lbcli restart node-instance
Restarts a running node instance (Tech Preview).
Synopsis
Restarts a running node instance (Tech Preview).
Restarts a specific node instance's Lightbits services/instances.
This includes the duroslight service and the node management instance of the specified node.
To also restart the backend, specify --consider-backend=true (the default is false).
This is useful for dual-node servers where you want to restart a single node instance without affecting the other node or if you just want to restart the duroslight.
This operation will be blocked if it could cause data unavailability. Use --force to override this check.
This is a potentially disruptive operation that should be used with care. Only system administrators can execute this command.
Note that node maintenance operations (stop/start/restart) are a tech preview, for evaluative purposes only and API syntax might change. They should not be used in production clusters.
Examples:
Flag | Short | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
--help | -h | bool | Help for | |
--node-uuid | string | The UUID of the node instance to restart (required). | ||
--force | bool | Force a restart even if volumes could become unavailable (default: false). | ||
--consider-backend | bool | Whether to include the backend instance in the operation (default: false). |
