Sample VBR .ini Files

The vbr utility uses a configuration file for the information required to back up and restore a full- or object-level backup or copy a cluster. You cannot run vbr without a configuration file because no default file exists.

Vertica includes sample configuration files that you can copy, edit, and deploy for your various vbr tasks. Vertica automatically installs these files at /opt/vertica/share/vbr/example_configs. These sample configuration files are included in this documentation in the following sections.
