For a supported experience with OpenShift API for Data Protection (OADP), you should have a stable and resilient network across {OCP-short} nodes, S3 storage, and in supported cloud environments that meet {OCP-short} network requirement recommendations.

To ensure successful backup and restore operations for deployments with remote S3 buckets located off-cluster with suboptimal data paths, it is recommended that your network settings meet the following minimum requirements in such less optimal conditions:

  • Bandwidth (network upload speed to object storage): Greater than 2 Mbps for small backups and 10-100 Mbps depending on the data volume for larger backups.

  • Packet loss: 1%

  • Packet corruption: 1%

  • Latency: 100ms

Ensure that your OpenShift Container Platform network performs optimally and meets OpenShift Container Platform network requirements.

Although Red Hat provides supports for standard backup and restore failures, it does not provide support for failures caused by network settings that do not meet the recommended thresholds.
