp_of_backup>
-  ```
-
-- In GitLab 14.9 and 14.10:
-
-  ```shell
-  sudo gitlab-backup create INCREMENTAL=yes BACKUP=<timestamp_of_backup>
-  ```
-
-To create an [untarred](#skipping-tar-creation) incremental backup from a tarred backup, use `SKIP=tar`:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-backup create INCREMENTAL=yes SKIP=tar
-```
-
-### Back up specific repository storages
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/86896) in GitLab 15.0.
-
-When using [multiple repository storages](../administration/repository_storage_paths.md),
-repositories from specific repository storages can be backed up separately
-using the `REPOSITORIES_STORAGES` option. The option accepts a comma-separated list of
-storage names.
-
-For example, for Omnibus GitLab installations:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-backup create REPOSITORIES_STORAGES=storage1,storage2
-```
-
-For example, for installations from source:
-
-```shell
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create REPOSITORIES_STORAGES=storage1,storage2
-```
-
-### Back up specific repositories
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/88094) in GitLab 15.1.
-
-You can back up specific repositories using the `REPOSITORIES_PATHS` option.
-Similarly, you can use `SKIP_REPOSITORIES_PATHS` to skip certain repositories.
-Both options accept a comma-separated list of project or group paths. If you
-specify a group path, all repositories in all projects in the group and
-descendent groups are included or skipped, depending on which option you used.
-
-For example, to back up all repositories for all projects in **Group A** (`group-a`), the repository for **Project C** in **Group B** (`group-b/project-c`),
-and skip the **Project D** in **Group A** (`group-a/project-d`):
-
-- Omnibus GitLab installations:
-
-  ```shell
-  sudo gitlab-backup create REPOSITORIES_PATHS=group-a,group-b/project-c SKIP_REPOSITORIES_PATHS=group-a/project-d
-  ```
-
-- Installations from source:
-
-  ```shell
-  sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create REPOSITORIES_PATHS=group-a,group-b/project-c SKIP_REPOSITORIES_PATHS=group-a/project-d
-  ```
-
-### Upload backups to a remote (cloud) storage
-
-NOTE:
-It is not possible to [skip the tar creation](#skipping-tar-creation) when using object storage for backups.
-
-You can let the backup script upload (using the [Fog library](https://fog.io/))
-the `.tar` file it creates. In the following example, we use Amazon S3 for
-storage, but Fog also lets you use [other storage providers](https://fog.io/storage/).
-GitLab also [imports cloud drivers](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/da46c9655962df7d49caef0e2b9f6bbe88462a02/Gemfile#L113)
-for AWS, Google, and Aliyun. A local driver is
-[also available](#upload-to-locally-mounted-shares).
-
-[Read more about using object storage with GitLab](../administration/object_storage.md).
-
-#### Using Amazon S3
-
-For Omnibus GitLab packages:
-
-1. Add the following to `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
-
-   ```ruby
-   gitlab_rails['backup_upload_connection'] = {
-     'provider' => 'AWS',
-     'region' => 'eu-west-1',
-     'aws_access_key_id' => 'AKIAKIAKI',
-     'aws_secret_access_key' => 'secret123'
-     # If using an IAM Profile, don't configure aws_access_key_id & aws_secret_access_key
-     # 'use_iam_profile' => true
-   }
-   gitlab_rails['backup_upload_remote_directory'] = 'my.s3.bucket'
-   # Consider using multipart uploads when file size reaches 100MB. Enter a number in bytes.
-   # gitlab_rails['backup_multipart_chunk_size'] = 104857600
-   ```
-
-1. [Reconfigure GitLab](../administration/restart_gitlab.md#reconfigure-a-linux-package-installation)
-   for the changes to take effect
-
-#### S3 Encrypted Buckets
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/64765) in GitLab 14.3.
-
-AWS supports these [modes for server side encryption](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/serv-side-encryption.html):
-
-- Amazon S3-Managed Keys (SSE-S3)
-- Customer Master Keys (CMKs) Stored in AWS Key Management Service (SSE-KMS)
-- Customer-Provided Keys (SSE-C)
-
-Use your mode of choice with GitLab. Each mode has similar, but slightly
-different, configuration methods.
-
-##### SSE-S3
-
-To enable SSE-S3, in the backup storage options set the `server_side_encryption`
-field to `AES256`. For example, in Omnibus GitLab:
-
-```ruby
-gitlab_rails['backup_upload_storage_options'] = {
-  'server_side_encryption' => 'AES256'
-}
-```
-
-##### SSE-KMS
-
-To enable SSE-KMS, you need the
-[KMS key via its Amazon Resource Name (ARN) in the `arn:aws:kms:region:acct-id:key/key-id` format](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/UsingKMSEncryption.html).
-Under the `backup_upload_storage_options` configuration setting, set:
-
-- `server_side_encryption` to `aws:kms`.
-- `server_side_encryption_kms_key_id` to the ARN of the key.
-
-For example, in Omnibus GitLab:
-
-```ruby
-gitlab_rails['backup_upload_storage_options'] = {
-  'server_side_encryption' => 'aws:kms',
-  'server_side_encryption_kms_key_id' => 'arn:aws:<YOUR KMS KEY ID>:'
-}
-```
-
-##### SSE-C
-
-SSE-C requires you to set these encryption options:
-
-- `backup_encryption`: AES256.
-- `backup_encryption_key`: Unencoded, 32-byte (256 bits) key. The upload fails if this isn't exactly 32 bytes.
-
-For example, in Omnibus GitLab:
-
-```ruby
-gitlab_rails['backup_encryption'] = 'AES256'
-gitlab_rails['backup_encryption_key'] = '<YOUR 32-BYTE KEY HERE>'
-```
-
-If the key contains binary characters and cannot be encoded in UTF-8,
-instead, specify the key with the `GITLAB_BACKUP_ENCRYPTION_KEY` environment variable.
-For example:
-
-```ruby
-gitlab_rails['env'] = { 'GITLAB_BACKUP_ENCRYPTION_KEY' => "\xDE\xAD\xBE\xEF" * 8 }
-```
-
-#### Digital Ocean Spaces
-
-This example can be used for a bucket in Amsterdam (AMS3):
-
-1. Add the following to `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
-
-   ```ruby
-   gitlab_rails['backup_upload_connection'] = {
-     'provider' => 'AWS',
-     'region' => 'ams3',
-     'aws_access_key_id' => 'AKIAKIAKI',
-     'aws_secret_access_key' => 'secret123',
-     'endpoint'              => 'https://ams3.digitaloceanspaces.com'
-   }
-   gitlab_rails['backup_upload_remote_directory'] = 'my.s3.bucket'
-   ```
-
-1. [Reconfigure GitLab](../administration/restart_gitlab.md#reconfigure-a-linux-package-installation)
-   for the changes to take effect
-
-If you see a `400 Bad Request` error message when using Digital Ocean Spaces,
-the cause may be the use of backup encryption. Because Digital Ocean Spaces
-doesn't support encryption, remove or comment the line that contains
-`gitlab_rails['backup_encryption']`.
-
-#### Other S3 Providers
-
-Not all S3 providers are fully compatible with the Fog library. For example,
-if you see a `411 Length Required` error message after attempting to upload,
-you may need to downgrade the `aws_signature_version` value from the default
-value to `2`, [due to this issue](https://github.com/fog/fog-aws/issues/428).
-
-For installations from source:
-
-1. Edit `home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`:
-
-   ```yaml
-     backup:
-       # snip
-       upload:
-         # Fog storage connection settings, see https://fog.io/storage/ .
-         connection:
-           provider: AWS
-           region: eu-west-1
-           aws_access_key_id: AKIAKIAKI
-           aws_secret_access_key: 'secret123'
-           # If using an IAM Profile, leave aws_access_key_id & aws_secret_access_key empty
-           # ie. aws_access_key_id: ''
-           # use_iam_profile: 'true'
-         # The remote 'directory' to store your backups. For S3, this would be the bucket name.
-         remote_directory: 'my.s3.bucket'
-         # Specifies Amazon S3 storage class to use for backups, this is optional
-         # storage_class: 'STANDARD'
-         #
-         # Turns on AWS Server-Side Encryption with Amazon Customer-Provided Encryption Keys for backups, this is optional
-         #   'encryption' must be set in order for this to have any effect.
-         #   'encryption_key' should be set to the 256-bit encryption key for Amazon S3 to use to encrypt or decrypt.
-         #   To avoid storing the key on disk, the key can also be specified via the `GITLAB_BACKUP_ENCRYPTION_KEY`  your data.
-         # encryption: 'AES256'
-         # encryption_key: '<key>'
-         #
-         #
-         # Turns on AWS Server-Side Encryption with Amazon S3-Managed keys (optional)
-         # https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/serv-side-encryption.html
-         # For SSE-S3, set 'server_side_encryption' to 'AES256'.

-If you're uploading your backups to S3, you should create a new
-IAM user with restricted access rights. To give the upload user access only for
-uploading backups create the following IAM profile, replacing `my.s3.bucket`

-#### Using Google Cloud Storage
-
-To use Google Cloud Storage to save backups, you must first create an
-access key from the Google console:
-
-1. Go to the [Google storage settings page](https://console.cloud.google.com/storage/settings).
