Cluster Restore

As important as backup a database is the ability to restore the backup. Aerospike allows you to do restores while the cluster is still operating.

You can also use the command line version of the restore program.

For Aerospike with security enabled the user needs to have sys-admin and read-write roles in order to access this functionality.

	Click on the "Manage" at the top.
	Click on "Cluster Restore" on the left.
	Enter the information for the restoration. The username and password for the server that will be running the backup.
	As an advanced option, you may opt to override the namespace of the data.
	The number of threads will control how fast the restoration will run. Be careful not to run it too high or it will interfere with the database operations.
	If you check the "Ignore Generation Number" checkbox, all data will be overwritten regardless as to the generation number.
