dse.yaml configuration file

Options for the DSE Authenticator to authenticate connections. Authenticators other than DSE Authenticator are not supported.

Default: false. Enables user authentication. When false, the DSE Authenticator allows all connections.

Sets the first scheme to validate a user against when the driver does not request a specific scheme.

List of schemes that are also checked if validation against the first scheme fails and no scheme was specified by the driver. Same scheme names as default_scheme.

Only enable (true) when using multiple schemes for authentication. Prevents unintentional role assignment that might occur if user or group names overlap in the authentication service. When true every role requires permissions to a scheme in order to be assigned, see Binding a role to an authentication scheme.

Controls whether DIGEST.adoc5 authentication is also allowed with Kerberos. The DIGEST.adoc5 mechanism is not directly associated with an authentication scheme, but is used by Kerberos to pass credentials between nodes and jobs. In analytics clusters, set to true when using with Spark jobs.

Controls how the DseAuthenticator responds to plain text authentication requests over unencrypted client connections. Set to one of the following values:

For temporary use during authentication setup in an already established environment. Allows access to the database using the anonymous role, which has all permissions except AUTHORIZE.

Options for the DSE Role Manager. To enable role manager, set authorization_options enabled to true and role_manager in cassandra.yaml to com.datastax.bdp.cassandra.auth.DseRoleManager, see Managing roles. When scheme_permissions is enabled, all roles must have permission to execute on the authentication scheme. See Binding a role to an authentication scheme.

Set to one of the following values:

Set to true, to enable logging of DSE role creation and modification events in the dse_security.role_stats system table. All nodes must have the stats option enabled, and must be restarted for the functionality to take effect.

SELECT * FROM dse_security.role_stats;

 role  | created                         | password_changed
-------+---------------------------------+---------------------------------

Configure security for a DataStax Enterprise cluster using Kerberos. See Kerberos guidelines.

The keytab file must contain the credentials for both of the fully resolved principal names, which replace _HOST with the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the host in the service_principal and http_principal settings. The UNIX user running DSE must also have read permissions on the keytab.

The service_principal that the DataStax Enterprise process runs under must use the form dse_user/_HOST@REALM.

The http_principal is used by the Tomcat application container to run DSE Search. The Tomcat web server uses GSS-API mechanism (SPNEGO) to negotiate the GSSAPI security mechanism (Kerberos). Set REALM to the name of your Kerberos realm. In the Kerberos principal, REALM must be uppercase.

The password to access the truststore.

Milliseconds to locally cache the encryption keys that are read from the KMIP hosts. The longer the encryption keys are cached, the fewer requests are made to the KMIP key server, but the longer it takes for changes, like revocation, to propagate to the DataStax Enterprise node. DataStax Enterprise uses concurrent encryption, so multiple threads fetch the secret key from the KMIP key server at the same time. Default: 300000. DataStax recommends using the default value.

Socket timeout in milliseconds. Default: 1000.

protocol

When not specified, JVM default is used. Examples:

Specify settings to tune encryption of search indexes.

Specify whether to allocate shared DSE Search decryption cache off JVM heap. Default: true

Sets the maximum size of shared DSE Search decryption cache, in megabytes (MB). Default: 256

To use DSE In-Memory, choose one of these options to specify how much system memory to use for all in-memory tables.

Node health options are always enabled for all nodes. Node health is a score-based representation of how fit a node is to handle search queries.

Default: 60000

Default: 10800 (3 hours). The amount of continuous uptime required for the node’s uptime score to advance the node health score from 0 to 1 (full health), assuming there are no recent dropped mutations. The health score is a composite score based on dropped mutations and uptime.

Default: 30. The historic time window over which the rate of dropped mutations affect the node health score.

Default: true. Enable replication selection for distributed DSE Search queries to consider node health when multiple candidates exist for a particular token range. Health-based routing enables a trade-off between index consistency and query throughput. When the primary concern is performance, do not enable health-based routing.

Enables (true) or disables (false) log entries related to lease holders. Most of the time you do not want to enable logging. Default: false

Defines the time, in milliseconds, to persist the log of lease holder changes. Logging of lease holder changes is always on, and has a very low overhead. Default: 604800

To ensure that records with TTLs are purged from search indexes when they expire, the search indexes are periodically checked for expired documents. The ttl_index_rebuild_options settings control the schedulers in charge of querying for and removing expired records, and the execution of the checks.