-1. Select **Interoperability**, and then create an access key.
-1. Make note of the **Access Key** and **Secret** and replace them in the
-   following configurations.
-1. In the buckets advanced settings ensure the Access Control option
-   **Set object-level and bucket-level permissions** is selected.
-1. Ensure you have already created a bucket.
-
-For Omnibus GitLab packages:
-
-1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
-
-   ```ruby
-   gitlab_rails['backup_upload_connection'] = {
-     'provider' => 'Google',
-     'google_storage_access_key_id' => 'Access Key',
-     'google_storage_secret_access_key' => 'Secret',
-
-     ## If you have CNAME buckets (foo.example.com), you might run into SSL issues
-     ## when uploading backups ("hostname foo.example.com.storage.googleapis.com
-     ## does not match the server certificate"). In that case, uncomnent the following
-     ## setting. See: https://github.com/fog/fog/issues/2834
-     #'path_style' => true
-   }
-   gitlab_rails['backup_upload_remote_directory'] = 'my.google.bucket'
-   ```

-#### Using Azure Blob storage
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/25877) in GitLab 13.4.
-
-For Omnibus GitLab packages:
-
-1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
-
-   ```ruby
-   gitlab_rails['backup_upload_connection'] = {
-    'provider' => 'AzureRM',
-    'azure_storage_account_name' => '<AZURE STORAGE ACCOUNT NAME>',
-    'azure_storage_access_key' => '<AZURE STORAGE ACCESS KEY>',
-    'azure_storage_domain' => 'blob.core.windows.net', # Optional
-   }
-   gitlab_rails['backup_upload_remote_directory'] = '<AZURE BLOB CONTAINER>'
-   ```
-
-1. [Reconfigure GitLab](../administration/restart_gitlab.md#reconfigure-a-linux-package-installation)

-     backup:
-       upload:
-         connection:
-           provider: 'AzureRM'
-           azure_storage_account_name: '<AZURE STORAGE ACCOUNT NAME>'
-           azure_storage_access_key: '<AZURE STORAGE ACCESS KEY>'

-   ```
-

-   for the changes to take effect
-
-For more details, see the [table of Azure parameters](../administration/object_storage.md#azure-blob-storage).
-
-#### Specifying a custom directory for backups
-
-This option works only for remote storage. If you want to group your backups,
-you can pass a `DIRECTORY` environment variable:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-backup create DIRECTORY=daily
-sudo gitlab-backup create DIRECTORY=weekly
-```
-
-Users of GitLab 12.1 and earlier should use the command `gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create` instead.
-
-### Skip uploading backups to remote storage
-
-If you have configured GitLab to [upload backups in a remote storage](#upload-backups-to-a-remote-cloud-storage),
-you can use the `SKIP=remote` option to skip uploading your backups to the remote storage.
-
-For Omnibus GitLab packages:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-backup create SKIP=remote
-```
-
-For installations from source:
-
-```shell
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create SKIP=remote RAILS_ENV=production
-```
-
-### Upload to locally-mounted shares
-
-You can send backups to a locally-mounted share (for example, `NFS`,`CIFS`, or `SMB`) using the Fog
-[`Local`](https://github.com/fog/fog-local#usage) storage provider.
-
-To do this, you must set the following configuration keys:
-
-- `backup_upload_connection.local_root`: mounted directory that backups are copied to.
-- `backup_upload_remote_directory`: subdirectory of the `backup_upload_connection.local_root` directory. It is created if it doesn't exist.
-  If you want to copy the tarballs to the root of your mounted directory, use `.`.
-
-When mounted, the directory set in the `local_root` key must be owned by either:
-
-- The `git` user. So, mounting with the `uid=` of the `git` user for `CIFS` and `SMB`.
-- The user that you are executing the backup tasks as. For Omnibus GitLab, this is the `git` user.
-
-Because file system performance may affect overall GitLab performance,
-[we don't recommend using cloud-based file systems for storage](../administration/nfs.md#avoid-using-cloud-based-file-systems).
-
-#### Avoid conflicting configuration
-
-Don't set the following configuration keys to the same path:
-
-- `gitlab_rails['backup_path']` (`backup.path` for source installations).
-- `gitlab_rails['backup_upload_connection'].local_root` (`backup.upload.connection.local_root` for source installations).
-
-The `backup_path` configuration key sets the local location of the backup file. The `upload` configuration key is
-intended for use when the backup file is uploaded to a separate server, perhaps for archival purposes.
-
-If these configuration keys are set to the same location, the upload feature fails because a backup already exists at
-the upload location. This failure causes the upload feature to delete the backup because it assumes it's a residual file
-remaining after the failed upload attempt.
-
-#### Configure uploads to locally-mounted shares
-
-For Omnibus GitLab packages:
-
-1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
-
-   ```ruby
-   gitlab_rails['backup_upload_connection'] = {
-     :provider => 'Local',
-     :local_root => '/mnt/backups'
-   }
-
-   # The directory inside the mounted folder to copy backups to
-   # Use '.' to store them in the root directory
-   gitlab_rails['backup_upload_remote_directory'] = 'gitlab_backups'
-   ```
-
-1. [Reconfigure GitLab](../administration/restart_gitlab.md#reconfigure-a-linux-package-installation)
-   for the changes to take effect.
-
-For installations from source:
-
-1. Edit `home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`:
-
-   ```yaml
-   backup:
-     upload:
-       # Fog storage connection settings, see https://fog.io/storage/ .
-       connection:
-         provider: Local
-         local_root: '/mnt/backups'
-       # The directory inside the mounted folder to copy backups to
-       # Use '.' to store them in the root directory
-       remote_directory: 'gitlab_backups'
-   ```
-
-1. [Restart GitLab](../administration/restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source)
-   for the changes to take effect.
-
-### Backup archive permissions
-
-The backup archives created by GitLab (`1393513186_2014_02_27_gitlab_backup.tar`)
-have the owner/group `git`/`git` and 0600 permissions by default. This is
-meant to avoid other system users reading GitLab data. If you need the backup
-archives to have different permissions, you can use the `archive_permissions`
-setting.
-
-For Omnibus GitLab packages:
-
-1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
-
-   ```ruby
-   gitlab_rails['backup_archive_permissions'] = 0644 # Makes the backup archives world-readable
-   ```
-
-1. [Reconfigure GitLab](../administration/restart_gitlab.md#reconfigure-a-linux-package-installation)
-   for the changes to take effect.
-
-For installations from source:
-
-1. Edit `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`:
-
-   ```yaml
-   backup:
-     archive_permissions: 0644 # Makes the backup archives world-readable
-   ```
-
-1. [Restart GitLab](../administration/restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source)
-   for the changes to take effect.
-
-### Configuring cron to make daily backups
-
-WARNING:
-The following cron jobs do not [back up your GitLab configuration files](#storing-configuration-files)
-or [SSH host keys](https://superuser.com/questions/532040/copy-ssh-keys-from-one-server-to-another-server/532079#532079).
-
-You can schedule a cron job that backs up your repositories and GitLab metadata.
-
-For Omnibus GitLab packages:
-
-1. Edit the crontab for the `root` user:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo su -
-   crontab -e
-   ```
-
-1. There, add the following line to schedule the backup for everyday at 2 AM:
-
-   ```plaintext
-   0 2 * * * /opt/gitlab/bin/gitlab-backup create CRON=1
-   ```
-
-   Users of GitLab 12.1 and earlier should use the command `gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:create` instead.
-
-For installations from source:
-
-1. Edit the crontab for the `git` user:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo -u git crontab -e
-   ```
-
-1. Add the following lines at the bottom:
-
-   ```plaintext
-   # Create a full backup of the GitLab repositories and SQL database every day at 2am
-   0 2 * * * cd /home/git/gitlab && PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create RAILS_ENV=production CRON=1
-   ```
-
-The `CRON=1` environment setting directs the backup script to hide all progress
-output if there aren't any errors. This is recommended to reduce cron spam.
-When troubleshooting backup problems, however, replace `CRON=1` with `--trace` to log verbosely.
-
-## Limit backup lifetime for local files (prune old backups)
-
-WARNING:
-The process described in this section doesn't work if you used a [custom filename](#backup-filename)
-for your backups.
-
-To prevent regular backups from using all your disk space, you may want to set a limited lifetime
-for backups. The next time the backup task runs, backups older than the `backup_keep_time` are
-pruned.
-
-This configuration option manages only local files. GitLab doesn't prune old
-files stored in a third-party [object storage](#upload-backups-to-a-remote-cloud-storage)
-because the user may not have permission to list and delete files. It's
-recommended that you configure the appropriate retention policy for your object
-storage (for example, [AWS S3](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/user-guide/create-lifecycle.html)).
-
-For Omnibus GitLab packages:
-
-1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
-
-   ```ruby
-   ## Limit backup lifetime to 7 days - 604800 seconds
-   gitlab_rails['backup_keep_time'] = 604800
-   ```
-
-1. [Reconfigure GitLab](../administration/restart_gitlab.md#reconfigure-a-linux-package-installation)
-   for the changes to take effect.
