Property values

BackupSchedule

Name Description Value

additionalErrorInfo Additional information about the error. string
code The code of error that occurred. string
message The message of the error. string
target The target resource of the error. string

Certificate

Name Description Value
pem PEM formatted public key. string

ClusterResourceProperties

Name Description Value
authenticationMethod Which authentication method Cassandra should use to authenticate clients. 'None' turns off authentication, so should not be used except in emergencies. 'Cassandra' is the default password based authentication. The default is 'Cassandra'. 'Cassandra'
'Ldap'
'None'
autoReplicate The form of AutoReplicate that is being used by this cluster. 'AllKeyspaces'
'None'
'SystemKeyspaces'

'VPN'
backupSchedules List of backup schedules that define when you want to back up your data. BackupSchedule[]
cassandraAuditLoggingEnabled Whether Cassandra audit logging is enabled bool
cassandraVersion Which version of Cassandra should this cluster converge to running (e.g., 3.11). When updated, the cluster may take some time to migrate to the new version. string
clientCertificates List of TLS certificates used to authorize clients connecting to the cluster. All connections are TLS encrypted whether clientCertificates is set or not, but if clientCertificates is set, the managed Cassandra cluster will reject all connections not bearing a TLS client certificate that can be validated from one or more of the public certificates in this property. Certificate[]
clusterNameOverride If you need to set the clusterName property in cassandra.yaml to something besides the resource name of the cluster, set the value to use on this property. string
clusterType Type of the cluster. If set to Production, some operations might not be permitted on cluster. 'NonProduction'
'Production'
deallocated Whether the cluster and associated data centers has been deallocated. bool
delegatedManagementSubnetId Resource id of a subnet that this cluster's management service should have its network interface attached to. The subnet must be routable to all subnets that will be delegated to data centers. The resource id must be of the form '/subscriptions/<subscription id>/resourceGroups/<resource group>/providers/Microsoft.Network/virtualNetworks/<virtual network>/subnets/<subnet>' string
extensions Extensions to be added or updated on cluster. string[]
externalDataCenters List of the data center names for unmanaged data centers in this cluster to be included in auto-replication. string[]
externalGossipCertificates List of TLS certificates used to authorize gossip from unmanaged data centers. The TLS certificates of all nodes in unmanaged data centers must be verifiable using one of the certificates provided in this property. Certificate[]
externalSeedNodes List of IP addresses of seed nodes in unmanaged data centers. These will be added to the seed node lists of all managed nodes. SeedNode[]
hoursBetweenBackups (Deprecated) Number of hours to wait between taking a backup of the cluster. int
initialCassandraAdminPassword Initial password for clients connecting as admin to the cluster. Should be changed after cluster creation. Returns null on GET. This field only applies when the authenticationMethod field is 'Cassandra'. string

Constraints:
Sensitive value. Pass in as a secure parameter.
prometheusEndpoint Hostname or IP address where the Prometheus endpoint containing data about the managed Cassandra nodes can be reached. SeedNode
provisionError Error related to resource provisioning. CassandraError
provisioningState The status of the resource at the time the operation was called. 'Canceled'
'Creating'
'Deleting'
'Failed'
'Succeeded'
'Updating'
repairEnabled Should automatic repairs run on this cluster? If omitted, this is true, and should stay true unless you are running a hybrid cluster where you are already doing your own repairs. bool
restoreFromBackupId To create an empty cluster, omit this field or set it to null. To restore a backup into a new cluster, set this field to the resource id of the backup. string
scheduledEventStrategy How the nodes in the cluster react to scheduled events 'Ignore'
