environment variables:
$ export ROX_API_TOKEN=<api_token>

During a restore operation, if your connection is interrupted or you need to go offline, you can resume the restore operation.
If you do not have access to the machine running the resume operation, use the roxctl central db restore status
command to check the status of an ongoing restore operation.
In case of connection interruptions, the roxctl
CLI automatically tries to restore a task when the connection becomes available.
The automatic connection retries depend on the duration specified by the timeout
option.
Use the --timeout
option to specify the time in seconds, minutes, or hours, after which the roxctl
CLI stops trying to resume a restore operation.
If not specified, the default timeout is 10 minutes (10m
).
If a restore operation is stuck or if you want to cancel it, use the roxctl central db restore cancel
command to cancel an ongoing restore operation.
If a restore operation is stuck, or you have canceled it, or it timed out, you can resume the previous restore by re-running the original command.
