Description

Documentation

What

When adding new backup files/directories, we will need to add related keys for this. This and other things (like SSH key changes when hosts upgrade/change) should be documented


Keys are not being made for the two new entries :(

root@hg:~# ls /etc/backup/.ssh
id_rsa_python-hg

from

{{ backup }}-ssh-key:
  file.managed:
    - name: /etc/backup/.ssh/id_rsa_{{ backup }}
    - contents_pillar: backup-secret:directories:{{ backup }}:ssh_key
    - user: {{ config['user'] }}
    - mode: "0600"
    - show_diff: False 

probably due to missing pillar data in the secrets file for backup
