# Cluster Failover Runbook

This runbook describes the procedure for failing over to a disaster recovery (DR) region when the primary cluster is completely unavailable.

## Prerequisites

- DR cluster provisioned and ready
- Backups available in DR region
- DNS access for failover
- Access to both primary and DR clusters
- Disaster declared and approved

## Pre-Failover Checklist

- [ ] Disaster declared and documented
- [ ] Stakeholders notified
- [ ] DR cluster resources verified
- [ ] Latest backups available in DR
- [ ] DNS access confirmed
- [ ] Team assembled and ready

## Failover Procedure

### Step 1: Verify DR Cluster Status

```bash
# Switch kubectl context to DR cluster
kubectl config use-context veza-dr-cluster

# Verify cluster is healthy
kubectl cluster-info
kubectl get nodes

# Verify namespaces exist
kubectl get namespaces | grep veza
```

### Step 2: Restore Secrets

```bash
# Restore secrets from Vault or backup
# Option A: From Vault
vault kv get -format=json secret/veza/production | \
  kubectl create secret generic veza-secrets \
    --from-literal=database-url="$(vault kv get -field=database-url secret/veza/production)" \
    --from-literal=jwt-secret="$(vault kv get -field=jwt-secret secret/veza/production)" \
    --from-literal=redis-url="$(vault kv get -field=redis-url secret/veza/production)" \
    -n veza-production \
    --dry-run=client -o yaml | kubectl apply -f -

# Option B: From backup file
kubectl create secret generic veza-secrets \
  --from-env-file=secrets-backup.env \
  -n veza-production
```

### Step 3: Restore Database

```bash
# 1. Deploy PostgreSQL in DR cluster
kubectl apply -f k8s/database/postgres-deployment.yaml -n veza-production

# 2. Wait for PostgreSQL to be ready
kubectl wait --for=condition=ready pod \
  -l app=postgres \
  -n veza-production \
  --timeout=300s

# 3. Restore from latest backup
# Get backup from S3 or backup storage
aws s3 cp s3://veza-backups/postgres/latest.dump /tmp/backup.dump

# Restore database
kubectl run postgres-restore --rm -it --image=postgres:15-alpine \
  --restart=Never \
  --env="PGPASSWORD=..." \
  --env="POSTGRES_HOST=postgres-service" \
  --env="POSTGRES_USER=veza_user" \
  --env="POSTGRES_DB=veza_db" \
  --overrides='
{
  "spec": {
    "containers": [{
      "name": "postgres-restore",
      "image": "postgres:15-alpine",
      "command": ["/bin/sh", "-c", "pg_restore -h $POSTGRES_HOST -U $POSTGRES_USER -d $POSTGRES_DB -F c /backups/latest.dump --clean --if-exists"],
      "volumeMounts": [{
        "name": "backup",
        "mountPath": "/backups"
      }]
    }],
    "volumes": [{
      "name": "backup",
      "hostPath": {
        "path": "/tmp"
      }
    }]
  }
}' \
  -n veza-production

# 4. Verify database restore
kubectl exec -it postgres-pod -n veza-production -- \
  psql -U veza_user -d veza_db -c "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM users;"
```

### Step 4: Deploy Applications

```bash
# Deploy backend API (includes chat since v0.502 merge)
kubectl apply -f k8s/backend-api/deployment.yaml -n veza-production
kubectl apply -f k8s/backend-api/service.yaml -n veza-production

# Deploy frontend
kubectl apply -f k8s/frontend/deployment.yaml -n veza-production
kubectl apply -f k8s/frontend/service.yaml -n veza-production

# Deploy stream server
kubectl apply -f k8s/stream-server/deployment.yaml -n veza-production
kubectl apply -f k8s/stream-server/service.yaml -n veza-production

# Wait for deployments
kubectl rollout status deployment/veza-backend-api -n veza-production
kubectl rollout status deployment/veza-frontend -n veza-production
kubectl rollout status deployment/veza-stream-server -n veza-production
```

### Step 5: Configure Ingress

```bash
# Deploy ingress
kubectl apply -f k8s/ingress.yaml -n veza-production

# Verify ingress
kubectl get ingress -n veza-production
```

