This repo contains the documentation for BOSH Backup and Restore (BBR), a framework for backing up and restoring BOSH deployments and BOSH Directors. This is the generic BBR documentation: it describes how to use BBR with any BOSH deployment or BOSH Director.

This repo is published to the following locations:

• https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/bbr/ (OSS CF documentation)
• https://docs.pivotal.io/bbr/ (PCF documentation)

The BBR release notes are published to http://docs.cloudfoundry.org/bbr/bbr-rn.html (OSS CF documentation)

The PCF Tile Developer Guide links out to the BOSH Backup and Restore Developer's Guide topic from Other Integrations > BOSH Backup and Restore in the subnav.

The BBR documentation published in the OSS CF documentation at https://docs.cloudfoundry.org/bbr/ is included in the main subnav in docs-book-cloudfoundry: https://github.com/cloudfoundry/docs-book-cloudfoundry/blob/master/master_middleman/source/subnavs/_cf-subnav.erb. The BBR section appears under Information for Operators > Deploying Cloud Foundry.

The BBR documentation published in the PCF documentation at https://docs.pivotal.io/bbr/ has its own subnav in docs-book-pcfservices: https://github.com/pivotal-cf/docs-book-pcfservices/blob/master/master_middleman/source/subnavs/bbr-subnav.erb.

BBR template variables that contextualize topics for OSS CF and PCF live in both the docs-book-pcfservices template variables file and the docs-book-cloudfoundry template variables file.

These variables appear in the following topics:

• BOSH Backup and Restore
• Backing Up with BOSH Backup and Restore
• Installing BOSH Backup and Restore

There is a separate set of documentation that describes how to use BBR to back up and restore a PCF deployment. See the Backup and Restore with BBR section of the Backing Up and Restoring Pivotal Cloud Foundry topic in the PCF documentation.

This table lists the GitHub locations and URLs for all BBR documentation.

Note: The backup and restore PCF with BBR documentation exists in multiple versions of the PCF documentation, beginning with the PCF v1.11 docs.
