My instance is offline showing today due to "Instances with no activity for over 10 days will be claimed back in to the pool" this issue. Can you please help me out to restore the instance back. Thanks!!

Hi @Umesh G 

 

I've been using PDI without any issues since this morning, but I've noticed several posts in the community about PDI being offline. Here are some points to consider:

  1. There is no support available for PDI.
  2. If you can wait, let's wait a bit longer.
  3. You can release this instance and start a new one, but you will lose your previous data. To avoid losing update sets in the future, make sure to take regular backups of your PDI.

There have been 3-4 posts in the community today about PDI failures or unavailability. Based on the responses, you might need to wait 1-2 days and hopefully, the PDI will be back online.

 

Backup and restore you PDI data using GITHUB

 

FYI, earlier Backup and restore feature was available for PDI's which is disccontinued since 15 DEC 2022

Link to that Post- https://developer.servicenow.com/blog.do?p=/post/update-to-restore-on-pdis/

 

However, there is a way to Backup your PDI Data using GITHUB

Hi @Umesh G 

 

as you might know, there is no support available from ServiceNow in relation to PDIs, hence you’re limited to two options:

  •  wait, it should come online again after some time.
  •  If you get tired of waiting. Release your instance and request a fresh installation. Note! Any work that hasn’t been backed up will be list for good.

 

If my answer has helped with your question, please mark my answer as the accepted solution and give a thumbs up.

Best regards
Anders
