Restore Internal Object Store

Before you start

Goal

  • Restore a backup of the Altair SLC Hub internal object store

Prerequisites

  • A previously taken backup

Internal Object Store restore procedure

To restore the internal object store, the data directory is restored from a backup.

To restore a backup, make sure the Hub is stopped. This can be done by running:

hubctl service stop

Warning

This may cause data loss if you haven't created a backup.

First clear the data directory:

rm -rf [var directory]/objstore/data

Now restore the data from the backup with the following command:

tar -xvf HubObjectStoreBackup.tar [var directory]/objstore/

Delete the [var directory]\objstore\data directory. Now right click on the backup zip file, select Extract all, set the directory to be extracted to as [var directory]\objstore and click Extract.

Verification

Backup Restored

  • Verify the backup has been extracted to the directory correctly
