Manage Snapshot¶

The Manage Snapshot page lets you revert a snapshot and delete them.

You can take more than one snapshot of the LogPoint instances at any instant. You can also revert them at any time. Reverting the system to a snapshot deletes all the progress and changes. It also restores the database at the instance of the creation of the snapshot.

1. Go to Configure >> Settings >> Operations >> Manage Snapshot.

2. Select the LogPoint instances where you want to manage snapshot.

3. Click Next.

4. In the Action column, click the Delete () icon to remove a snapshot or click the Revert () icon to revert a LogPoint to the state of snapshot selected.

   Note

   • You cannot perform any action on a snapshot when its status is in progress.

   • Reverting to a snapshot also deletes all the later snapshots.

   • The system reboots while reverting to a snapshot and all the services stop. You might also lose the incoming logs during the reversion period.

   • While reverting a snapshot, the application heavily uses its resources. It may cause LogPoint to respond slowly. In such cases, you may need to reboot the system using the li-admin reboot command manually.

5. Click Next.
