  • Starting a cluster

If necessary, you can stop and restart your YTsaurus cluster. When stopped, a cluster retains all its data. The data will be available again as soon as you restart the cluster.

Stopping a clusterStopping a cluster

Management console
CLI
REST API
gRPC API
  1. In the management console, navigate to the relevant folder.
  2. Go to Managed Service for YTsaurus.
  3. Find the cluster in the list, click , and select Stop.
  4. In the dialog box that opens, confirm that you want to stop the cluster and click Stop.

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI installed yet, install and initialize it.

By default, the CLI uses the folder specified when creating the profile. To change the default folder, use the yc config set folder-id <folder_ID> command. You can also set a different folder for any specific command using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

To stop a YTsaurus cluster, run this command:

yc managed-ytsaurus cluster stop <cluster_name_or_ID>

You can get the cluster ID and name with the list of clusters in the folder.

  1. Get an IAM token for API authentication and put it in an environment variable:

    export IAM_TOKEN="<IAM_token>"
    
  2. Call the Cluster.Stop method, e.g., via the following cURL request:

    curl \
        --request POST \
        --header "Authorization: Bearer $IAM_TOKEN" \
        --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
        --url 'https://ytsaurus.api.cloud.yandex.net/ytsaurus/v1/clusters/<cluster_ID>:stop'
    

    You can get the cluster ID with the list of clusters in the folder.

  3. Check the server response to make sure your request was successful.

  1. Get an IAM token for API authentication and put it in an environment variable:

    export IAM_TOKEN="<IAM_token>"
    
  2. Clone the cloudapi repository:

    cd ~/ && git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/yandex-cloud/cloudapi
    

    Below, we assume that the repository contents reside in the ~/cloudapi/ directory.

  3. Call the ClusterService.Stop method, e.g., via the following gRPCurl request:

    grpcurl \
        -format json \
        -import-path ~/cloudapi/ \
        -import-path ~/cloudapi/third_party/googleapis/ \
        -proto ~/cloudapi/yandex/cloud/ytsaurus/v1/cluster_service.proto \
        -rpc-header "Authorization: Bearer $IAM_TOKEN" \
        -d '{
              "cluster_id": "<cluster_ID>"
            }' \
        ytsaurus.api.cloud.yandex.net:443 \
        yandex.cloud.ytsaurus.v1.ClusterService.Stop
    

    You can get the cluster ID with the list of clusters in the folder.

  4. Check the server response to make sure your request was successful.

        --request POST \
        --header "Authorization: Bearer $IAM_TOKEN" \
        --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
        --url 'https://ytsaurus.api.cloud.yandex.net/ytsaurus/v1/clusters/<cluster_ID>:start'
    

    You can get the cluster ID with the list of clusters in the folder.
