Integrity Check

Elastio recovery point integrity check is a fundamental way to ensure that the recovery point contents are intact and recoverable. Elastio recovery point integrity check can be performed on an Elastio recovery point of any kind. The way this check works is it scans the recovery point for Scalez structures consistency thus ensuring that those structures can be read and restored. The check can be run in Elastio CLI for one or more recovery points at a time. By default recovery point integrity check runs as a background job and it can be monitored using the elastio job monitor... command generated in the output.

Note: if more than 1 recovery point will be included for the scan there would be several elastio job monitor...commands generated, one for each integrity check background job.

To run Elastio integrity check use the following command:

elastio integrity-check recovery-points --rp <elastio-rp-id>

An example output for 1 recovery point:
