Checking a repository

The appliance can perform a diagnostic check of a repository volume when errors occur. Core errors
could be the result of it being improperly shut down, or a hardware failure, among other reasons.
NOTE: This procedure must only be performed for diagnostic purposes.
To check a repository:
1. On the Configuration tab, click Repositories, select > next to the repository that you want to check.
2. In the Actions pane, click Check.
The Check Repository dialog box appears.
3. In the Check Repository dialog box, click Check.
NOTE: If the check fails, restore the repository from an archive.

Deleting a repository

To delete a repository:
1. On the Configuration tab, click Repositories, select > next to the repository that you want to delete.
2. In the Actions pane, click Delete.
3. In the Delete Repository dialog box, click Delete.
CAUTION: When a repository is deleted, the data contained in the repository is discarded and
cannot be recovered.
When you delete a repository, then you must go through the Open Manage System Administrator
and delete the virtual disks that housed the repository. After you delete the virtual disks, you can re-
provision the disks and recreate the repository.

Remounting volumes

To remount the volumes:
1. Navigate to the Core Console.
2. Appliance → Tasks.
3. Click Remount Volumes.
