Start and stop Boost processes

This pages describes the order in which different boost processes must be started and stopped

Start

1. Start YugabyteDB and wait for services to come online.

2. Start boostd-data process.

3. Start boostd process.

4. Start booster-http and booster-bitswap processes.

Stop

1. Stop booster-http and booster-bitswap processes.

2. Stop boostd process.

3. Stop boostd-data process.

4. Finally, you can stop YugabyteDB services.

YugabyteDB services are not required to be stopped if your maintenance work does not directly make changes to the DB itself. The DB can simply be disconnected from boost process by shutting down the boostd-data process.
