+OpenStack Database Backup and Restore with Percona XtraBackup
+=============================================================
+
+With the procedure described in this topic
+you will be able to back up and restore
+your OpenStack MySQL database.
+
+You will need to put the OpenStack
+environment into maintenance mode.
+
+In the maintenance mode the following services
+will be unavailable:
+
+ * MySQL and HAProxy on the selected controller node
+ * HAProxy on other controller nodes in the cluster for a short time
+
+Backing up with Percona XtraBackup
+----------------------------------
+
+#. Enable the HAProxy stats socket for every controller in a cluster:
+
+  #. Open the */etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg* file for editing.
+
+  #. Find the *stats socket /var/lib/haproxy/stats* line in the global section
+     and add *level admin* at the end of the line.
+
+#. Restart HAProxy in one of the following ways:
+
+   * Execute /usr/lib/ocf/resource.d/mirantis/ns_haproxy reload on every controller
+
+   Or
+
+   * Reload all HAProxy instances on all controllers in a cluster with a temporary
+     services stop by running the *crm resource restart p_haproxy* command.
+
+#. On the Fuel Master node, run the *fuel nodes | grep controller* command.
+   If the node that you are going to back up is a host for a Neutron agent,
+   you can move the agent to a different controller with the following command:
+
+   ::
+
+     ssh node-1
+     pcs resource move agent_name node_name
+
+   where "node-1" is the name of the node from which you would like to move.
+
+#. For every controller in the cluster, put the MySQL service into
+   maintenance mode by running the following command from the Fuel Master node:
+
+   ::
+
+     ssh -t node-1 'echo "disable server mysqld/node-1" | socat stdio /var/lib/haproxy/stats'
+
+#. Put the node into maintenance mode for Pacemaker:
+
+   ::
+
+     ssh node-1
+     crm node maintenance
+
+   where "node-1" is the name of the node from which you would like to move.
+
+#. Stop data replication on the selected MySQL instance:
+
+   ::
+
+     mysql -e "SET GLOBAL wsrep_on=off;"
+
+#. Run the backup:
+
+   ::
+
+     xtrabackup --backup --stream=tar ./ | gzip - > backup.tar.gz
+
+#. Make a streaming backup as described in
+   `Percona Guide <http://www.percona.com/doc/percona-xtrabackup/2.1/howtos/recipes_ibkx_stream.html>`_.
+
+#. Move the archive file to a safe place.
+
+#. Re-enable the data replication:
+
+   ::
+
+     mysql -e "SET GLOBAL wsrep_on=on;"
+
+#. Take the MySQL service out of maintenance mode with
+   the following command for every controller in the cluster:
+
+   ::
+
+     ssh -t node-1 'echo "enable server mysqld/node-1" | socat stdio /var/lib/haproxy/stats'
+
+#. Put the node into the ready mode:
+
+   ::
+
+     ssh -t node-1 crm node ready
+
+   where "node-1" is the node that you have backed up.
+
+Restoring with Percona XtraBackup
+---------------------------------
+
+#. Remove grastate.dat (e.g. move to a different place) оn all nodes:
+
+   ::
+
+     ssh node-1 mv /var/lib/mysql/grastate.dat /var/lib/mysql/grastate.old
+     ssh node-2 mv /var/lib/mysql/grastate.dat /var/lib/mysql/grastate.old
+     ssh node-3 mv /var/lib/mysql/grastate.dat /var/lib/mysql/grastate.old
+
+#. Extract the database backup file on the first controller:
+
+   ::
+
+     ssh node-1 'cd /var/lib/mysql/ ;tar -xvzf clear-base.tgz'
+
+   where "node-1" is the node that you have backed up.
+
+#. Change the owner:
+
+   ::
+
+     chown -R mysql:mysql /var/lib/mysql
+
+#. Export the variables for *mysql-wss* on all nodes:
+
+   ::
+
+     export OCF_RESOURCE_INSTANCE=p_mysql
+     export OCF_ROOT=/usr/lib/ocf
+     export OCF_RESKEY_socket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
+
+#. Export the variable for *mysql-wss on* the first node:
+
+   ::
+
+     export OCF_RESKEY_additional_parameters="--wsrep-new-cluster"
+
+#. Start *mysqld* on the first controller:
+
+   ::
+
+     /usr/lib/ocf/resource.d/mirantis/mysql-wss start
+
+#. Start *mysqld* on all other controllers:
+
+   ::
+
+     /usr/lib/ocf/resource.d/mirantis/mysql-wss start
+
+#. Copy the extracted database backup.
+
+#. Check the crm status for all nodes.