-
-For installations from source:
-
-1. Edit `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml`:
-
-   ```yaml
-   backup:
-     ## Limit backup lifetime to 7 days - 604800 seconds
-     keep_time: 604800
-   ```
-
-1. [Restart GitLab](../administration/restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source)

-# Back up and restore GitLab **(FREE SELF)**
+This document was moved to [another location](../administration/backup_restore/index.md).
 
-GitLab provides Rake tasks for backing up and restoring GitLab instances.
-
-An application data backup creates an archive file that contains the database,
-all repositories and all attachments.
-
-You can only restore a backup to **exactly the same version and type (CE/EE)**
-of GitLab on which it was created. The best way to
-[migrate your projects from one server to another](#migrate-to-a-new-server) is through a backup and restore.
-
-WARNING:
-GitLab doesn't back up items that aren't stored on the file system. If you're
-using [object storage](../administration/object_storage.md), be sure to enable
-backups with your object storage provider, if desired.
-
-## Requirements
-
-To be able to back up and restore, ensure that Rsync is installed on your
-system. If you installed GitLab:
-
-- _Using the Omnibus package_, Rsync is already installed.
-- _From source_, check if `rsync` is installed. If Rsync is not installed, install it. For example:
-
-  ```shell
-  # Debian/Ubuntu
-  sudo apt-get install rsync
-
-  # RHEL/CentOS
-  sudo yum install rsync
-  ```
-
-### `gitaly-backup` for repository backup and restore
-
-> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/333034) in GitLab 14.2.
-> - [Deployed behind a feature flag](../user/feature_flags.md), enabled by default.
-> - [Generally available](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/333034) in GitLab 14.10. [Feature flag `gitaly_backup`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/83254) removed.
-
-The `gitaly-backup` binary is used by the backup Rake task to create and restore repository backups from Gitaly.
-`gitaly-backup` replaces the previous backup method that directly calls RPCs on Gitaly from GitLab.
-
-The backup Rake task must be able to find this executable. In most cases, you don't need to change
-the path to the binary as it should work fine with the default path `/opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/gitaly-backup`.
-If you have a specific reason to change the path, it can be configured in Omnibus GitLab packages:
-
-1. Add the following to `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
-
-   ```ruby
-   gitlab_rails['backup_gitaly_backup_path'] = '/path/to/gitaly-backup'
-   ```
-
-1. [Reconfigure GitLab](../administration/restart_gitlab.md#reconfigure-a-linux-package-installation)
-   for the changes to take effect.
-
-## Backup timestamp
-
-The backup archive is saved in `backup_path`, which is specified in the
-`config/gitlab.yml` file. The filename is `[TIMESTAMP]_gitlab_backup.tar`,
-where `TIMESTAMP` identifies the time at which each backup was created, plus
-the GitLab version. The timestamp is needed if you need to restore GitLab and
-multiple backups are available.
-
-For example, if the backup name is `1493107454_2018_04_25_10.6.4-ce_gitlab_backup.tar`,
-the timestamp is `1493107454_2018_04_25_10.6.4-ce`.
-
-## Back up GitLab
-
-For detailed information on backing up GitLab, see [Backup GitLab](backup_gitlab.md).
-
-## Restore GitLab
-
-For detailed information on restoring GitLab, see [Restore GitLab](restore_gitlab.md).
-
-## Alternative backup strategies
-
-In the following cases, consider using file system data transfer or snapshots as part of your backup strategy:
-
-- Your GitLab instance contains a lot of Git repository data and the GitLab backup script is too slow.
-- Your GitLab instance has a lot of forked projects and the regular backup task duplicates the Git data for all of them.
-- Your GitLab instance has a problem and using the regular backup and import Rake tasks isn't possible.
-
-WARNING:
-Gitaly Cluster [does not support snapshot backups](../administration/gitaly/index.md#snapshot-backup-and-recovery-limitations).
-
-When considering using file system data transfer or snapshots:
-
-- Don't use these methods to migrate from one operating system to another. The operating systems of the source and destination should be as similar as possible. For example,
-  don't use these methods to migrate from Ubuntu to Fedora.
-- Data consistency is very important. We recommend stopping GitLab with `sudo gitlab-ctl stop` before taking doing a file system transfer (with rsync, for example) or taking a
-  snapshot.
-
-Example: Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS)
-
-> A GitLab server using Omnibus GitLab hosted on Amazon AWS.
-> An EBS drive containing an ext4 file system is mounted at `/var/opt/gitlab`.
-> In this case you could make an application backup by taking an EBS snapshot.
-> The backup includes all repositories, uploads and PostgreSQL data.
-
-Example: Logical Volume Manager (LVM) snapshots + rsync
-
-> A GitLab server using Omnibus GitLab, with an LVM logical volume mounted at `/var/opt/gitlab`.
-> Replicating the `/var/opt/gitlab` directory using rsync would not be reliable because too many files would change while rsync is running.
-> Instead of rsync-ing `/var/opt/gitlab`, we create a temporary LVM snapshot, which we mount as a read-only file system at `/mnt/gitlab_backup`.
-> Now we can have a longer running rsync job which creates a consistent replica on the remote server.
-> The replica includes all repositories, uploads and PostgreSQL data.
-
-If you're running GitLab on a virtualized server, you can possibly also create
-VM snapshots of the entire GitLab server. It's not uncommon however for a VM
-snapshot to require you to power down the server, which limits this solution's
-practical use.
-
-### Back up repository data separately
-
-First, ensure you back up existing GitLab data while [skipping repositories](backup_gitlab.md#excluding-specific-directories-from-the-backup):
-
-```shell
-# for Omnibus GitLab package installations
-sudo gitlab-backup create SKIP=repositories
-
-# for installations from source:
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create SKIP=repositories RAILS_ENV=production
-```
-
-For manually backing up the Git repository data on disk, there are multiple possible strategies:
-
-- Use snapshots, such as the previous examples of Amazon EBS drive snapshots, or LVM snapshots + rsync.
-- Use [GitLab Geo](../administration/geo/index.md) and rely on the repository data on a Geo secondary site.
-- [Prevent writes and copy the Git repository data](#prevent-writes-and-copy-the-git-repository-data).
-- [Create an online backup by marking repositories as read-only (experimental)](#online-backup-through-marking-repositories-as-read-only-experimental).
-
-#### Prevent writes and copy the Git repository data
-
-Git repositories must be copied in a consistent way. They should not be copied during concurrent write
-operations, as this can lead to inconsistencies or corruption issues. For more details,
-[issue #270422](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/270422 "Provide documentation on preferred method of migrating Gitaly servers")
-has a longer discussion explaining the potential problems.
-
-To prevent writes to the Git repository data, there are two possible approaches:
-
-- Use [maintenance mode](../administration/maintenance_mode/index.md) to place GitLab in a read-only state.
-- Create explicit downtime by stopping all Gitaly services before backing up the repositories:
-
-  ```shell
-  sudo gitlab-ctl stop gitaly
-  # execute git data copy step
-  sudo gitlab-ctl start gitaly
-  ```
-
-You can copy Git repository data using any method, as long as writes are prevented on the data being copied
-(to prevent inconsistencies and corruption issues). In order of preference and safety, the recommended methods are:
-
-1. Use `rsync` with archive-mode, delete, and checksum options, for example:
-
-   ```shell
-   rsync -aR --delete --checksum source destination # be extra safe with the order as it will delete existing data if inverted
-   ```
-
-1. Use a [`tar` pipe to copy the entire repository's directory to another server or location](../administration/operations/moving_repositories.md#tar-pipe-to-another-server).
-
-1. Use `sftp`, `scp`, `cp`, or any other copying method.
-
-#### Online backup through marking repositories as read-only (experimental)
-
-One way of backing up repositories without requiring instance-wide downtime
-is to programmatically mark projects as read-only while copying the underlying data.
-
-There are a few possible downsides to this:
-
-- Repositories are read-only for a period of time that scales with the size of the repository.
-- Backups take a longer time to complete due to marking each project as read-only, potentially leading to inconsistencies. For example,
-  a possible date discrepancy between the last data available for the first project that gets backed up compared to
-  the last project that gets backed up.
-- Fork networks should be entirely read-only while the projects inside get backed up to prevent potential changes to the pool repository.
-
-There is an **experimental** script that attempts to automate this process in
-[the Geo team Runbooks project](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/geo-team/runbooks/-/tree/main/experimental-online-backup-through-rsync).
-
-## Back up and restore for installations using PgBouncer
-
-Do not back up or restore GitLab through a PgBouncer connection. These
-tasks must [bypass PgBouncer and connect directly to the PostgreSQL primary database node](#bypassing-pgbouncer),
-or they cause a GitLab outage.
