Haylix have developed a function to allow our clients to manually stop/start/reboot instances or environments utilising Slack.
To access this functionality you will be required to complete a Haylix on-boarding process that will grant you access to a Haylix shared Slack channel. We use the shared Slack channel to ensure we can monitor activities and see when you have enabled or disabled environments.
Note: Production environments can be listed but not stopped or disabled
Ops Slack Commands
In your Haylix Slack channel you can use the following commands to interact with your environment:
ops help
ops list
ops reboot instance <instance_id>
ops start instance <instance_id>
ops stop instance <instance_id>
ops start env <environment name>
ops stop env <environment name>
To Stop/Start Individual Instances
To stop/start/reboot individual instances you will need to use the <Instance ID> located in the first column of the table shown below.
Example: ops stop instance i-02367xxxxxxxxxxxx
Databases will also need to use the <Instance ID> again in the first column of the table below, however, AWS database Instance IDs are in a friendlier format than other server names.
To keep it simple; always use the Instance ID column as the identifier with the instance command.
To stop/start Entire Environments
Use the following commands:
ops start env <environment name>
ops stop env <environment name>
You can find the environment name by listing assets using the ops list command. Assets are grouped by their respective environment name.
Note: An error will appear if you attempt to start/stop instances or environments whilst already in another stop/start process
To List The Environments Resources
Use the ops list command
