VM troubleshooting
Booting VM in rescue mode
VM must be stopped before this routine.
When booted in rescue mode, a “live” boot image will be attached and used as a boot medium. You can then use the virtual console.
Starting VM in rescue mode via UI:
Starting VM in rescue mode is available via API call:
curl -X POST https://{{api-hostname}}/v1/user-resource/vm/rescue_start \
--header 'apikey: {{vm-owner-api-key}}' \
-d 'uuid={{vm-uuid}}'
* For a multi-site installation, the URL should include location identifier, e.g.:
https://{{api-hostname}}/v1/jkt01/user-resource/vm/rescue_start
Location identifier can be omitted for default location.
The rescue mode is enabled only for the current launch. Next time this VM is started it will follow a normal routine.
