Ways to connect to child server when source server is destroyed

[nekomi2]

Hi, my source coolify server had to be reinstalled, so I lost my coolify dashboard. My child server still runs its services. Is there a way to reconnect the resources to a new dashboard, or do I need to take down all the docker containers and create the resources from the new dashboard?

Coolify doesn’t support reconnecting or importing existing containers from a previous dashboard. Since the dashboard stores all management metadata, once it’s lost, the new instance won’t recognize running services on the child server. You’ll need to stop the existing Docker containers manually. Then, reconnect the child server to the new dashboard and recreate your apps there. This ensures proper tracking and management. There's no automated recovery feature yet.
