Starting a Graph

Scenario

You can start graphs in Stopped status in the graph list so that they can be accessed and analyzed again.

Graphs in Running status cannot be started.

Procedure

1. Log in to the GES management console.
2. In the navigation tree on the left, select Graph Management.
3. Locate the target graph in the graph list and choose More > Start in the Operation column.
   • If the graph to be started has backups, a dialog box is displayed indicating that you can select either of the following methods to start the graph:
     • Restore Last Graph: Restart the graph that stopped running.
     • Start Backup: Start the graph using the backup data.

     After selecting a startup method, click Yes. The graph status becomes Preparing and the progress is displayed.

   • If the graph to be started does not have backups, the graph status changes to Preparing and the progress is displayed after you click Start.

4. After the graph is started, the status changes from Preparing to Starting. Wait several minutes. When the startup is successful, the graph status is switched to Running.
