aws opsworkscm restore-server
Restores a backup to a server that is in a CONNECTION_LOST, HEALTHY, RUNNING, UNHEALTHY, or TERMINATED state. When you run RestoreServer, the server's EC2 instance is deleted, and a new EC2 instance is configured. RestoreServer maintains the existing server endpoint, so configuration management of the server's client devices (nodes) should continue to work. Restoring from a backup is performed by creating a new EC2 instance. If restoration is successful, and the server is in a HEALTHY state, AWS OpsWorks CM switches traffic over to the new instance. After restoration is finished, the old EC2 instance is maintained in a Running or Stopped state, but is eventually terminated. This operation is asynchronous. An InvalidStateException is thrown when the server is not in a valid state. A ResourceNotFoundException is thrown when the server does not exist. A ValidationException is raised when parameters of the request are not valid
Options
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
--backup-id <string> | The ID of the backup that you want to use to restore a server |
--server-name <string> | The name of the server that you want to restore |
--instance-type <string> | The type of instance to restore. Valid values must be specified in the following format: ^([cm][34]|t2).* For example, m5.large. Valid values are m5.large, r5.xlarge, and r5.2xlarge. If you do not specify this parameter, RestoreServer uses the instance type from the specified backup |
--key-pair <string> | The name of the key pair to set on the new EC2 instance. This can be helpful if the administrator no longer has the SSH key |
--cli-input-json <string> | Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by ``--generate-cli-skeleton``. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally |
--generate-cli-skeleton <string> | Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value ``input``, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for ``--cli-input-json``. If provided with the value ``output``, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command |