-
-When the GitLab backup or restore task is used with PgBouncer, the
-following error message is shown:
-
-```ruby
-ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: PG::UndefinedTable
-```
-
-Each time the GitLab backup runs, GitLab starts generating 500 errors and errors about missing
-tables will [be logged by PostgreSQL](../administration/logs/index.md#postgresql-logs):
-
-```plaintext
-ERROR: relation "tablename" does not exist at character 123
-```
-
-This happens because the task uses `pg_dump`, which
-[sets a null search path and explicitly includes the schema in every SQL query](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/23211)
-to address [CVE-2018-1058](https://www.postgresql.org/about/news/postgresql-103-968-9512-9417-and-9322-released-1834/).
-
-Since connections are reused with PgBouncer in transaction pooling mode,
-PostgreSQL fails to search the default `public` schema. As a result,
-this clearing of the search path causes tables and columns to appear
-missing.
-
-### Bypassing PgBouncer
-
-There are two ways to fix this:
-
-1. [Use environment variables to override the database settings](#environment-variable-overrides) for the backup task.
-1. Reconfigure a node to [connect directly to the PostgreSQL primary database node](../administration/postgresql/pgbouncer.md#procedure-for-bypassing-pgbouncer).
-
-#### Environment variable overrides
-
-By default, GitLab uses the database configuration stored in a
-configuration file (`database.yml`). However, you can override the database settings
-for the backup and restore task by setting environment
-variables that are prefixed with `GITLAB_BACKUP_`:
-
-- `GITLAB_BACKUP_PGHOST`
-- `GITLAB_BACKUP_PGUSER`
-- `GITLAB_BACKUP_PGPORT`
-- `GITLAB_BACKUP_PGPASSWORD`
-- `GITLAB_BACKUP_PGSSLMODE`
-- `GITLAB_BACKUP_PGSSLKEY`
-- `GITLAB_BACKUP_PGSSLCERT`
-- `GITLAB_BACKUP_PGSSLROOTCERT`
-- `GITLAB_BACKUP_PGSSLCRL`
-- `GITLAB_BACKUP_PGSSLCOMPRESSION`
-
-For example, to override the database host and port to use 192.168.1.10
-and port 5432 with the Omnibus package:
-
-```shell
-sudo GITLAB_BACKUP_PGHOST=192.168.1.10 GITLAB_BACKUP_PGPORT=5432 /opt/gitlab/bin/gitlab-backup create
-```
-
-See the [PostgreSQL documentation](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/libpq-envars.html)
-for more details on what these parameters do.

-## Migrate to a new server
-
-<!-- some details borrowed from GitLab.com move from Azure to GCP detailed at https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/migration/-/blob/master/.gitlab/issue_templates/failover.md -->
-
-You can use GitLab backup and restore to migrate your instance to a new server. This section outlines a typical procedure for a GitLab deployment running on a single server.
-If you're running GitLab Geo, an alternative option is [Geo disaster recovery for planned failover](../administration/geo/disaster_recovery/planned_failover.md).
-
-WARNING:
-Avoid uncoordinated data processing by both the new and old servers, where multiple
-servers could connect concurrently and process the same data. For example, when using
-[incoming email](../administration/incoming_email.md), if both GitLab instances are
-processing email at the same time, then both instances miss some data.
-This type of problem can occur with other services as well, such as a
-[non-packaged database](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/database.html#using-a-non-packaged-postgresql-database-management-server),
-a non-packaged Redis instance, or non-packaged Sidekiq.
-
-Prerequisites:
-
-- Some time before your migration, consider notifying your users of upcoming
-  scheduled maintenance with a [broadcast message banner](../user/admin_area/broadcast_messages.md).
-- Ensure your backups are complete and current. Create a complete system-level backup, or
-  take a snapshot of all servers involved in the migration, in case destructive commands
-  (like `rm`) are run incorrectly.
-
-### Prepare the new server
-
-To prepare the new server:
-
-1. Copy the
-   [SSH host keys](https://superuser.com/questions/532040/copy-ssh-keys-from-one-server-to-another-server/532079#532079)
-   from the old server to avoid man-in-the-middle attack warnings.
-   See [Manually replicate the primary site's SSH host keys](../administration/geo/replication/configuration.md#step-2-manually-replicate-the-primary-sites-ssh-host-keys) for example steps.
-1. [Install and configure GitLab](https://about.gitlab.com/install/) except
-   [incoming email](../administration/incoming_email.md):
-   1. Install GitLab.
-   1. Configure by copying `/etc/gitlab` files from the old server to the new server, and update as necessary.
-      Read the
-      [Omnibus configuration backup and restore instructions](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/backups.html) for more detail.
-   1. If applicable, disable [incoming email](../administration/incoming_email.md).
-   1. Block new CI/CD jobs from starting upon initial startup after the backup and restore.
-      Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and set the following:
-
-      ```ruby
-      nginx['custom_gitlab_server_config'] = "location = /api/v4/jobs/request {\n    deny all;\n    return 503;\n  }\n"
-      ```
-
-   1. Reconfigure GitLab:
-
-      ```shell
-      sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
-      ```
-
-1. Stop GitLab to avoid any potential unnecessary and unintentional data processing:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-ctl stop
-   ```
-
-1. Configure the new server to allow receiving the Redis database and GitLab backup files:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo rm -f /var/opt/gitlab/redis/dump.rdb
-   sudo chown <your-linux-username> /var/opt/gitlab/redis /var/opt/gitlab/backups
-   ```
-
-### Prepare and transfer content from the old server
-
-1. Ensure you have an up-to-date system-level backup or snapshot of the old server.
-1. Enable [maintenance mode](../administration/maintenance_mode/index.md),
-   if supported by your GitLab edition.
-1. Block new CI/CD jobs from starting:
-   1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`, and set the following:
-
-      ```ruby
-      nginx['custom_gitlab_server_config'] = "location = /api/v4/jobs/request {\n    deny all;\n    return 503;\n  }\n"
-      ```
-
-   1. Reconfigure GitLab:
-
-      ```shell
-      sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
-      ```
-
-1. Disable periodic background jobs:
-   1. On the left sidebar, expand the top-most chevron (**{chevron-down}**).
-   1. Select **Admin Area**.
-   1. On the left sidebar, select **Monitoring > Background Jobs**.
-   1. Under the Sidekiq dashboard, select **Cron** tab and then
-      **Disable All**.
-1. Wait for the currently running CI/CD jobs to finish, or accept that jobs that have not completed may be lost.
-   To view jobs currently running, on the left sidebar, select **Overviews > Jobs**,
-   and then select **Running**.
-1. Wait for Sidekiq jobs to finish:
-   1. On the left sidebar, select **Monitoring > Background Jobs**.
-   1. Under the Sidekiq dashboard, select **Queues** and then **Live Poll**.
-      Wait for **Busy** and **Enqueued** to drop to 0.
-      These queues contain work that has been submitted by your users;
-      shutting down before these jobs complete may cause the work to be lost.
-      Make note of the numbers shown in the Sidekiq dashboard for post-migration verification.
-1. Flush the Redis database to disk, and stop GitLab other than the services needed for migration:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo /opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/redis-cli -s /var/opt/gitlab/redis/redis.socket save && sudo gitlab-ctl stop && sudo gitlab-ctl start postgresql && sudo gitlab-ctl start gitaly
-   ```
-
-1. Create a GitLab backup:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-backup create
-   ```
-
-1. Disable the following GitLab services and prevent unintentional restarts by adding the following to the bottom of `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
-
-   ```ruby
-   alertmanager['enable'] = false
-   gitlab_exporter['enable'] = false
-   gitlab_pages['enable'] = false
-   gitlab_workhorse['enable'] = false
-   grafana['enable'] = false
-   logrotate['enable'] = false
-   gitlab_rails['incoming_email_enabled'] = false
-   nginx['enable'] = false
-   node_exporter['enable'] = false
-   postgres_exporter['enable'] = false
-   postgresql['enable'] = false
-   prometheus['enable'] = false
-   puma['enable'] = false
-   redis['enable'] = false
-   redis_exporter['enable'] = false
-   registry['enable'] = false
-   sidekiq['enable'] = false
-   ```
-
-1. Reconfigure GitLab:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
-   ```
-
-1. Verify everything is stopped, and confirm no services are running:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-ctl status
-   ```
-
-1. Transfer the Redis database and GitLab backups to the new server:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo scp /var/opt/gitlab/redis/dump.rdb <your-linux-username>@new-server:/var/opt/gitlab/redis
-   sudo scp /var/opt/gitlab/backups/your-backup.tar <your-linux-username>@new-server:/var/opt/gitlab/backups
-   ```
-
-### Restore data on the new server
-
-1. Restore appropriate file system permissions:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo chown gitlab-redis /var/opt/gitlab/redis
-   sudo chown gitlab-redis:gitlab-redis /var/opt/gitlab/redis/dump.rdb
-   sudo chown git:root /var/opt/gitlab/backups
-   sudo chown git:git /var/opt/gitlab/backups/your-backup.tar
-   ```
-
-1. [Restore the GitLab backup](#restore-gitlab).
-1. Verify that the Redis database restored correctly:
-   1. On the left sidebar, expand the top-most chevron (**{chevron-down}**).
-   1. Select **Admin Area**.
-   1. On the left sidebar, select **Monitoring > Background Jobs**.
-   1. Under the Sidekiq dashboard, verify that the numbers
-      match with what was shown on the old server.
