Launching and Stopping Riak CS
To launch Riak CS in the background:
sudo riak-cs start
To run Riak CS with an interactive Erlang console:
sudo riak-cs console
When Riak CS is running, the Riak CS process appears in the process list. To check for the Riak CS process, enter:
ps -ef | grep riak-cs
To stop Riak CS, enter:
sudo riak-cs stop
You can use the command
sudo riak-cs attach
to attach and obtain an interactive console to a running instance of Riak CS.
You can check the liveness of your Riak CS installation with the
riak-cs ping
command, which should return pong
if Riak CS is up and
running.
riak-cs ping
Please note that riak-cs ping
tests only the liveness of Riak CS and
does not test the connection between Riak CS and Riak. In order to test
that, you can run a GET
request against the /riak-cs/ping
endpoint of a Riak
CS node, as in the example below:
curl http://localhost:8080/riak-cs/ping
