Restoring a backup with tridentctl-protect using a path error

[cburchett]

I have an appvault:

tridentctl-protect -n trident-protect get appvault
+---------------+----------+-----------+------+-------+
|     NAME      | PROVIDER |   STATE   | AGE  | ERROR |
+---------------+----------+-----------+------+-------+
| c1-svm0-s3-av | OntapS3  | Available | 1d1h |       |
+---------------+----------+-----------+------+-------+

I have a backup:

tridentctl-protect get backup
+-----------------------+----------------+-----------+--------+-------+
|         NAME          |    APP REF     |   STATE   |  AGE   | ERROR |
+-----------------------+----------------+-----------+--------+-------+
| mywordpressapp-bkup-1 | mywordpressapp | Completed | 52m13s |       |
+-----------------------+----------------+-----------+--------+-------+

I detect the path of backup:

tridentctl-protect get appvaultcontent c1-svm0-s3-av --show-paths --app mywordpressapp -n trident-protect
+---------+----------------+--------+-----------------------+---------------------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| CLUSTER |      APP       |  TYPE  |         NAME          |         TIMESTAMP         |                                                          PATH                                                          |
+---------+----------------+--------+-----------------------+---------------------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|         | mywordpressapp | backup | mywordpressapp-bkup-1 | 2024-11-22 19:51:57 (UTC) | mywordpressapp_e2e6d6d0-00ac-4f36-b63e-b4288556eefb/backups/mywordpressapp-bkup-1_3102ced9-1dbb-4705-9d08-d1715f585f96 |
+---------+----------------+--------+-----------------------+---------------------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

I used the backup path to restore to a new namespace and I get the following error:

tridentctl-protect create backuprestore mywordpressapp-bkupr2 --namespace-mapping mywordpressapp:mywordpressapp2 --appvault c1-svm0-s3-av --path mywordpressapp_e2e6d6d0-00ac-4f36-b63e-b4288556eefb/backups/mywordpressapp-bkup-1_3102ced9-1dbb-4705-9d08-d1715f585f9 
2024/11/22 20:30:41 admission webhook "vrestore-creation.protect.trident.netapp.io" denied the request: The specified key does not exist.

I must be doing something wrong but can't seem to get this to work... Thoughts?

You need to create the backuprestore CR in the target namespace, so add -n mywordpressapp2 to your tridentctl-protect command and it should work. The admission webhook blocks creation of CRs other than appVault in the trident-protect NS.