Schedules how often to check for expired data in seconds. Default: 300

Speeds startup time by delaying the first TTL checks in seconds. Default: 20

Sets the maximum number of documents to check and delete per batch by the TTL rebuild thread. Default: 4096

Options to specify the paging behavior.

The maximum time in milliseconds to wait for each row to be read from the database during CQL Solr queries. Default: 10000 (10 seconds).

Default: 10. You can configure the maximum resource file size or disable resource upload Sets the maximum DSE Search resource upload size limit in megabytes (MB). Set to 0 to disable resource uploading.

For inter-node communication between DSE Search nodes.

Default: 60000. The client request timeout is the maximum cumulative time (in milliseconds) that a distributed search request waits idly for shard responses. Defines timeout behavior during distributed queries.

Configures the maximum number of concurrent asynchronous indexing threads per DSE Search index. Default: number_of_available_CPU_cores.

Allows back pressure system to adapt max auto soft commit time (defined per search index config) to the actual load. Setting is respected only for NRT (near real time) cores. When DSE search cores have real-time (RT) live indexing, adaptive commits are disabled regardless of this property value. See live indexing with RT.

The total number of queued asynchronous indexing requests per search core. When this number is exceeded, back pressure prevents excessive resource consumption by throttling new incoming requests. DataStax recommends using a back_pressure_threshold_per_core value of 1000 * max_solr_concurrency_per_core.

The maximum time, in minutes, to wait for the flushing of asynchronous index updates, which occurs at DSE Search commit time or at flush time. Expert level knowledge is required to change this value. Always set the value reasonably high to ensure flushing completes successfully to fully sync DSE Search indexes with the database data. If the configured value is exceeded, index updates are only partially committed, and the commit log is not truncated to ensure data durability.

The maximum time, in minutes, to wait for each DSE Search index to load on startup or create/reload operations, expressed. This advanced option should be changed only if exceptions happen during core loading.

DSE Search activates the configured disk failure policy if IOExceptions occur during index update operations.

The directory to store index data. For example:

The Apache Lucene® field cache is deprecated. Instead, for fields that are sorted, faceted, or grouped by, set docValues="true" on the field in the schema.xml file. Then reload the core and reindex. The default value is false. To override false, set useFieldCache=true in the request.

Number of background threads used by the performance service under normal conditions. Default: 4

Maximum number of background threads used by the performance service. Limited to the value of concurrent_writes in the cassandra.yaml file. Default: The number of cassandra.concurrent_writes.

The number of queued tasks in the backlog when the number of performance_max_threads are busy. Default: 32000

DSE File System (DSEFS) options determine whether DSEFS should be enabled on this node.

Enable or disable DSEFS. This parameter takes one of the following values:

The keyspace where the DSEFS metadata is stored. You can optionally configure multiple DSEFS file systems within a single datacenter by specifying different keyspace names for each cluster. Default: dsefs

The local directory for storing the local node metadata, including the node identifier. The volume of data stored in this directory is nominal and does not require configuration for throughput, latency, or capacity. This directory must not be shared by DSEFS nodes.

The public port on which DSEFS listens for clients. DataStax recommends that all nodes in the cluster have the same value. Firewalls must open this port to trusted clients. The service on this port is bound to the RPC address. Default: 5598

The private port for DSEFS inter-node communication. Do not open this port to firewalls; this private port must be not visible from outside of the cluster. Default: 5599

One or more data locations where the DSEFS data is stored.

Mandatory attribute to identify the set of directories. DataStax recommends segregating these data directories on physical devices different than the devices that are used for DataStax Enterprise. Using multiple directories on JBOD improves performance and capacity. Default: /var/lib/dsefs/data

The weighting factor for this location specifies how much data to place in this directory, relative to other directories in the cluster. This soft constraint determines how DSEFS distributes the data. For example, a directory with a value of 3.0 receives about three times more data than a directory with a value of 1.0. Default: 1.0

The reserved space, in bytes, to not use for storing file data blocks. You can use a unit of measure suffix to specify other size units. For example: terabyte (1 TB), gigabyte (10 GB), and megabyte (5000 MB). Default: 5368709120

The time, in milliseconds, to wait before closing an idle connection. Closing idle connections is disabled by default. Default: 0 (disabled)

Wait time, in milliseconds, before closing idle internode connection. The internode connections are primarily used to exchange data during replication. Do not set lower than the default value for heavily utilized DSEFS clusters.

