ETCD - backup and restore management

I had the exact same issue.
The way to resolve is:
update the volumeMounts to reflect the new data path. In this case the new data directory of “/var/lib/etcd-from-backup”
So, the new mountVolume section looks like this:

volumeMounts:
- mountPath: /var/lib/etcd-from-backup
  name: etcd-data
- mountPath: /etc/kubernetes/pki/etcd
  name: etcd-certs
volumes:
- hostPath:
  path: /etc/kubernetes/pki/etcd
  type: DirectoryOrCreate
name: etcd-certs
- hostPath:
  path: /var/lib/etcd-from-backup
  type: DirectoryOrCreate
name: etcd-data

Hope that helps!
