isi cloud recall

Recalls files from the cloud, restoring the full files to their original directories. To make sure that the specified files are present in the cloud, OneFS scans the cluster for SmartLink files prior to performing the recall.

Syntax

isi cloud recall <files>
 [--recursive | -r {yes | no}]
 [--verbose]
You can also provide a file matching filter to specify a set of files to act on. The basic syntax follows. For a full description on file matching criteria, use man isi-file-matching on the command line.

Options

<files>
The files to recall. For multiple specifications, use --files for each additional file name entry.
[--begin-filter] <criteria> [--end-filter]
A file matching filter that defines a set of files to act on. For a description of <criteria> and valid operators to use in the filter, enter man isi-file-matching on the command line.
{--recursive | -r} {yes | no}
Specifies whether the recall should apply recursively to nested subdirectories.
{--verbose | -v}

Displays more detailed information about the operation.

Usage

The isi cloud recall command restores the full file to its original directory, and overwrites the associated SmartLink file. If the file pool policy that originally archived the file to the cloud is still in effect, the next time the SmartPools job runs, the recalled file is archived to the cloud again. If you do not want the recalled file to be re-archived, you can move the file to a different directory that would not be affected by the file pool policy, or you can modify or delete the policy.

Examples

The following example recalls all files from the cloud for a directory and its subdirectories: 
isi cloud recall /ifs/data/archives/archives2014/projects/ --recursive yes
The command starts a cloud job. If you use the --verbose parameter, OneFS reports the job number, as in the following example: 
Created job [29]

You can use the isi cloud jobs view command with the job number to see information about the job.
