update-config

Description

Update the configuration for one or all nodes in the cluster.

For the target nodes, update-config instructs each node, on startup, to set the engine variable (specified by the --key) to the --value.

If --set-global is specified, update-config will connect to the node (if the process is running) and run SET GLOBAL, setting the variable specified by the --key to the --value. This enables the variable’s value to be set before the node restarts.

Using --set-global is equivalent to running SET GLOBAL on a non-sync variable or running SET CLUSTER on a sync variable.

If --reset is specified, it will reset both the SET GLOBAL variables and the SingleStore config file variables.

If the engine variable (specified by the --key) is a sync variable:

You must specify the --memsql-id of the Master Aggregator.
You must specify the --set-global parameter.
You cannot specify the --all parameter.

Examples

The following example sets the general_log engine variable on all nodes on the local host.

Shell

sdb-admin update-config --all --set-global --key "general_log" --value "PARTIAL"

Toolbox is about to run 'memsqlctl update-config --key general_log --value PARTIAL --set-global'
on the following nodes:
    - On host 127.0.0.1:
      + 24084C82FD8E4342EF61ED4D85105A1CF5A264F5
      + B72DD1417CBAEAC04FD71ED3E0CAC81A723DB43C

Would you like to continue? [y/N]: y
✓ Updated configuration on 127.0.0.1  
Operation completed successfully

The following example attempts to set a sync variable on a leaf node.

Shell

sdb-admin update-config --memsql-id B72DD1417CBAEAC04FD71ED3E0CAC81A723DB43C \
--set-global --key "default_distributed_ddl_timeout" --value "15"

As expected, update-config fails with the following error:

Variable default_distributed_ddl_timeout must be set on a Master Aggregator

To correct this error, run sdb-admin update-config using the --memsql-id of the Master Aggregator.

      --role {master, aggregator, leaf, unknown}   Update only nodes with the given role. Possible roles are LEAF, AGGREGATOR, and MASTER (default Unspecified)
      --memsql-id MemsqlID                         The node ID of the node on which to update the configuration
      --reset                                      Reset the key to the default value (formerly --delete)
      --set-global                                 Execute the associated SET GLOBAL statement
      --value string                               The value to set for the key

Remarks

This command is interactive unless you use either the --yes or --json flags to override interactive behavior.
