Stumped on snapshot create/delete #5

Closed mb-codell closed 4 years ago

mb-codell commented 6 years ago

Hello, I followed the ops-automator deployment guide, configuring the stacks for a daily snapshot creation and a 7-day deletion. No snapshots are being created however, and I'm trying to understand why. For troubleshooting I have changed the cron to hourly in the attached screenshot.

I deployed ops-automator per the guide, created the stack, then tagged my EC2 instances with "OpsAutomatorTaskList = BackupDaily" (my stack name)

Do you see any obvious issues with my parameters for the BackupDaily stack? I'm not seeing anything meaningful (that I can understand, anyway) in the logs. Any help appreciated.

The cron only supports 5 fields, min,hour, month, monthday, weekday. So please check if the scheduler log stream does not give you any errors when it tries to load the config items. Regions '*" is supported but not recommended as it has to query any EC2 region, which could result is timeouts Hope this helps