Maximum number of connections to a given host per single CPU core. DSEFS keeps a connection pool for each CPU core.

Wait time, in milliseconds, before retrying a transaction that was ended due to a conflict. Default: 200

The number of times to retry a transaction before giving up. Default: 40

Wait time, in milliseconds, before retrying a failed transaction payload execution. Default: 1000

To get the maximum information from data auditing, turn on data auditing on every node. See Enabling data auditing in DataStax Enterprise and Configuring audit logging.

Default: false

Default: SLF4JAuditWriterfalse

The default is to include all categories. Specify either included or excluded categories.

The default is to include all keyspaces. Specify either included or excluded keyspaces. Specifying both is an error.

The amount of time, in hours, that audit events are retained by supporting loggers. Only CassandraAuditWriter supports retention time. Values of 0 or less retain events forever. Default: 0

Configuration options for CassandraAuditWriter.

cassandra_audit_writer_options:
    mode: sync

Sets the mode the writer runs in. Default: sync

Available only when mode: async.

Available only when mode: async.

Available only when mode: async.

The size of the queue feeding the asynchronous audit log writer threads. When there are more events being produced than the writers can write out, the queue fills up, and newer queries are blocked until there is space on the queue. If a value of 0 is used, the queue size is unbounded, which can lead to resource exhaustion under heavy query load. Default: 10000

The consistency level that is used to write audit events. Default: QUORUM

The directory to store the log file that reports dropped events. Default: /var/log/cassandra/dropped_audit_events.log

The unnamed tiers in this section define a storage tier with the paths and file paths that define the priority order.

Local configuration options overwrite the tiered storage settings for the table schema in the local dse.yaml file. See Testing DSE Tiered Storage configurations.

The section of file paths that define the data directories for this tier of the disk configuration. Typically list the fastest storage media first. These paths are used only to store data that is configured to use tiered storage. These paths are independent of any settings in the cassandra.yaml file.

Specific file paths to define the data directories for this tier of the disk configuration.

Options to enable DSE Advanced Replication.

Set enabled:true on an edge node to collect data in the replication log. Default: false.

Enable or disable encryption of driver passwords. When enabled, the stored driver password is expected to be encrypted with the system key. After you create the system key, you must copy the same system key to every node in the cluster.

Timeout for non-query search requests like core creation and distributed deletes. Default: 60

In DSE Multi-Instance /etc/dse-nodeId/dse.yaml files, the server_id option is generated to uniquely identify the physical server on which multiple instances are running. The server_id default value is the media access control address (MAC address) of the physical server. You can change server_id when the MAC address is not unique, such as a virtualized server where the host’s physical MAC is cloned.

These graph options are system-level configuration options and options that are shared between graph instances.

The number of stale rows per second to clean from each graph’s adjacency cache. Default: 1024.

The maximum entry size in each graph’s adjacency cache. When set to zero, the default is calculated based on the cache size and the number of CPUs. Entries that exceed this size are quietly dropped by the cache without producing an explicit error or log message. Default: 0.

The amount of RAM to allocate to each graph’s adjacency (edge and property) cache. Default: 128.

Maximum time to wait for an analytic (Spark) traversal to evaluate. Default: 10080 (7 days).

Enables or disables Gremlin Server. Default: true.

The number of stale entries per second to clean from the adjacency cache. Default: 1024.

The maximum entry size in the index adjacency cache. When set to zero, the default is based on the cache size and the number of CPUs. Value: integer. + # default is calculated based on the cache size and the number of CPUs. Entries that exceed this size are quietly dropped by the cache without producing an explicit error or log message. Default: 0.

The amount of ram to allocate to the index cache. Default: 128.

The maximum number of CQL queries that can be queued as a result of Gremlin requests. Incoming queries are rejected if the queue size exceeds this setting. Default: 10000.

The maximum number of threads to use for queries to the database. When this option is not set, the default is:

Maximum time to wait for a real-time traversal to evaluate. Default: 30 seconds.

Maximum time to wait for cassandra to agree on schema versions before timing out. Default: 10000

Controls the way that the schemas are handled. Valid values:

Maximum time to wait for a system-based request to execute. Default: 180 (3 minutes).

The number of samples to keep when aggregating log events. Only a small subset of graph’s log events use this system. Modifying this setting is rarely necessary or helpful. Default: 100000.

