Playbook: Backup & Restore

To maintain historical continuity, key state must be backed up.

1. Incident Audit Logs (Postgres)

The AuditStore (in a real system) resides in Postgres.

• Backup: pg_dump -U cortex cortexops > backup.sql
• Restore: psql -U cortex cortexops < backup.sql

2. Historical Incident Memory (Qdrant)

Embeddings stored in Qdrant power the RCA engine.

• Backup: Utilize Qdrant snapshots.
• Location: /qdrant/storage/snapshots/

3. Workflow History (Temporal)

Temporal workflow histories are stored in Postgres. Backing up the Postgres instance covers both audits and active workflow state.
