Configuration parameters
This section introduces the configuration parameters of DM-master.
Global configuration
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
name | The name of the DM-master. |
log-level | Specifies a log level from debug, info, warn, error, and fatal. The default log level is info. |
log-file | Specifies the log file directory. If the parameter is not specified, the logs are printed onto the standard output. |
master-addr | Specifies the address of DM-master which provides services. You can omit the IP address and specify the port number only, such as ":8261". |
advertise-addr | Specifies the address that DM-master advertises to the outside world. |
peer-urls | Specifies the peer URL of the DM-master node. |
advertise-peer-urls | Specifies the peer URL that DM-master advertises to the outside world. The value of advertise-peer-urls is by default the same as that of peer-urls. |
initial-cluster | The value of initial-cluster is the combination of the advertise-peer-urls value of all DM-master nodes in the initial cluster. |
join | The value of join is the combination of the advertise-peer-urls value of the existed DM-master nodes in the cluster. If the DM-master node is newly added, replace initial-cluster with join. |
ssl-ca | The path of the file that contains list of trusted SSL CAs for DM-master to connect with other components. |
ssl-cert | The path of the file that contains X509 certificate in PEM format for DM-master to connect with other components. |
ssl-key | The path of the file that contains X509 key in PEM format for DM-master to connect with other components. |
cert-allowed-cn | Common Name list. |
secret-key-path | The file path of the secret key, which is used to encrypt and decrypt upstream and downstream passwords. The file must contain a 64-character hexadecimal AES-256 secret key. One way to generate this key is by calculating SHA256 checksum of random data, such as head -n 256 /dev/urandom | sha256sum.
