  • Explanation:
    • The first line indicates the status of the scheduler. ‘Y’ implies that the scheduler is on and ‘N’ implies that the scheduler is off.
    • The second line provides the status of the source connection. ‘I’ means that the source is in idle state and no activity is ongoing, ‘R’ implies a running state meaning some activity is in process and ‘E’ means that there is some error on the source side. The actual status message is also available following ‘I’, ‘R’ or ‘E’ (separated by a | character).
    • The third line provides the status of the destination connection. ‘I’ means that the destination is in idle state and no activity is ongoing, ‘R’ implies a running state meaning some activity is in process and ‘E’ means that there is some error on the destination side. The actual status message is also available following ‘I’, ‘R’ or ‘E’ (separated by a | character).
    • The fourth line provides the license status of the Ingest instance.
    • The fifth line talks about the next series of steps to be undertaken by the user.

Get Recovery Status

Get the Recovery status for the current Ingest instance:

URLhttp://<host>:<port>/ingest?cmd=ha

Method: GET

URL Params:

  • cmd –
    • Description – Short for command. It is used to describe the type of settings being saved or fetched.
    • Values – To get the current Recovery status, value is ‘ha’.
    • Example – http://localhost:3000/ingest?cmd=ha

Response:

  1. When a fresh installation of Ingest is launched, the response will be as follows –
    {
    code“: “NEW_OR_RECOVER”,
    description“: “New Instance or Recovery?”
    }
    Here, the code indicates the current state of recovery. “NEW_OR_RECOVER” means the user needs to choose between a fresh new instance and an old instance from which data needs to be recovered. Choosing ‘Restore’ will load the current instance with data from subsequently chosen instance (provided the chosen instance had the recovery feature configured).
  2. If ‘New Instance’ is selected, then no additional data needs to be provided and a fresh Ingest instance will be started. However, if ‘Restore’ is selected, then the response of the above API will be as follows –
    {
    code“: “GET_AWS_PARAMS”,
    description“: “Enter AWS Access Details”
    }
    Optionally, a ‘region’ field might also be present with the value of AWS region. The code “GET_AWS_PARAMS” means that certain AWS credentials need to be entered in order to fetch the list of Ingest instances with recovery configured. Here, you can enter values such as AWS Region, Access Key Id, Secret Access Key, Proxy Host, Proxy Port. Proxy Host and Proxy Port are optional fields while other fields are mandatory.
  3. Once the above details are entered and submitted, the response of the above API becomes –
    {
    code“: “GET_INSTANCES”,
    instanceList“: [
    {
    isActive: false,
    expiry: <The timestamp when the most recent state of the current instance was saved before it became inactive>,
    name: <Instance name>
    },
    {
    isActive: true,
    expiry: <The timestamp when the most recent state of the current instance was saved before it became inactive>,
    name: <Instance name>
    }
    ],
    description“: “Select an Instance”
    }
    The code “GET_INSTANCES” means that a list of instances is provided to choose from for recovery. The “instanceList” property is an array of instances. Each instance has a name, ‘isActive’ field to tell whether it is active or inactive and an expiry timestamp corresponding to the time when the most recent state of the current instance was saved before it became inactive. Only inactive instances can be selected for recovery.
  4. Once any instance is selected, the response of the above API changes to –
    {
    code“: “NORMAL”
    }
    This means that the ingest instance is being recovered and launched. Nothing needs to be done at this point.
  5. After some time, the response changes to-
    {
    code“: “READY”
    }
    At this point, the ingest instance is recovered and ready to be launched.

Provide data for recovery purposes

Provide the data during the Recovery process for the current Ingest instance:

URLhttp://<host>:<port>/ingest?cmd=hap

Method: POST

URL Params:

  • cmd –
    • Description – Short for command. It is used to describe the type of settings being saved or fetched.
    • Values – To update the data for Recovery process, value is ‘hap’.
    • Example – http://localhost:3000/ingest?cmd=hap

Request Payload and Response:

  1. When a fresh installation of Ingest is launched, the response of ‘/ingest?cmd=ha‘ API will be as follows –
    {
    code“: “NEW_OR_RECOVER”,
    description“: “New Instance or Recovery?”
    }
    At this point, the user needs to choose between a fresh new instance and an old instance from which data needs to be recovered.
  2. To launch a NEW instance, the payload for the above API ‘/ingest?cmd=hap‘ is –
    {
    code“: “NEW_OR_RECOVER”,
    type“: “new”
    }
    The response would be –
    {
    code”: “normal”
    }
    This means that a new instance is being launched. Once the code changes to ‘ready’, the instance is ready.

    To recover an existing instance, the payload would be –
    {
    code“: “NEW_OR_RECOVER”,
    type”: “recover”
    }
    The response would be –
    {
    code“: “GET_AWS_PARAMS”,
    description“: “Enter AWS Access Details”
    }

  3. At this stage, the AWS credentials such as AWS Region, Access Key Id, Secret Access Key, Proxy Host, Proxy Port need to be entered in order to fetch the list of Ingest instances with recovery configured. These details are provided in the payload for API ‘/ingest?cmd=hap‘ as shown below –

    },
    {
    isActive: true,
    expiry: <The timestamp when the most recent state of the current instance was saved before it became inactive>,
    name: <Instance name>
    }
    ],
    description”: “Select an Instance”
    }
  4. After getting a list of instances, one instance needs to be selected to recover the data from (only an inactive instance can be chosen). The payload for the API ”/ingest?cmd=hap” to select an instance would be like –
    {
    code“: “GET_INSTANCES”,
    name“: <Name of the selected instance as obtained in the previous stage in the ‘instanceList‘ array>
    }
    The response would be –
    {
    code“: “NORMAL”
    }
    This means that the ingest instance is being recovered and launched. Nothing needs to be done at this point.
  5. After some time, the response of the API ‘/ingest?cmd=ha‘ changes to –
