Forcibly Restarting a Logstash Cluster

If a Logstash cluster is faulty due to long-term running or other unknown reasons, you can forcibly restart the cluster to restore it.

Constraints

  • A cluster becomes unavailable during restart. Exercise caution.
  • For a cluster in working state, the Logstash process is stopped during restart.
    • If Keepalive is disabled for pipelines, restarting the cluster will stop all running pipelines.
    • If Keepalived is enabled, Logstash will try restoring these pipelines. If the Logstash process is restarted within 10 minutes, the pipelines will be restored to running. Otherwise, the restoration fails.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the CSS management console.
  2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Clusters > Logstash. The cluster list is displayed.
  3. In the cluster list, locate the row that contains the target cluster, and choose More > Force Restart in the Operation column.
  4. In the Force Restart Cluster VM dialog box, confirm the restart information and click OK.

    During the cluster restart, the cluster status is Processing and the task status is Restarting. If the cluster status changes to Available, the cluster has been restarted successfully.
