Cluster Management with Tools

Tools Overview

SingleStore provides a suite of tools to manage and interact with your cluster.

SingleStore Toolbox

For clusters running MemSQL 6.7 or later, you should use SingleStore Toolbox to deploy, administer, and manage your cluster. The associated command-line tools are packaged in Debian, RPM, and tarball files which allows them to be part of common automated deployment workflows.

Most of the tools are part of the singlestoredb-toolbox package; however, the lower-level management tool, memsqlctl, is part of the singlestoredb-server package (along with the SingleStore engine itself).

For more information on the tools, see the following links:

  • sdb-deploy. Installs memsqlctl and the SingleStore database engine to hosts in the cluster.

  • sdb-admin. Helps you manage a SingleStorecluster.

  • sdb-report. Collects and performs diagnostic checks on your cluster.

  • sdb-toolbox-config. Performs host registration.

  • memsqlctl. Provides lower-level access to manage nodes on a host.

SQL Clients and Tools

The following tools allow you to issue queries against your cluster, and as with the management tools above, they are packaged in Debian, RPM, or tar files for easy deployment and management:
