Configuration
OpsCenter Security
Security configuration options and instructions.
Configuring events and alerts
The OpsCenter Event Log page in the Activities section displays a continuously updated list of events and alerts.
Configuring data collection and expiration
OpsCenter collects system and table metrics data for each node in a cluster.
Configuring automatic updates of OpsCenter definition files
OpsCenter uses definition files to enable support for different versions of DataStax Enterprise, DataStax Community, and Cassandra without the need to upgrade the currently installed version of OpsCenter itself.
Automatic failover overview
Automatic failover from the primary DataStax OpsCenter instance to the backup OpsCenter instance provides high availability without any manual intervention or downtime.
Configuring named route linking
Enable route URL deep linking within the UI, which allows URL navigating to locations within the OpsCenter UI web application.
Configuration files
Configure capabilities by manually modifying the opscenterd.conf, cluster_name.conf, and address.yaml configuration files.
Customize scripts for starting and stopping DataStax Enterprise and Cassandra
OpsCenter allows starting and stopping the DataStax Enterprise/Cassandra process on each node in a visual manner. Customize the startup or shutdown of a node using the provided example scripts.
Example scenarios
Example scenarios of OpsCenter deployments include configuring for multiple regions, IP forwarding, or very large clusters.
