Restarting Instance

Last updated: 2022-05-12 12:24:11

Overview
Instance restart is a common maintenance method for Lighthouse and is similar to restarting the OS on a local computer.
Notes
Preparing to restart instances: The Lighthouse instance cannot provide services during restart. Make sure before restarting the instance that it has stopped receiving service requests.
How to restart instances: We recommended you restart an instance by using the restart operations provided by Tencent Cloud instead of running the restart command in the instance (such as the relaunch command under Windows and the Reboot command under Linux).
Restart time: Generally, it takes just a few minutes from when the instance starts to execute the restart operation to when the operating system is completely started.
Physical features of instances: Restarting an instance does not change its physical features. Its public and private IP addresses as well as stored data will not be changed.
Directions
Note: 
During instance restart, soft restart will be performed first by default. If soft restart fails, forced (hard) restart will be performed automatically.
