i used part of this tutorial in order to back up the chef server and ship a tarball off to another server in another datacenter.

Ohai!

I'm starting to move some of our operations into the cloud and want to start using chef to manage the instances. But first I need a proper backup / recovery plan for my chef-server. All the directions I can find are for Chef 10 and the CouchDB, not for v11.

Anyone aware of a good tutorial on how / what to back up? And how to restore and get running again.

I understand the cookbooks and databags should be in version control, but the node data / keys and such is a different matter.