The maximum number of parameters that can be passed on a graph query request for TinkerPop drivers and drivers using Cassandra native protocol. Passing very large numbers of parameters on requests is an anti-pattern, because the script evaluation time increases proportionally. DataStax recommends reducing the number of parameters to speed up script compilation times. Before you increase this value, consider alternate methods for parameterizing scripts, like passing a single map. If the graph query request requires many arguments, pass a list. Default: 256

DSE Graph configuration options for standard vertex ID assignment and partitioning strategies.

The graph standard vertex ID allocator operates on blocks of contiguous IDs. Each block is allocated using a database lightweight transaction that requires coordination latency. To hide the cost of allocating a standard ID block, the allocator begins asynchronously buffering a replacement block whenever a current block is nearly empty. This block_renew parameter defines "nearly empty" as a floating point number between 0 and 1. The value is how much of a standard ID block can be used before graph starts asynchronously allocating its replacement. This setting has no effect on custom IDs. Value must be between 0 and 1. Default: 0.8.

For graphs using standard vertex IDs, if a transaction creates multiple vertices, the allocator attempts to assign vertex IDs that colocate vertices on the same database replicas. If an especially large vertex cohort is created, the allocator chunks the vertex creation and assigns a random target location to avoid load hotspotting. This setting controls the vertex chunk size and has no effect on custom IDs. Default: 28.

Must be set to DC_LOCAL or GLOBAL.

Applies only when consistency_mode is DC_LOCAL. Set to an arbitrary value between 1 and 127, inclusive. This setting has no effect on custom IDs.

An integer between 1 and 2^24 (both inclusive) that affects maximum ID capacity and the maximum storage space used by ID allocations. Lower values reduce the storage space consumed and the lightweight transaction overhead imposed at startup. Lower values also reduce the total number of IDs that can be allocated over the life of a graph, because this parameter is proportional to the allocatable ID space. However, the proportion coefficient is Long.MAX_VALUE (2^63-1), so ID headroom should be sufficient, practically speaking, even if this is set to 1. This setting has no effect on custom IDs. Default: 20.

The graph standard vertex ID allocator claims uniformly-sized blocks of contiguous IDs using lightweight transactions on the database. This setting controls the size of each block. This setting has no effect on custom IDs. Default: 512.

Options that contain all registered state listeners identified by their name.

Replace listener_name with a string that identifies the listener. The string must begin with a lower case letter and can be composed of lowercase letters, numbers, and underscores.

The names of state types that are ignored. All state types but those given are listened to. Default: (empty).

The interval in which the state values are logged. Default: 3600

The type of the state listener. Must be one of the following values: slf4j. Default: slf4j.

The names of state types that should be listened. Only those state types are listened to and all others ignored. Default: (empty).

Options to configure DSE Graph internal query and lightweight messaging system.

Graph messages must be acknowledged within this interval, or else the message is assumed dropped/failed. Graph retries the message or fails the responsible request if the retry limit is exceeded. Default: 5000

Options to configure all registered event observers identified by their name.

Replace observer_name with a string that identifies the event observers. This string is the names of event types that are ignored. All event types but those given are observed. The string must begin with a lower case letter and can be composed of lowercase letters, numbers, and underscores. Value: YAML-formatted list of strings.

The names of event types that are ignored. All event types but those given are observed. Value: YAML-formatted list of strings. Default: (empty).

The names of the graphs for which events are observed. Value: YAML-formatted list of strings. Default: (empty).

The names of the graphs for which slow transactions are monitored. Default: (empty).

Threshold at which slow queries get reported. Default: 300000

The type of the event observer. Must be one of the following values: slf4j, slow_request. Default: slf4j.

The names of event types that should be observed. Only those event types are observed and all others ignored. Value: YAML-formatted list of strings. Default: (empty).

Options for shared data in DSE Graph.

The interval between refreshes in which the graph schema is reread from the database tables. Note that schema is also immediately updated when schema changes occur, so this parameter is a fail safe to poll for schema changes periodically. Default: 60000

The top-level configurations in Gremlin Server.

The port value identifies the available communications port for Gremlin Server. Default: 8182

The number of worker threads that handle requests and responses on the Gremlin Server channel, including routing requests to the right server operations, handling scheduled jobs on the server, and writing serialized responses back to the client. Default: 2

The number of Gremlin threads available to execute actual scripts in a ScriptEngine. This pool represents the workers available to handle blocking operations in Gremlin Server. Default: 8
