missing backup args for vtctld

[L3o-pold]

Following the discussion on Slack https://vitess.slack.com/archives/C0PQY0PTK/p1635093608043400.

vtctld is clearly missing the backup parameters like --s3_backup_aws_endpoint=s3.endpoint.com.

Full set of flags needed for s3:

      --backup_storage_implementation=s3
      --s3_backup_aws_endpoint=s3.endpoint.com
      --s3_backup_aws_region=eu-central-003
      --s3_backup_storage_bucket=fake-bucket-name
      --s3_backup_storage_root=vt

There are similar flags for gcs

You'll also need to update following s3 credential files settings manually if you've configured in the backup > locations > authSecret section.

• extraVolumes
• extraVolumeMounts
• extraEnv (mainly for AWS_SHARED_CREDENTIALS_FILE)

have to be manually patched via CRD yaml for letting vtctld backup related commands working.

Any progress or thoughts on this?

Hey @L3o-pold are you still experiencing this issue?

@frouioui the s3_backup_aws_endpoint flag seems available on vtctld now
