Restarting Snapshot Manager
If you need to restart Snapshot Manager, it's important that you restart it correctly so that your environmental data is preserved.
To restart Snapshot Manager in the Docker environment
Warning:
Do not use commands such as docker restart or docker stop and docker start to restart Snapshot Manager. Use the docker run command described below.
- On the instance where Snapshot Manager is installed, enter the following command:
# sudo docker run -it --rm -u 0 -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock veritas/flexsnap-deploy:<version> restart
Here, version represents the currently installed Snapshot Manager product version.
For example:
# sudo docker run -it -rm -u 0 -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock veritas/flexsnap-deploy:10.1.x.xxxx restart
Note:
Ensure that you enter the command without any line breaks.
To restart Snapshot Manager in the Podman environment
- First, stop the Snapshot Manager by using the following command on the instance where Snapshot Manager is installed:
# podman run -it --rm -u 0 -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint -v /run/podman/podman.sock:/run/podman/podman.sock veritas/flexsnap-deploy:<version> stop
- Then, start it again by using the following command:
# podman run -it --rm -u 0 -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint -v /run/podman/podman.sock:/run/podman/podman.sock veritas/flexsnap-deploy:<version> start
Note:
Ensure that you enter the commands without any line breaks.
