💖 incus-restart — Restart instances 💖

okay bestie, you're in the manual pages for Incus, the command line client 👑 (yes that's the whole manual name, <italic>Incus - Command line client</italic>, we're fancy). and this page? this page is about restarting your instances, which is giving "have you tried turning it off and on again" but make it infrastructure 💅

✨ NAME ✨

incus-restart — Restart instances 🔄

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

incus restart ([:]...|--all [:...]) [flags]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Description:

Restart instances 🫶

that's it. that's the whole description. sometimes the manpage is a girl of few words, and honestly? iconic. periodt.

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -a, --all[=false] — Run against all instances 🌈 (yes, all of them, every single one, the whole squad)
  • --console[=""] — Immediately attach to the console 🔥 like, no chill, no waiting, straight in
  • -f, --force[=false] — Force the instance to stop 😤 (when it's being stubborn, we get a lil forceful)
  • --timeout=-1 — Time to wait for the instance to shutdown cleanly ⏳ the default is -1, no cap, that's literally what it says

🎀 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🎀

these ones are the family hand-me-downs, they come from the parent command and they're still slaying 💜

  • --debug[=false] — Show all debug messages 🐛 spill the tea, tell me everything
  • --explain[=false] — If the command is valid, explain its parsed arguments instead of running it 🧠 so it's giving "tell me what you would do" instead of actually doing it
  • --force-local[=false] — Force using the local unix socket 🏠 stay home, stay local
  • -h, --help[=false] — Print help 🙋♀️ ask and you shall receive
  • --project="" — Override the source project 📂 default is the empty string ""
  • -q, --quiet[=false] — Don't show progress information 🤫 silent but deadly (in a good way)
  • --sub-commands[=false] — Use with help or --help to view sub-commands 🌿 little baby commands, so cute
  • -v, --verbose[=false] — Show all information messages 📢 the opposite of --quiet, she's a yapper
  • --version[=false] — Print version number 🏷️

📜 HISTORY 📜

ngl, one thing to remember bestie: these options have their defaults baked right in ([=false], [=""], =-1), so when you see the brackets, that's the default, not ✨vibes✨. and --force really does force the instance to stop, so use it like you mean it 😭

and that's the whole page, bestie 💖 this was Incus - Command line client, auto generated by spf13/cobra, Sep 2026 ✨ go restart something and slay 👑🌸
