Restoring a DCS Instance

Prerequisites

  • At least one master/standby or cluster DCS instance is in the Running state.
  • A backup task has been run to back up data in the instance to be restored and the status of the backup task is succeed.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the DCS console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select a region and a project.
  3. In the navigation pane, choose Cache Manager.
  4. Click the name of the DCS instance to display more details about the DCS instance.
  5. On the instance details page, click Backups & Restorations.

    A list of historical backup tasks is then displayed.

  6. Click Restore in the same row as the chosen backup task.
  7. Click OK to start instance restoration.
