Hello Abdul, Depending on what you want your backend to be stored on, you'll want to use a different file.
So if you want your Reaper state to be stored within a Cassandra cluster, which I would recommend, use this file as your base file: https://github.com/thelastpickle/cassandra-reaper/blob/master/src/packaging/resource/cassandra-reaper-cassandra.yaml Make a copy of the yaml and include your system-specific settings. Then symlink it to the following location: /etc/cassandra-reaper/cassandra-reaper.yaml For completeness, this file is an example of how to use a Postgres server to store the Reaper state: https://github.com/thelastpickle/cassandra-reaper/blob/master/src/packaging/resource/cassandra-reaper.yaml Hope that helped!
