Hey there @PeterJanRoes ! Any updates about this? I would like to dedicate some time in this release to replication enhancements, so I could take care of this.

@grooverdan thanks for the clarification, it does makes sense. We could extend our CRD so the user could choose the `type` of backup, defaulting to the logical one: ```yaml apiVersion:...

Reopening, see: - https://github.com/mariadb-operator/mariadb-operator/pull/97

I've managed to restore a physical backup in a `MariaDB` instance with Galera enabled. Steps followed: - Provision a `MariaDB` instance with Galera enabled ```yaml apiVersion: mariadb.mmontes.io/v1alpha1 kind: MariaDB metadata:...

> Can mariadb-backup backup be used in the final version @grooverdan not sure If I'm understanding. If I utilize `mariabackup` within the `mariadb:11.0.3` container, wouldn't that mean I'm already working...

Great, I've updated the example to use `maria-backup`: - https://github.com/mariadb-operator/mariadb-operator/blob/main/examples/manifests/mariadb_v1alpha1_mariadb_init_mariabackup.yaml Maybe this docs need to be updated as well?: - https://mariadb.com/kb/en/full-backup-and-restore-with-mariabackup/

See relevant PR for `mariadb-docker` which automatically restores physical `*.tar.gz` backups provided under `/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d`: - https://github.com/MariaDB/mariadb-docker/pull/533#issuecomment-1751202435

Hey there! As described in the [Galera docs](https://github.com/mariadb-operator/mariadb-operator/blob/main/docs/GALERA.md#api-reference), the best way to interact with documentation is `kubectl explain`: > What is the cluster and pod timeouts in the recovery section,...

> Regarding the timeouts, if spec.podSyncTimeout is longer than the liveness threshold and the sync process takes longer than the liveness threshold, won't k8s terminate the pod before pod synchronization...

> I reverted to a previous deployment. The operator is no longer crashing, however the cluster is failing to come up: You have created a new `MariaDB`, are you also...
