restore

Restore a droplet with a previous image or snapshot. This will be a mirror copy of the image or snapshot to your droplet. Be sure you have backed up any necessary information prior to restore.

Usage

droplet_snapshots_list(droplet, ...)

droplet_restore(droplet, image, ...)

droplet_backups_list(droplet, ...)

Arguments

droplet

A droplet number or the result from a call to droplets()

name

(character) Optional. Name of the new snapshot you want to create. If not set, the snapshot name will default to the current date/time

(optional) The image ID of the backup image that you would like to restore.