-   1. While still under the Sidekiq dashboard, select **Cron** and then **Enable All**
-      to re-enable periodic background jobs.
-1. Test that read-only operations on the GitLab instance work as expected. For example, browse through project repository files, merge requests, and issues.
-1. Disable [Maintenance Mode](../administration/maintenance_mode/index.md), if previously enabled.
-1. Test that the GitLab instance is working as expected.
-1. If applicable, re-enable [incoming email](../administration/incoming_email.md) and test it is working as expected.
-1. Update your DNS or load balancer to point at the new server.
-1. Unblock new CI/CD jobs from starting by removing the custom NGINX configuration
-   you added previously:
-
-   ```ruby
-   # The following line must be removed
-   nginx['custom_gitlab_server_config'] = "location = /api/v4/jobs/request {\n    deny all;\n    return 503;\n  }\n"
-   ```
-
-1. Reconfigure GitLab:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
-   ```
-
-1. Remove the scheduled maintenance [broadcast message banner](../user/admin_area/broadcast_messages.md).
-
-## Additional notes
-
-This documentation is for GitLab Community and Enterprise Edition. We back up
-GitLab.com and ensure your data is secure. You can't, however, use these
-methods to export or back up your data yourself from GitLab.com.
-
-Issues are stored in the database, and can't be stored in Git itself.
-
-To migrate your repositories from one server to another with an up-to-date
-version of GitLab, use the [import Rake task](import.md) to do a mass import of
-the repository. If you do an import Rake task rather than a backup restore,
-you get all of your repositories, but no other data.
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-The following are possible problems you might encounter, along with potential
-solutions.
-
-### Restoring database backup using Omnibus packages outputs warnings
-
-If you're using backup restore procedures, you may encounter the following
-warning messages:
-
-```plaintext
-ERROR: must be owner of extension pg_trgm
-ERROR: must be owner of extension btree_gist
-ERROR: must be owner of extension plpgsql
-WARNING:  no privileges could be revoked for "public" (two occurrences)
-WARNING:  no privileges were granted for "public" (two occurrences)
-```
-
-Be advised that the backup is successfully restored in spite of these warning
-messages.
-
-The Rake task runs this as the `gitlab` user, which doesn't have superuser
-access to the database. When restore is initiated, it also runs as the `gitlab`
-user, but it also tries to alter the objects it doesn't have access to.
-Those objects have no influence on the database backup or restore, but display
-a warning message.
-
-For more information, see:
-
-- PostgreSQL issue tracker:
-  - [Not being a superuser](https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/201110220712.30886.adrian.klaver@gmail.com).
-  - [Having different owners](https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/2039.1177339749@sss.pgh.pa.us).
-
-- Stack Overflow: [Resulting errors](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4368789/error-must-be-owner-of-language-plpgsql).
-
-### When the secrets file is lost
-
-If you didn't [back up the secrets file](backup_gitlab.md#storing-configuration-files), you
-must complete several steps to get GitLab working properly again.
-
-The secrets file is responsible for storing the encryption key for the columns
-that contain required, sensitive information. If the key is lost, GitLab can't
-decrypt those columns, preventing access to the following items:
-
-- [CI/CD variables](../ci/variables/index.md)
-- [Kubernetes / GCP integration](../user/infrastructure/clusters/index.md)
-- [Custom Pages domains](../user/project/pages/custom_domains_ssl_tls_certification/index.md)
-- [Project error tracking](../operations/error_tracking.md)
-- [Runner authentication](../ci/runners/index.md)
-- [Project mirroring](../user/project/repository/mirror/index.md)
-- [Integrations](../user/project/integrations/index.md)
-- [Web hooks](../user/project/integrations/webhooks.md)
-
-In cases like CI/CD variables and runner authentication, you can experience
-unexpected behaviors, such as:
-
-- Stuck jobs.
-- 500 errors.
-
-In this case, you must reset all the tokens for CI/CD variables and
-runner authentication, which is described in more detail in the following
-sections. After resetting the tokens, you should be able to visit your project
-and the jobs begin running again.
-
-Use the information in the following sections at your own risk.
-
-#### Verify that all values can be decrypted
-
-You can determine if your database contains values that can't be decrypted by using a
-[Rake task](../administration/raketasks/check.md#verify-database-values-can-be-decrypted-using-the-current-secrets).
-
-#### Take a backup
-
-You must directly modify GitLab data to work around your lost secrets file.
-
-WARNING:
-Be sure to create a full database backup before attempting any changes.
-
-#### Disable user two-factor authentication (2FA)
-
-Users with 2FA enabled can't sign in to GitLab. In that case, you must
-[disable 2FA for everyone](../security/two_factor_authentication.md#for-all-users),
-after which users must reactivate 2FA.
-
-#### Reset CI/CD variables
-
-1. Enter the database console:
-
-   For Omnibus GitLab 14.1 and earlier:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-rails dbconsole
-   ```
-
-   For Omnibus GitLab 14.2 and later:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-rails dbconsole --database main
-   ```
-
-   For installations from source, GitLab 14.1 and earlier:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails dbconsole -e production
-   ```
-
-   For installations from source, GitLab 14.2 and later:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails dbconsole -e production --database main
-   ```
-
-1. Examine the `ci_group_variables` and `ci_variables` tables:
-
-   ```sql
-   SELECT * FROM public."ci_group_variables";
-   SELECT * FROM public."ci_variables";
-   ```
-
-   These are the variables that you need to delete.
-
-1. Delete all variables:
-
-   ```sql
-   DELETE FROM ci_group_variables;
-   DELETE FROM ci_variables;
-   ```
-
-1. If you know the specific group or project from which you wish to delete variables, you can include a `WHERE` statement to specify that in your `DELETE`:
-
-   ```sql
-   DELETE FROM ci_group_variables WHERE group_id = <GROUPID>;
-   DELETE FROM ci_variables WHERE project_id = <PROJECTID>;
-   ```
-
-You may need to reconfigure or restart GitLab for the changes to take effect.
-
-#### Reset runner registration tokens
-
-1. Enter the database console:
-
-   For Omnibus GitLab 14.1 and earlier:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-rails dbconsole
-   ```
-
-   For Omnibus GitLab 14.2 and later:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-rails dbconsole --database main
-   ```
-
-   For installations from source, GitLab 14.1 and earlier:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails dbconsole -e production
-   ```
-
-   For installations from source, GitLab 14.2 and later:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails dbconsole -e production --database main
-   ```
-
-1. Clear all tokens for projects, groups, and the entire instance:
-
-   WARNING:
-   The final `UPDATE` operation stops the runners from being able to pick
-   up new jobs. You must register new runners.
-
-   ```sql
-   -- Clear project tokens
-   UPDATE projects SET runners_token = null, runners_token_encrypted = null;
-   -- Clear group tokens
-   UPDATE namespaces SET runners_token = null, runners_token_encrypted = null;
-   -- Clear instance tokens
-   UPDATE application_settings SET runners_registration_token_encrypted = null;
-   -- Clear key used for JWT authentication
-   -- This may break the $CI_JWT_TOKEN job variable:
-   -- https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/325965
-   UPDATE application_settings SET encrypted_ci_jwt_signing_key = null;
-   -- Clear runner tokens
-   UPDATE ci_runners SET token = null, token_encrypted = null;
-   ```
-
-#### Reset pending pipeline jobs
-
-1. Enter the database console:
-
-   For Omnibus GitLab 14.1 and earlier:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-rails dbconsole
-   ```
-
-   For Omnibus GitLab 14.2 and later:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-rails dbconsole --database main
-   ```
-
-   For installations from source, GitLab 14.1 and earlier:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails dbconsole -e production
-   ```
-
-   For installations from source, GitLab 14.2 and later:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails dbconsole -e production --database main
-   ```
-
-1. Clear all the tokens for pending jobs:
-
-   For GitLab 15.3 and earlier:
-
-   ```sql
-   -- Clear build tokens
-   UPDATE ci_builds SET token = null, token_encrypted = null;
-   ```
-
-   For GitLab 15.4 and later:
-
-   ```sql
-   -- Clear build tokens
-   UPDATE ci_builds SET token_encrypted = null;
-   ```
-
-A similar strategy can be employed for the remaining features. By removing the
-data that can't be decrypted, GitLab can be returned to operation, and the
-lost data can be manually replaced.
-
-#### Fix integrations and webhooks
-
-If you've lost your secrets, the [integrations settings pages](../user/project/integrations/index.md)
-and [webhooks settings pages](../user/project/integrations/webhooks.md) are probably displaying `500` error messages.
-
-The fix is to truncate the affected tables (those containing encrypted columns).
-This deletes all your configured integrations, webhooks, and related metadata.
-You should verify that the secrets are the root cause before deleting any data.
