How does one export multiple object types? I tried this:

./backup.sh -n msa -r ingress deployment

which failed, and this

./backup.sh -n msa -r ingress -r deployment

Which only exports deployments

not support, but you can export all resource without any parameter. just:

./k8sdump.sh

after that, you can find resource you care about under the folder k8sdumps.
