Component Control

The Component Control section provides low-level operational tools that let you manage individual containers running within your FluxCloud application.

How To Access

My Apps → Active Apps → App Details → Manage App → Component Control

Navigate to the My Apps tab, select an application from Active Apps, click Manage App, then go to the Component Control section

Backend Selector

At the top of each tab, you'll find a FluxNode IP selector, letting you choose which node you want to inspect or control. This allows you to manage individual node instances of your app. A reload button is also available to refresh the list of currently active FluxNodes running your application.

Whether you're performing maintenance, debugging live issues, or managing storage and data continuity, Component Control is where fine-tuned access meets hands-on functionality.

When to Use Component Control

Use this section when you need:

• Full access to your container’s environment, filesystem, and data

• To create or restore backups before updates, migrations, or cancellations

• To debug and test in real-time using terminal commands

• To investigate or manage stored logs, temp files, or persistent volume data

• Direct manipulation of component-level behavior on the local level
