Download Disk

Purpose​

Download Disk — browse the disk images available on the Fabric host and download any of them straight to your machine.

Read inventory + download. Uploading is the inverse flow on Upload Disk.

When to use it​

  • To pull a host-side disk image onto your workstation for offline inspection or archive
  • To retrieve a converted or migrated output path after a job finishes
  • Prefer this page when the job matches the purpose above
  • After Disk Converter or Pipeline completes, to fetch the output file

How to get there​

  • Route / id: /download-disk
  • Nav: More — images, migrations & managers → Download Disk (sidebar, command palette, or desktop nav)

Operate from the console (UX)​

  1. Open the page and wait for the host disk-image list to load (or use header Refresh).
  2. Browse or search the listed images — name, format, size, and path.
  3. Choose an image and start the download to your browser's download location.
  4. Confirm the file size matches expectations before transferring elsewhere.
  5. For inventory without download, Disk Images is a read-only table of the same class of artifacts.

Typical flow: finish convert/migrate → open Download Disk → fetch the output path → optionally delete local copies when done. Paths are host-local under directories such as /var/lib/… — not remote lab URLs.

Operator tip: large downloads can take time; keep the tab open until the browser finishes.

Empty / fail: Error banner, empty table, or failed toast — confirm you are signed in, zyvor-fabricd is healthy (/readyz on http://127.0.0.1:<port> or https://<host>), and any backend this page needs (FluxVM, storage, network) is reachable. See Admin basics.

Success: Live data loads without error; creates/updates appear in the list or detail view and any confirmation toast clears cleanly.
