Persistence Cluster Administration

You can perform administrative actions on a persistence cluster from the Persistence Clusters Table by clicking the three dots on the right hand side of the row, and selecting one of the following actions under the Admin section of the menu:

Action Description
Suspend Cluster

Suspend all services in the cluster, in preparation for saving the contents of its persistence services. For background information, see Saving and Loading Persistence State in TIBCO FTL® - Enterprise Edition Administration. You need to manually restart all persistence services to bring the cluster back online.

Note: This command is only available when disk persistence is disabled.
Save Cluster

Save the data state of all the persistence services in the cluster. This command is visible only after suspending the persistence cluster. For background information, see Saving and Loading Persistence State in TIBCO FTL® - Enterprise Edition Administration.

Note: This command is only available when disk persistence is disabled.
Force Quorum Formation

Force this cluster to form a quorum.

Note: Before using this command, read Before Forcing a Quorum in TIBCO FTL® - Enterprise Edition Administration.

This command is only available when relevant.

Backup Cluster Back up the disks. When disk persistence is enabled, this command backs up the files associated with disk persistence. See Disk Persistence Backup and Restore in TIBCO FTL® - Enterprise Edition Administration.
Begin Online Compaction

Instruct all members of the persistence cluster to begin a disk compaction. If there is not enough disk space, the persistence service will not start compaction, and will log an error message. For details, see Compact Disk Persistence Files with Persistence Service Online in TIBCO FTL® - Enterprise Edition Administration.

Note: This command is only available when disk persistence is enabled.