### Step 6: Update DNS

```bash
# Get DR cluster ingress IP
DR_INGRESS_IP=$(kubectl get ingress veza-ingress -n veza-production -o jsonpath='{.status.loadBalancer.ingress[0].ip}')

# Update DNS records
# Option A: Using AWS Route53
aws route53 change-resource-record-sets \
  --hosted-zone-id Z1234567890 \
  --change-batch '{
    "Changes": [{
      "Action": "UPSERT",
      "ResourceRecordSet": {
        "Name": "api.veza.com",
        "Type": "A",
        "TTL": 300,
        "ResourceRecords": [{"Value": "'$DR_INGRESS_IP'"}]
      }
    }]
  }'

# Option B: Using Cloudflare
curl -X PATCH "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/ZONE_ID/dns_records/RECORD_ID" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $CLOUDFLARE_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{"content":"'$DR_INGRESS_IP'"}'

# Wait for DNS propagation
dig api.veza.com +short
```

### Step 7: Verify Services

```bash
# Check all pods are running
kubectl get pods -n veza-production

# Test health endpoints
curl https://api.veza.com/health
curl https://app.veza.com/health

# Run smoke tests
# (Use your application's test suite)

# Check application logs
kubectl logs -f deployment/veza-backend-api -n veza-production
```

### Step 8: Restore Redis (if needed)

```bash
# Deploy Redis
kubectl apply -f k8s/redis/deployment.yaml -n veza-production

# Restore Redis backup if available
kubectl cp redis-backup.rdb redis-pod:/data/dump.rdb -n veza-production
kubectl delete pod redis-pod -n veza-production  # Restart to load backup
```

## Verification Checklist

- [ ] DR cluster is healthy
- [ ] Secrets restored
- [ ] Database restored and verified
- [ ] All applications deployed
- [ ] Ingress configured
- [ ] DNS updated
- [ ] Health checks passing
- [ ] Smoke tests passing
- [ ] Users can access platform
- [ ] Monitoring configured

## Post-Failover Tasks

### Immediate (First Hour)

1. **Monitor Platform**
    - Watch application logs
    - Monitor error rates
    - Check performance metrics

2. **Notify Stakeholders**
    - Send status update
    - Update status page
    - Communicate expected timeline

### Short Term (First Day)

1. **Investigate Primary Cluster**
    - Assess damage
    - Identify root cause
    - Estimate recovery time

2. **Optimize DR Cluster**
    - Scale resources if needed
    - Optimize configurations
    - Monitor performance

### Long Term (Recovery Phase)

1. **Restore Primary Cluster**
    - Fix issues in primary
    - Restore from backups
    - Verify functionality

2. **Plan Failback**
    - Schedule maintenance window
    - Prepare failback procedure
    - Test failback process

## Failback Procedure

Once primary cluster is restored:

```bash
# 1. Sync data from DR to primary
# (Use database replication or restore from DR backup)

# 2. Verify primary cluster
kubectl config use-context veza-primary-cluster
kubectl get pods -n veza-production

# 3. Update DNS back to primary
# (Reverse of Step 6 in failover)

# 4. Monitor both clusters during transition

# 5. Once verified, scale down DR cluster
kubectl scale deployment veza-backend-api --replicas=0 -n veza-production --context=veza-dr-cluster
```

## Troubleshooting

### Database Restore Fails

```bash
# Check backup file integrity
pg_restore --list /backups/latest.dump

# Try restoring specific tables
pg_restore -h postgres-service -U veza_user -d veza_db \
  -t users -t tracks /backups/latest.dump

# Check PostgreSQL logs
kubectl logs postgres-pod -n veza-production
```

### Applications Not Starting

```bash
# Check pod status
kubectl describe pod <pod-name> -n veza-production

# Check logs
kubectl logs <pod-name> -n veza-production

# Verify secrets
kubectl get secret veza-secrets -n veza-production -o yaml

# Check resource constraints
kubectl top nodes
```

### DNS Not Propagating

```bash
# Check DNS records
dig api.veza.com +short
nslookup api.veza.com

# Verify ingress IP
kubectl get ingress veza-ingress -n veza-production

# Check DNS provider status
# (AWS Route53, Cloudflare, etc.)
```
