Restart a Conduit Installation

If the initial reconfigure is stopped or your installation is damaged beyond reconfiguring again, it may be necessary to start over.

On the Conduit appliance:

1. Run conduit-ctl cleanse

2. Remove the Conduit package

   • deb: dpkg --purge conduit-appliance... using the appropriate package name.
   • rpm: rpm -e (conduit-appliance...) using the appropriate package name.

3. Then Run

   rm -rf /etc/conduit
   rm -rf /var/opt/conduit
   rm -rf /var/run/conduit
   rm -rf /var/log/conduit
   rm -rf /opt/conduit
   

4. Re-install Conduit

If the elasticsearch cluster is unhealthy and needs purged, run:

sudo conduit-ctl stop elasticsearch
sudo rm -rf /var/opt/conduit/elasticsearch/data/conduit
sudo conduit-ctl reconfigure

If eleasticsearch does not restart during reconfigure:

sudo conduit-ctl start elasticsearch
