Chapter 4. Performing cross-site operations with the REST API

4.1. Getting status of all backup locations

Retrieve the status of all backup locations with GET requests.

GET /rest/v2/caches/{cacheName}/x-site/backups/

Data Grid responds with the status of each backup location in JSON format, as in the following example:

{
  "NYC": {
    "status": "online"
  },
  "LON": {
    "status": "mixed",
    "online": [
      "NodeA"
    ],
    "offline": [
      "NodeB"
    ]
  }
}

Table 4.1. Returned Status
Value	Description
`online`	All nodes in the local cluster have a cross-site view with the backup location.
`offline`	No nodes in the local cluster have a cross-site view with the backup location.
`mixed`	Some nodes in the local cluster have a cross-site view with the backup location, other nodes in the local cluster do not have a cross-site view. The response indicates status for each node.

4.2. Getting status of specific backup locations

Retrieve the status of a backup location with GET requests.

GET /rest/v2/caches/{cacheName}/x-site/backups/{siteName}

Data Grid responds with the status of each node in the site in JSON format, as in the following example:

{
  "NodeA":"offline",
  "NodeB":"online"
}

Table 4.2. Returned Status
Value	Description
`online`	The node is online.
`offline`	The node is offline.
`failed`	Not possible to retrieve status. The remote cache could be shutting down or a network error occurred during the request.

4.3. Taking backup locations offline

Take backup locations offline with POST requests and the ?action=take-offline parameter.

POST /rest/v2/caches/{cacheName}/x-site/backups/{siteName}?action=take-offline

4.4. Bringing backup locations online

Bring backup locations online with the ?action=bring-online parameter.

POST /rest/v2/caches/{cacheName}/x-site/backups/{siteName}?action=bring-online

4.5. Pushing state to backup locations

Push cache state to a backup location with the ?action=start-push-state parameter.

POST /rest/v2/caches/{cacheName}/x-site/backups/{siteName}?action=start-push-state

4.6. Canceling state transfer

Cancel state transfer operations with the ?action=cancel-push-state parameter.

POST /rest/v2/caches/{cacheName}/x-site/backups/{siteName}?action=cancel-push-state

4.7. Getting state transfer status

Retrieve status of state transfer operations with the ?action=push-state-status parameter.

GET /rest/v2/caches/{cacheName}/x-site/backups?action=push-state-status

Data Grid responds with the status of state transfer for each backup location in JSON format, as in the following example:

{
   "NYC":"CANCELED",
   "LON":"OK"
}

Table 4.3. Returned status
Value	Description
`SENDING`	State transfer to the backup location is in progress.
`OK`	State transfer completed successfully.
`ERROR`	An error occurred with state transfer. Check log files.
`CANCELLING`	State transfer cancellation is in progress.

4.8. Clearing state transfer status

Clear state transfer status for sending sites with the ?action=clear-push-state-status parameter.

POST /rest/v2/caches/{cacheName}/x-site/local?action=clear-push-state-status

4.9. Modifying take offline conditions

Sites go offline if certain conditions are met. Modify the take offline parameters to control when backup locations automatically go offline.

Procedure

Check configured take offline parameters with GET requests and the take-offline-config parameter.
```
GET /rest/v2/caches/{cacheName}/x-site/backups/{siteName}/take-offline-config
```
The Data Grid response includes after_failures and min_wait fields as follows:
```
{
  "after_failures": 2,
  "min_wait": 1000
}
```
Modify take offline parameters in the body of PUT requests.
```
PUT /rest/v2/caches/{cacheName}/x-site/backups/{siteName}/take-offline-config
```
If the operation successfully completes, the service returns 204 (No Content).

4.10. Canceling state transfer from receiving sites

If the connection between two backup locations breaks, you can cancel state transfer on the site that is receiving the push.

Cancel state transfer from a remote site and keep the current state of the local cache with the ?action=cancel-receive-state parameter.

POST /rest/v2/caches/{cacheName}/x-site/backups/{siteName}?action=cancel-receive-state

4.11. Getting status of backup locations

Retrieve the status of all backup locations from Cache Managers with GET requests.

GET /rest/v2/cache-managers/{cacheManagerName}/x-site/backups/

Data Grid responds with status in JSON format, as in the following example:

{
   "SFO-3":{
      "status":"online"
   },
   "NYC-2":{

`offline`	No nodes in the local cluster have a cross-site view with the backup location.
`mixed`	Some nodes in the local cluster have a cross-site view with the backup location, other nodes in the local cluster do not have a cross-site view. The response indicates status for each node.
