How to resolve application issues
Arpio console issues are raised for configuration steps, warnings about your backup & recovery health, and errors from your cloud provider.
Overview
There are 2 main categories of issues:
Backup issues
- If your RPO graph on the top right still shows regular recovery points, then the issue is informational.
- If new recovery point captures are blocked, an additional "Backups failing" email is sent. Resolve the issue, or de-select the problematic resource from the application.
Recovery Environment issues
- When there is not an active failover, issues are raised for the infrastructure resources that are maintained during standby.
- It is optimal to resolve these issues before launching a Test or Recovery. If unresolved, you can expect the named resource and dependent resources to fail.
- When there is an active Test or Recovery, additional issues are raised for compute resources that are only created in your recovery environment during a failover.
- Use the Recovery Environment tab to identify which resources are in a Failed or Queued state. If your recovery application is functional without these resources, then you can choose to ignore the issues and address them before a future test.
- If critical resources are in a Failed state, see below.
How to remediate
When you receive an email notification about a novel issue, click the link to sign into your Arpio console.
On the application Issues tab, expand the issue to view more details.
- The timestamp on the bottom right shows the most recent occurrence of this issue. If the timestamp pre-dates changes to your application, then the issue should clear on the next backup or restore attempt.
- If an "original error" message is shown, this likely originated from AWS, Azure, or the Kubernetes control plane. Jump to those environments to address the root cause.
Common types of issues
- Kubernetes timeouts: Pod logs can indicate what's preventing the resource from deploying, if it has not already become healthy.
- Quota limits: Your recovery environment may require even higher limits than your source environment. Request a limit increase through the AWS/Azure console, then click Resume Restore.