-
-1. Enter the database console:
-
-   For Omnibus GitLab 14.1 and earlier:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-rails dbconsole
-   ```
-
-   For Omnibus GitLab 14.2 and later:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-rails dbconsole --database main
-   ```
-
-   For installations from source, GitLab 14.1 and earlier:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails dbconsole -e production
-   ```
-
-   For installations from source, GitLab 14.2 and later:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails dbconsole -e production --database main
-   ```
-
-1. Truncate the following tables:
-
-   ```sql
-   -- truncate web_hooks table
-   TRUNCATE integrations, chat_names, issue_tracker_data, jira_tracker_data, slack_integrations, web_hooks, zentao_tracker_data, web_hook_logs;
-   ```
-
-### Container Registry push failures after restoring from a backup
-
-If you use the [Container Registry](../user/packages/container_registry/index.md),
-pushes to the registry may fail after restoring your backup on an Omnibus GitLab
-instance after restoring the registry data.
-
-These failures mention permission issues in the registry logs, similar to:
-
-```plaintext
-level=error
-msg="response completed with error"
-err.code=unknown
-err.detail="filesystem: mkdir /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/registry/docker/registry/v2/repositories/...: permission denied"
-err.message="unknown error"
-```
-
-This issue is caused by the restore running as the unprivileged user `git`,
-which is unable to assign the correct ownership to the registry files during
-the restore process ([issue #62759](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/62759 "Incorrect permissions on registry filesystem after restore")).
-
-To get your registry working again:
-
-```shell
-sudo chown -R registry:registry /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/registry/docker
-```
-
-If you changed the default file system location for the registry, run `chown`
-against your custom location, instead of `/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/registry/docker`.
-
-### Backup fails to complete with Gzip error
-
-When running the backup, you may receive a Gzip error message:
-
-```shell
-sudo /opt/gitlab/bin/gitlab-backup create
-...
-Dumping ...
-...
-gzip: stdout: Input/output error
-
-Backup failed
-```
-
-If this happens, examine the following:
-
-- Confirm there is sufficient disk space for the Gzip operation. It's not uncommon for backups that
-  use the [default strategy](backup_gitlab.md#backup-strategy-option) to require half the instance size
-  in free disk space during backup creation.
-- If NFS is being used, check if the mount option `timeout` is set. The
-  default is `600`, and changing this to smaller values results in this error.
-
-### Backup fails with `File name too long` error
-
-During backup, you can get the `File name too long` error ([issue #354984](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/354984)). For example:
-
-```plaintext
-Problem: <class 'OSError: [Errno 36] File name too long:
-```
-
-This problem stops the backup script from completing. To fix this problem, you must truncate the filenames causing the problem. A maximum of 246 characters, including the file extension, is permitted.
-
-WARNING:
-The steps in this section can potentially lead to **data loss**. All steps must be followed strictly in the order given.
-
-Truncating filenames to resolve the error involves:
-
-- Cleaning up remote uploaded files that aren't tracked in the database.
-- Truncating the filenames in the database.
-- Rerunning the backup task.
-
-#### Clean up remote uploaded files
-
-A [known issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/45425) caused object store uploads to remain after a parent resource was deleted. This issue was [resolved](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/merge_requests/18698).
-
-To fix these files, you must clean up all remote uploaded files that are in the storage but not tracked in the `uploads` database table.
-
-1. List all the object store upload files that can be moved to a lost and found directory if they don't exist in the GitLab database:
-
-   ```shell
-   bundle exec rake gitlab:cleanup:remote_upload_files RAILS_ENV=production
-   ```
-
-1. If you are sure you want to delete these files and remove all non-referenced uploaded files, run:
-
-   WARNING:
-   The following action is **irreversible**.
-
-   ```shell
-   bundle exec rake gitlab:cleanup:remote_upload_files RAILS_ENV=production DRY_RUN=false
-   ```
-
-#### Truncate the filenames referenced by the database
-
-You must truncate the files referenced by the database that are causing the problem. The filenames referenced by the database are stored:
-
-- In the `uploads` table.
-- In the references found. Any reference found from other database tables and columns.
-- On the file system.
-
-Truncate the filenames in the `uploads` table:
-
-1. Enter the database console:
-
-   For Omnibus GitLab 14.2 and later:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-rails dbconsole --database main
-   ```
-
-   For Omnibus GitLab 14.1 and earlier:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo gitlab-rails dbconsole
-   ```
-
-   For installations from source, GitLab 14.2 and later:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails dbconsole -e production --database main
-   ```
-
-   For installations from source, GitLab 14.1 and earlier:
-
-   ```shell
-   sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails dbconsole -e production
-   ```
-
-1. Search the `uploads` table for filenames longer than 246 characters:
-
-   The following query selects the `uploads` records with filenames longer than 246 characters in batches of 0 to 10000. This improves the performance on large GitLab instances with tables having thousand of records.
-
-      ```sql
-      CREATE TEMP TABLE uploads_with_long_filenames AS
-      SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY id) row_id, id, path
-      FROM uploads AS u
-      WHERE LENGTH((regexp_match(u.path, '[^\\/:*?"<>|\r\n]+$'))[1]) > 246;
-
-      CREATE INDEX ON uploads_with_long_filenames(row_id);
-
-      SELECT
-         u.id,
-         u.path,
-         -- Current filename
-         (regexp_match(u.path, '[^\\/:*?"<>|\r\n]+$'))[1] AS current_filename,
-         -- New filename

-            COALESCE(SUBSTRING((regexp_match(u.path, '[^\\/:*?"<>|\r\n]+$'))[1] FROM '\.(?:.(?!\.))+$'))
-         ) AS new_filename,
-         -- New path
-         CONCAT(
-            COALESCE((regexp_match(u.path, '(.*\/).*'))[1], ''),
-            CONCAT(
-               LEFT(SPLIT_PART((regexp_match(u.path, '[^\\/:*?"<>|\r\n]+$'))[1], '.', 1), 242),
-               COALESCE(SUBSTRING((regexp_match(u.path, '[^\\/:*?"<>|\r\n]+$'))[1] FROM '\.(?:.(?!\.))+$'))
-            )
-         ) AS new_path
-      FROM uploads_with_long_filenames AS u
-      WHERE u.row_id > 0 AND u.row_id <= 10000;
-      ```
-
-      Output example:
-
-      ```postgresql

-      ```
-
-      Where:
-
-      - `current_filename`: a filename that is currently more than 246 characters long.
-      - `new_filename`: a filename that has been truncated to 246 characters maximum.
-      - `new_path`: new path considering the `new_filename` (truncated).
-
-   Once you validate the batch results, you must change the batch size (`row_id`) using the following sequence of numbers (10000 to 20000). Repeat this process until you reach the last record in the `uploads` table.
-
-1. Rename the files found in the `uploads` table from long filenames to new truncated filenames. The following query rolls back the update so you can check the results safely within a transaction wrapper:
-
-   ```sql
-   CREATE TEMP TABLE uploads_with_long_filenames AS
-   SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY id) row_id, path, id
-   FROM uploads AS u
-   WHERE LENGTH((regexp_match(u.path, '[^\\/:*?"<>|\r\n]+$'))[1]) > 246;
-
-   CREATE INDEX ON uploads_with_long_filenames(row_id);
-
-   BEGIN;
-   WITH updated_uploads AS (
-      UPDATE uploads
-      SET
-         path =
-         CONCAT(
-            COALESCE((regexp_match(updatable_uploads.path, '(.*\/).*'))[1], ''),
-            CONCAT(
-               LEFT(SPLIT_PART((regexp_match(updatable_uploads.path, '[^\\/:*?"<>|\r\n]+$'))[1], '.', 1), 242),
-               COALESCE(SUBSTRING((regexp_match(updatable_uploads.path, '[^\\/:*?"<>|\r\n]+$'))[1] FROM '\.(?:.(?!\.))+$'))
-            )
-         )
-      FROM
-         uploads_with_long_filenames AS updatable_uploads
-      WHERE
-         uploads.id = updatable_uploads.id
-      AND updatable_uploads.row_id > 0 AND updatable_uploads.row_id  <= 10000
-      RETURNING uploads.*
-   )
-   SELECT id, path FROM updated_uploads;
-   ROLLBACK;
-   ```
-
-   Once you validate the batch update results, you must change the batch size (`row_id`) using the following sequence of numbers (10000 to 20000). Repeat this process until you reach the last record in the `uploads` table.
-
-1. Validate that the new filenames from the previous query are the expected ones. If you are sure you want to truncate the records found in the previous step to 246 characters, run the following:
-
-   WARNING:
-   The following action is **irreversible**.
-
-   ```sql
-   CREATE TEMP TABLE uploads_with_long_filenames AS
-   SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY id) row_id, path, id
-   FROM uploads AS u
-   WHERE LENGTH((regexp_match(u.path, '[^\\/:*?"<>|\r\n]+$'))[1]) > 246;
-
-   CREATE INDEX ON uploads_with_long_filenames(row_id);
-
-   UPDATE uploads
-   SET
-   path =
-      CONCAT(
-         COALESCE((regexp_match(updatable_uploads.path, '(.*\/).*'))[1], ''),
-         CONCAT(
-            LEFT(SPLIT_PART((regexp_match(updatable_uploads.path, '[^\\/:*?"<>|\r\n]+$'))[1], '.', 1), 242),
-            COALESCE(SUBSTRING((regexp_match(updatable_uploads.path, '[^\\/:*?"<>|\r\n]+$'))[1] FROM '\.(?:.(?!\.))+$'))
-         )
-      )
-   FROM
-   uploads_with_long_filenames AS updatable_uploads
-   WHERE
-   uploads.id = updatable_uploads.id
-   AND updatable_uploads.row_id > 0 AND updatable_uploads.row_id  <= 10000;
-   ```
-
-   Once you finish the batch update, you must change the batch size (`updatable_uploads.row_id`) using the following sequence of numbers (10000 to 20000). Repeat this process until you reach the last record in the `uploads` table.
