Elevate

VirtFusion 4.1+ supports the new Elevate functionality. When you elevate a server, it will allow you to make changes to the server without making them final. If the changes are successful, you commit those changes. If they don't work as expected, you discard the changes and the server is reverted back to the point of elevation.

Elevating a server

Navigate to the server you would like to elevate in the administration area. You will see a button on the power panel.

Once you have clicked that button, you will be presented with a popup.

Select the drives you would like to elevate and click the Elevate button.

A task will be added to the queue and the server will be elevated.

Once elevated, the elevate control area will display.

You can now make changes to the server.

Committing changes

Once you have finished making your changes to the server and are happy that everything is how you want it, you can commit the changes.

Click the Commit button for each drive to make the changes complete. Once all drives have been committed, the elevation is finished.

Discarding changes

If your changes did not go to plan, you can discard the changes and revert back to the state the server was at the point of elevation.

Click the Discard button to discard all changes for all disks.
