Replicated CLI Reference

Generated documentation on the default Replicated CLI commands available for all Replicated installed instances.

This content is associated with a legacy version of the Replicated product. For the current Replicated product documentation, see docs.replicated.com.

After installing replicated onto a remote host a CLI is enabled that can be utilized for both management and maintenance. This tool can be especially helpful when debugging issues that can arise if the replicated-ui is not fully installed or working properly.

Source replicated.alias

If command not found is displayed when attempting to execute the replicated CLI we will need to source the replicated.alias file.

source /etc/replicated.alias

Version

List version of currently running replicated components.

replicated -version

Status

This provides the current status of replicated.

replicated status

Apps

List ID, Sequence, and Status of running app and prior versions installed on this host.

replicated apps

App

App sub-commands allow manipulating app state and version.

Show app info in JSON format

replicated app <appid>

App state

Show and modify app state

replicated app <appid> status|components|start|stop|pause|unpause|settings
Command Description
v2.0 status Show app status (Started, Paused, etc)
components List app components
start | stop | pause | unpause Transition app into the specified state
v2.1 settings Export app settings in JSON format

The settings command is useful for automating an installation.

Sometimes app state might be locked for extended periods of time depending on the app launch procedure and various timeout settings. In cases like this, app can be forced to transition into the Stopped state by using the -f switch.

replicated app <app_id> stop -f

App updates

Trigger a check for updates. The -f switch can be used to ignore local cache and perform full YAML sync for pending updates.

replicated app <app_id> update-check -f

v2.2 List pending updates. Note that this will not trigger an update check.

replicated app <app_id> updates list

v2.0 Install the specified app version. Note that all preceding required versions will be installed as well.

Obsolete

This command has been superseded by the next command.

replicated app <appid> update install <sequence number>

v2.2 Install the specified app version. Note that all preceding required versions will be installed as well.

replicated app <appid> updates install <sequence number>

App preflight checks

v2.2 Run preflight checks

replicated app <appid> run-checks

v2.2 Show preflight checks status

replicated app <appid> run-checks status

v2.2 Dismiss preflight checks errors and warnings

replicated app <appid> run-checks dismiss

Snapshots

v2.5.0 Show available snapshots for an installed app. This command will use settings for installed app to discover information about snapshots.

replicated snapshot list app <app id>

v2.5.0 Show available snapshots from a location on the local file system. This command can be used when application has not been installed yet in cases when recovery from a snapshot is needed.

replicated snapshot list location <location>

v2.8.0 Start a snapshot. When the optional --wait flag is specified, the command will block until the current snapshot is complete. The optional --exclude-app-data flag indicates to back up only Replicated data, excluding all vendor application data from the snapshot.

replicated snapshot start <app id>:<version> --wait --exclude-app-data

v2.5.0-2.10.4 Restore an application from the specified snapshot. When optional --dismiss-prechecks flag is specified, failed preflight checks will be ignored. The optional --node-timeout flag indicates how long to wait for the initial node to connect. The default is 60 seconds.

Warning

This command cannot be used on a system with an already installed license.

replicated snapshot restore <location> <snapshot id> --dismiss-prechecks --node-timeout <seconds>
