      Manage the backup service settings

      SYNOPSIS

      _couchbase-cli backup-service [--cluster <url>] [--username <user>]
    [--password <password>] settings [--get] [--set] [--history-rotation-period <days>]
    [--history-rotation-size <mebibytes>]

      DESCRIPTION

      Manage the backup service settings

      OPTIONS

      --get

      Retrieve current backup service settings.

      --set

      Set backup service settings.

      --history-rotation-size <mebibytes>

      The history size in mebibytes at which it should be rotated. Valid values are between 5 and 200.

      --history-rotation-period <days>

      The period in days at which the history should be rotated. Valid values are between 1 and 365.

      HOST FORMATS

      When specifying a host for the couchbase-cli command the following formats are expected:

      • couchbase://<addr>

      • <addr>:<port>

      • http://<addr>:<port>

      It is recommended to use the couchbase://<addr> format for standard installations. The other two formats allow an option to take a port number which is needed for non-default installations where the admin port has been set up on a port other that 8091.

      EXAMPLES

      To retrieve the backup service settings:

      $ couchbase-cli backup-service -c 127.0.0.1:8091 -u Administrator -p password \
  settings --get
-- Backup service configuration --
History rotation size: 70 MiB
History rotation period: 28 days

      To set the backup service configuration use the --set flag and any of the configuration flags for example:

      $ couchbase-cli backup-service -c 127.0.0.1:8091 -u Administrator -p password \
  settings --set --history-rotation-size 70 --history-rotation-period 365
SUCCESS: Backup service settings set

      ENVIRONMENT AND CONFIGURATION VARIABLES

      CB_REST_USERNAME

      Specifies the username to use when executing the command. This environment variable allows you to specify a default argument for the -u/--username argument on the command line.

      CB_REST_PASSWORD

      Specifies the password of the user executing the command. This environment variable allows you to specify a default argument for the -p/--password argument on the command line. It also allows the user to ensure that their password are not cached in their command line history.
