Storing collection data on a different cluster

If you do not want OpsCenter to store data in an OpsCenter keyspace on the cluster being managed, you can store the data on a separate cluster.

Procedure

Add a section to the cluster configuration file.
  • /etc/opscenter/clusters/<MyCluster>.conf
  • <install_location>/conf/clusters/<MyCluster>.conf

[storage_cassandra]
seed_hosts = host1, host2
api_port = 9160
Option Description
seed_hosts A comma-delimited list of at least one of the nodes in the cluster where you want to store collection data.
api_port The Thrift port used by that cluster.
username The appropriate username (if using Thrift security).
password The appropriate password (if using Thrift security).
keyspace The name of the keyspace to store the collection data in. (OpsCenter by default.)
