Rolling Back or Rewinding to a Snapshot From a VDB
Developer's Guide / Command Line Interface Guide / CLI Cookbook: Common Workflows, Tasks, and Examples / CLI Cookbook: VDBs / CLI Cookbook: Rolling Back a VDB / Rolling Back or Rewinding to a Snapshot From a VDB

  1. Log into the Delphix Engine. 

    ssh admin@delphix_engine

  2. List Timeflows for the database that you want to rollback to.

    de > ls
de > timeflow
de timeflow > ls

  3. Switch to the VDB you want to rollback.

    de timeflow > cd /database
de database > ls
de database > select "vdb_example"

  4. Rollback VDB using the VDB rollback function (note this can also be done in the GUI).

    de database 'vdb_example' > rollback
de database 'vdb_example' rollback *> set timeflowPointParameters.container=
de database 'vdb_example' rollback *> set timeflowPointParameters.location=
de database 'vdb_example' rollback *> commit
