Restarting Cloud Scale Technology services
Up to NetBackup versions 10.4 in the Cloud Scale Technology, the primary server deployment was performed in a monolithic way with all the services running in a single primary pod. Utilities like bp.kill_all and bp.start_all were used to start or stop the primary pod services.
From NetBackup version 10.5 and later, the services of the primary server are decoupled with the NBPEM/NBJM. As there is no separate script to restart the decoupled primary services, perform the following steps:
To restart the Cloud Scale Technology services
- Navigate to the
VRTSk8s-netbackup-<version>/scriptsfolder. - Run the
cloudscale_restart.shscript as follows:./cloudscale_restart.sh <action> <namespace>
Provide the namespace and the required action:
stop: Stops all the services under primary server (waits until all the services are stopped).
start: Starts all the services and waits until the services are up and running under primary server.
restart: Stops the services and waits until all the services are down. Then starts all the services and waits until the services are up and running.
Note:
Ignore if policy job pod does not come up in running state. Policy job pod would start once primary services start.
