.alter cluster policy query_weak_consistency command

Examples
alter
alter
command:
.alter cluster policy query_weak_consistency ```{
"PercentageOfNodes": 10,
"MinimumNumberOfNodes": 2,
"MaximumNumberOfNodes": 20,
"SuperSlackerNumberOfNodesThreshold": -1,
"EnableMetadataPrefetch": false,
"MaximumLagAllowedInMinutes": 10,
"RefreshPeriodInSeconds": 300
}```
Output
PolicyName | EntityName | Policy | ChildEntities | EntityType |
---|---|---|---|---|
QueryWeakConsistencyPolicy | {"PercentageOfNodes": 10, "MinimumNumberOfNodes": 2, "MaximumNumberOfNodes": 20, "SuperSlackerNumberOfNodesThreshold": -1, "EnableMetadataPrefetch": false, "MaximumLagAllowedInMinutes": 10, "RefreshPeriodInSeconds": 300} | Cluster |
For demonstrating the alter-merge
, we'll assume the following policy is set prior to executing the command:
{
"PercentageOfNodes": 20,
"MinimumNumberOfNodes": 10,
"MaximumNumberOfNodes": 100,
"SuperSlackerNumberOfNodesThreshold": -1,
"EnableMetadataPrefetch": false,
"MaximumLagAllowedInMinutes": 5,
"RefreshPeriodInSeconds": 30
}
alter-merge
alter-merge
command:
.alter-merge cluster policy query_weak_consistency @'{"PercentageOfNodes": 30, "MaximumLagAllowedInMinutes": 15}'
Output
PolicyName | EntityName | Policy | ChildEntities | EntityType |
---|---|---|---|---|
QueryWeakConsistencyPolicy | {"PercentageOfNodes": 30, "MinimumNumberOfNodes": 10, "MaximumNumberOfNodes": 100, "SuperSlackerNumberOfNodesThreshold": -1, "EnableMetadataPrefetch": false, "MaximumLagAllowedInMinutes": 15, "RefreshPeriodInSeconds": 30} | Cluster |
As can be seen, only PercentageOfNodes
and MaximumLagAllowedInMinutes
were modified (whereas if the alter
command was used instead, the remaining properties would be also modified, and set to their defaults).
