etcd Restore

shubhankar.soni

I have been practicing for the CKA exam. I have a doubt for questions/scenarios specific to etcd restore. I have seen in many places that etcdctl had an option to restore the etcd db as well. But, from etcdctl version 3.6.0, the etcdctl no longer has restore option, to restore the snapshot etcdutl should be used. I would like to know that my **CKA exam shell will contain both etcdctl and etcdutl**, because I see in many practice labs etcdutl is not available however etcdctl with version 3.6.0 is available. Do we need to install etcdutl while giving the exam ( I think so it will eat alot of time, since time is the constraint in the exam).

Hi @fcioanca this is not an exam related question, it is a general query due to changes in version of etcdctl.