-
-Truncate the filenames in the references found:
-
-1. Check if those records are referenced somewhere. One way to do this is to dump the database and search for the parent directory name and filename:
-
-   1. To dump your database, you can use the following command as an example:
-
-      ```shell
-      pg_dump -h /var/opt/gitlab/postgresql/ -d gitlabhq_production > gitlab-dump.tmp
-      ```
-
-   1. Then you can search for the references using the `grep` command. Combining the parent directory and the filename can be a good idea. For example:
-
-      ```shell
-      grep public/alongfilenamehere.txt gitlab-dump.tmp
-      ```
-
-1. Replace those long filenames using the new filenames obtained from querying the `uploads` table.
-
-Truncate the filenames on the file system. You must manually rename the files in your file system to the new filenames obtained from querying the `uploads` table.
-
-#### Re-run the backup task
-
-After following all the previous steps, re-run the backup task.
-
-### Restoring database backup fails when `pg_stat_statements` was previously enabled
-
-The GitLab backup of the PostgreSQL database includes all SQL statements required to enable extensions that were
-previously enabled in the database.
-
-The `pg_stat_statements` extension can only be enabled or disabled by a PostgreSQL user with `superuser` role.
-As the restore process uses a database user with limited permissions, it can't execute the following SQL statements:
-
-```sql
-DROP EXTENSION IF EXISTS pg_stat_statements;
-CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS pg_stat_statements WITH SCHEMA public;
-```
-
-When trying to restore the backup in a PostgreSQL instance that doesn't have the `pg_stats_statements` extension,
-the following error message is displayed:
-
-```plaintext
-ERROR: permission denied to create extension "pg_stat_statements"
-HINT: Must be superuser to create this extension.
-ERROR: extension "pg_stat_statements" does not exist
-```
-
-When trying to restore in an instance that has the `pg_stats_statements` extension enabled, the cleaning up step
-fails with an error message similar to the following:
-
-```plaintext
-rake aborted!
-ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: PG::InsufficientPrivilege: ERROR: must be owner of view pg_stat_statements

-(See full trace by running task with --trace)
-```
-
-#### Prevent the dump file to include `pg_stat_statements`
-
-To prevent the inclusion of the extension in the PostgreSQL dump file that is part of the backup bundle,
-enable the extension in any schema except the `public` schema:
-
-```sql
-CREATE SCHEMA adm;
-CREATE EXTENSION pg_stat_statements SCHEMA adm;
-```
-
-If the extension was previously enabled in the `public` schema, move it to a new one:
-
-```sql
-CREATE SCHEMA adm;
-ALTER EXTENSION pg_stat_statements SET SCHEMA adm;
-```
-
-To query the `pg_stat_statements` data after changing the schema, prefix the view name with the new schema:
-
-```sql
-SELECT * FROM adm.pg_stat_statements limit 0;
-```
-
-To make it compatible with third-party monitoring solutions that expect it to be enabled in the `public` schema,
-you need to include it in the `search_path`:
-
-```sql
-set search_path to public,adm;
-```
-
-#### Fix an existing dump file to remove references to `pg_stat_statements`
-
-To fix an existing backup file, do the following changes:
-
-1. Extract from the backup the following file: `db/database.sql.gz`.
-1. Decompress the file or use an editor that is capable of handling it compressed.
-1. Remove the following lines, or similar ones:
-
-   ```sql
-   CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS pg_stat_statements WITH SCHEMA public;
-   ```
-
-   ```sql
-   COMMENT ON EXTENSION pg_stat_statements IS 'track planning and execution statistics of all SQL statements executed';
-   ```
-
-1. Save the changes and recompress the file.
-1. Update the backup file with the modified `db/database.sql.gz`.

-# Restore GitLab **(FREE SELF)**
+This document was moved to [another location](../administration/backup_restore/restore_gitlab.md).
 
-GitLab provides a command line interface to restore your entire installation,
-and is flexible enough to fit your needs.
-
-The [restore prerequisites section](#restore-prerequisites) includes crucial
-information. Be sure to read and test the complete restore process at least
-once before attempting to perform it in a production environment.
-
-You can restore a backup only to _the exact same version and type (CE/EE)_ of
-GitLab that you created it on (for example CE 15.1.4).
-
-If your backup is a different version than the current installation, you must
-[downgrade](../update/package/downgrade.md) or [upgrade](../update/package/index.md#upgrade-to-a-specific-version-using-the-official-repositories) your GitLab installation
-before restoring the backup.
-
-Each backup archive contains a full self-contained backup, including those created through the [incremental repository backup procedure](backup_gitlab.md#incremental-repository-backups). To restore an incremental repository backup, use the same instructions as restoring any other regular backup archive.
-
-## Restore prerequisites
-
-You need to have a working GitLab installation before you can perform a
-restore. This is because the system user performing the restore actions (`git`)
-is usually not allowed to create or delete the SQL database needed to import
-data into (`gitlabhq_production`). All existing data is either erased
-(SQL) or moved to a separate directory (such as repositories and uploads).
-Restoring SQL data skips views owned by PostgreSQL extensions.
-
-To restore a backup, **you must also restore the GitLab secrets**.
-These include the database encryption key, [CI/CD variables](../ci/variables/index.md), and
-variables used for [two-factor authentication](../user/profile/account/two_factor_authentication.md).
-Without the keys, [multiple issues occur](backup_restore.md#when-the-secrets-file-is-lost),
-including loss of access by users with [two-factor authentication enabled](../user/profile/account/two_factor_authentication.md),
-and GitLab Runners cannot log in.
-
-Restore:
-
-- `/etc/gitlab/gitlab-secrets.json` (Linux package)
-- `/home/git/gitlab/.secret` (self-compiled installations)
-- Rails secret (cloud-native GitLab)
-  - [This can be converted to the Linux package format](https://docs.gitlab.com/charts/installation/migration/helm_to_package.html), if required.
-
-You may also want to restore your previous `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` (for Omnibus packages)
-or `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml` (for installations from source) and
-any TLS keys, certificates (`/etc/gitlab/ssl`, `/etc/gitlab/trusted-certs`), or
-[SSH host keys](https://superuser.com/questions/532040/copy-ssh-keys-from-one-server-to-another-server/532079#532079).
-
-Depending on your case, you might want to run the restore command with one or
-more of the following options:
-
-- `BACKUP=timestamp_of_backup`: Required if more than one backup exists.
-  Read what the [backup timestamp is about](backup_restore.md#backup-timestamp).
-- `force=yes`: Doesn't ask if the `authorized_keys` file should get regenerated,
-  and assumes 'yes' for warning about database tables being removed,
-  enabling the `Write to authorized_keys file` setting, and updating LDAP
-  providers.
-
-If you're restoring into directories that are mount points, you must ensure these directories are
-empty before attempting a restore. Otherwise, GitLab attempts to move these directories before
-restoring the new data, which causes an error.
-
-Read more about [configuring NFS mounts](../administration/nfs.md)
-
-Restoring a backup from an instance using local storage restores to local storage even if the target instance uses object storage.
-Migrations to object storage must be done before or after restoration.
-
-## Restore for Omnibus GitLab installations
-
-This procedure assumes that:
-
-- You have installed the **exact same version and type (CE/EE)** of GitLab
-  Omnibus with which the backup was created.
-- You have run `sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure` at least once.
-- GitLab is running. If not, start it using `sudo gitlab-ctl start`.
-
-First ensure your backup tar file is in the backup directory described in the
-`gitlab.rb` configuration `gitlab_rails['backup_path']`. The default is
-`/var/opt/gitlab/backups`. The backup file needs to be owned by the `git` user.
-
-```shell
-sudo cp 11493107454_2018_04_25_10.6.4-ce_gitlab_backup.tar /var/opt/gitlab/backups/
-sudo chown git:git /var/opt/gitlab/backups/11493107454_2018_04_25_10.6.4-ce_gitlab_backup.tar
-```
-
-Stop the processes that are connected to the database. Leave the rest of GitLab
-running:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-ctl stop puma
-sudo gitlab-ctl stop sidekiq
-# Verify
-sudo gitlab-ctl status
-```
-
-Next, ensure you have completed the [restore prerequisites](#restore-prerequisites) steps and have run `gitlab-ctl reconfigure`
-after copying over the GitLab secrets file from the original installation.
-
-Next, restore the backup, specifying the timestamp of the backup you wish to
-restore:
-
-```shell
-# This command will overwrite the contents of your GitLab database!
