FABSYS_RESTORE-KILL(1)

NAME
fabsys_restore-kill - Forcibly kill a running restore request

SYNOPSIS
fabsys restore-kill <req_id> [--note <note>]

DESCRIPTION
The fabsys restore-kill command causes a running restore request run to abort, and immediately be considered "failed". This can be useful if a backup run was accidentally started, or if a run is malfunctioning or hanging for some reason.

Note that killing a backup run does not immediately kill in-progress volume restore processes, or aspects of a restore request. However, all aspects of the request should notice fairly quickly that the request run has failed (after a few minutes at most), and will abort themselves.

OPTIONS

<req_id>
    The restore request id to kill. Restore request ids can be shown with the "fabsys_restore-status(1)" command.

--note <note>
    This flag specifies a free-form note to indicate why the restore request is being killed.

PRIVILEGED REQUIRED
The issuer of this command must be able to read the FABS configuration (specifically, the database access information), typically in /etc/fabs/fabs.yaml.d/.
