Default Re: DisasterRecovery - In Progress ( For 3 Days? )

Snaps are a little different from most servers since these are specility units. They do one thing and do it good. What makes these nice is the OS is so advanced.

Will the server shut down or just hang due to the recovery process? hang by your response.

You will need to know some basic linux to determine what process it is. Using the ps to list what process are running. Once you indentify the process you just use the kill # to stop it.

If not your only options would be to unplug it. It then should boot into the recovery console if it detects a problem. At that point It may be easier to reload the OS. But I would not the first time around.

A lot of time programs hang when a process can not access a directory or it's busy and can not connect.