-# NOTE: "_gitlab_backup.tar" is omitted from the name
-sudo gitlab-backup restore BACKUP=11493107454_2018_04_25_10.6.4-ce
-```
-
-Users of GitLab 12.1 and earlier should use the command `gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:restore` instead.
-Some [known non-blocking error messages may appear](backup_restore.md#restoring-database-backup-using-omnibus-packages-outputs-warnings).
-
-WARNING:
-`gitlab-rake gitlab:backup:restore` doesn't set the correct file system
-permissions on your Registry directory. This is a [known issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/62759).
-In GitLab 12.2 or later, you can use `gitlab-backup restore` to avoid this
-issue.
-
-If there's a GitLab version mismatch between your backup tar file and the
-installed version of GitLab, the restore command aborts with an error
-message. Install the [correct GitLab version](https://packages.gitlab.com/gitlab/),
-and then try again.
-
-WARNING:
-The restore command requires [additional parameters](backup_restore.md#back-up-and-restore-for-installations-using-pgbouncer) when
-your installation is using PgBouncer, for either performance reasons or when using it with a Patroni cluster.
-
-Next, restart and [check](../administration/raketasks/maintenance.md#check-gitlab-configuration) GitLab:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-ctl restart
-sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:check SANITIZE=true
-```
-
-In GitLab 13.1 and later, check [database values can be decrypted](../administration/raketasks/check.md#verify-database-values-can-be-decrypted-using-the-current-secrets)
-especially if `/etc/gitlab/gitlab-secrets.json` was restored, or if a different server is
-the target for the restore.
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:doctor:secrets
-```
-
-For added assurance, you can perform [an integrity check on the uploaded files](../administration/raketasks/check.md#uploaded-files-integrity):
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:artifacts:check
-sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:lfs:check
-sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:uploads:check
-```
-
-## Restore for Docker image and GitLab Helm chart installations
-
-For GitLab installations using the Docker image or the GitLab Helm chart on a
-Kubernetes cluster, the restore task expects the restore directories to be
-empty. However, with Docker and Kubernetes volume mounts, some system level
-directories may be created at the volume roots, such as the `lost+found`
-directory found in Linux operating systems. These directories are usually owned
-by `root`, which can cause access permission errors since the restore Rake task
-runs as the `git` user. To restore a GitLab installation, users have to confirm
-the restore target directories are empty.
-
-For both these installation types, the backup tarball has to be available in
-the backup location (default location is `/var/opt/gitlab/backups`).
-
-### Restore for Helm chart installations
-
-The GitLab Helm chart uses the process documented in
-[restoring a GitLab Helm chart installation](https://docs.gitlab.com/charts/backup-restore/restore.html#restoring-a-gitlab-installation)
-
-### Restore for Docker image installations
-
-If you're using [Docker Swarm](../install/docker.md#install-gitlab-using-docker-swarm-mode),
-the container might restart during the restore process because Puma is shut down,
-and so the container health check fails. To work around this problem,
-temporarily disable the health check mechanism.
-
-1. Edit `docker-compose.yml`:
-
-   ```yaml
-   healthcheck:
-     disable: true
-   ```
-
-1. Deploy the stack:
-
-   ```shell
-   docker stack deploy --compose-file docker-compose.yml mystack
-   ```
-
-For more information, see [issue 6846](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/-/issues/6846 "GitLab restore can fail owing to `gitlab-healthcheck`").
-
-The restore task can be run from the host:
-
-```shell
-# Stop the processes that are connected to the database
-docker exec -it <name of container> gitlab-ctl stop puma
-docker exec -it <name of container> gitlab-ctl stop sidekiq
-
-# Verify that the processes are all down before continuing
-docker exec -it <name of container> gitlab-ctl status
-
-# Run the restore. NOTE: "_gitlab_backup.tar" is omitted from the name
-docker exec -it <name of container> gitlab-backup restore BACKUP=11493107454_2018_04_25_10.6.4-ce
-
-# Restart the GitLab container
-docker restart <name of container>
-
-# Check GitLab
-docker exec -it <name of container> gitlab-rake gitlab:check SANITIZE=true
-```
-
-## Restore for installation from source
-
-First, ensure your backup tar file is in the backup directory described in the
-`gitlab.yml` configuration:
-
-```yaml
-## Backup settings
-backup:
-  path: "tmp/backups"   # Relative paths are relative to Rails.root (default: tmp/backups/)
-```
-
-The default is `/home/git/gitlab/tmp/backups`, and it needs to be owned by the `git` user. Now, you can begin the backup procedure:
-
-```shell
-# Stop processes that are connected to the database
-sudo service gitlab stop
-
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:restore RAILS_ENV=production
-```
-
-Example output:
-
-```plaintext

-
-## Restoring only one or a few projects or groups from a backup
-
-Although the Rake task used to restore a GitLab instance doesn't support
-restoring a single project or group, you can use a workaround by restoring
-your backup to a separate, temporary GitLab instance, and then export your
-project or group from there:
-
-1. [Install a new GitLab](../install/index.md) instance at the same version as
-   the backed-up instance from which you want to restore.
-1. [Restore the backup](#restore-gitlab) into this new instance, then
-   export your [project](../user/project/settings/import_export.md)
-   or [group](../user/group/import/index.md#migrate-groups-by-uploading-an-export-file-deprecated). For more information about what is and isn't exported, see the export feature's documentation.
-1. After the export is complete, go to the old instance and then import it.
-1. After importing the projects or groups that you wanted is complete, you may
-   delete the new, temporary GitLab instance.
-
-A feature request to provide direct restore of individual projects or groups
-is being discussed in [issue #17517](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/17517).
-
-## Restore options
-
-The command line tool GitLab provides to restore from backup can accept more
-options.
-
-### Disabling prompts during restore
-
-During a restore from backup, the restore script may ask for confirmation before
-proceeding. If you wish to disable these prompts, you can set the `GITLAB_ASSUME_YES`
-environment variable to `1`.
-
-For Omnibus GitLab packages:
-
-```shell
-sudo GITLAB_ASSUME_YES=1 gitlab-backup restore
-```
-
-For installations from source:
-
-```shell
-sudo -u git -H GITLAB_ASSUME_YES=1 bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:restore RAILS_ENV=production
-```
-
-### Excluding tasks on restore
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/19347) in GitLab 14.10.
-
-You can exclude specific tasks on restore by adding the environment variable `SKIP`, whose values are a comma-separated list of the following options:
-
-- `db` (database)
-- `uploads` (attachments)
-- `builds` (CI job output logs)
-- `artifacts` (CI job artifacts)
-- `lfs` (LFS objects)
-- `terraform_state` (Terraform states)
-- `registry` (Container Registry images)
-- `pages` (Pages content)
-- `repositories` (Git repositories data)
-- `packages` (Packages)
-
-For Omnibus GitLab packages:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-backup restore BACKUP=timestamp_of_backup SKIP=db,uploads
-```
-
-For installations from source:
-
-```shell
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:restore BACKUP=timestamp_of_backup SKIP=db,uploads RAILS_ENV=production
-```
-
-### Restore specific repository storages
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/86896) in GitLab 15.0.
-
-When using [multiple repository storages](../administration/repository_storage_paths.md),
-repositories from specific repository storages can be restored separately
-using the `REPOSITORIES_STORAGES` option. The option accepts a comma-separated list of
-storage names.
-
-For example, for Omnibus GitLab installations:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-backup restore BACKUP=timestamp_of_backup REPOSITORIES_STORAGES=storage1,storage2
-```
-
-For example, for installations from source:
-
-```shell
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:restore BACKUP=timestamp_of_backup REPOSITORIES_STORAGES=storage1,storage2
-```
-
-### Restore specific repositories
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/88094) in GitLab 15.1.
-
-You can restore specific repositories using the `REPOSITORIES_PATHS` and the `SKIP_REPOSITORIES_PATHS` options.
-Both options accept a comma-separated list of project and group paths. If you
-specify a group path, all repositories in all projects in the group and
-descendent groups are included or skipped, depending on which option you used. The project and group repositories must exist within the specified backup.
-
-For example, to restore all repositories for all projects in **Group A** (`group-a`), the repository for **Project C** in **Group B** (`group-b/project-c`),
-and skip the **Project D** in **Group A** (`group-a/project-d`):
-
-- Omnibus GitLab installations:
-
-  ```shell
-  sudo gitlab-backup restore BACKUP=timestamp_of_backup REPOSITORIES_PATHS=group-a,group-b/project-c SKIP_REPOSITORIES_PATHS=group-a/project-d
-  ```
-
-- Installations from source:
-
-  ```shell
-  sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:restore BACKUP=timestamp_of_backup REPOSITORIES_PATHS=group-a,group-b/project-c SKIP_REPOSITORIES_PATHS=group-a/project-d
-  ```
-
-### Restore untarred backups
-
-If an [untarred backup](backup_gitlab.md#skipping-tar-creation) (made with `SKIP=tar`) is found,
-and no backup is chosen with `BACKUP=<timestamp>`, the untarred backup is used.
-
-For example, for Omnibus GitLab installations:
-
-```shell
-sudo gitlab-backup restore
-```
-
-For example, for installations from source:
-
-```shell
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:restore
-```
