How to download resources (bpmn files) from zeebe cluster?

Camunda 8 Topics
1

We are using camunda 8.2.12 in production. Given that dynamic resizing is not yet supported for zeebe, we were thinking of a workaround to this.

For us, we only need the bpmn files - we can live without process instance data. So theoretically we could resize the zeebe cluster by re-uploading the bpmn files from the previous zeebe cluster.

I understand that zeebe does not have a download resource api but is it possible to get these files from the physical backup?

Thanks.

Hi @jgeek1
As far as I know, there is no easy way to extract the BPMN file from Zeebe.

Ok, the files in the data folder of zeebe (that we take as a backup) - any idea what format are they in? Can there be other tools that can read those files?
