The number of times to auto retry sending a backup to a destination if there are failures. Default: 3.

The amount of time in minutes to wait between retry attempts. Default: 60.

Set the path to a temporary directory used by the DataStax agents to hold files for backup and repair service.

This path specifies the directory where commit logs archived to by cassandra. From there the commit logs are sent to the configured destinations and the backup_storage_dir.

The number of concurrent get snapshot info requests. The default value is 1.

The S3 region region to connect to for remote backup/restore. The default value is us-west-1.

The frequency in seconds that a restore reports progress back to OpsCenter. The default value is automatically calculated based on cluster size. To optimize performance, larger clusters have a longer threshold in which restore progress is sent to the UI. Configure this property accordingly for more or less frequent updates during a restore.

See [cassandra] snapshot_threshold

The percentage of the cluster that can fail to respond before a remote destination restore action fails. Default: 50.

The number of DataStax Agents on which OpsCenter will concurrently start the restore process. The default value is 20.

How long OpsCenter will sleep between batches of starting the restore process, set in restore_init_throttle. The default value is 5 seconds.

The number of nodes in the cluster before OpsCenter will switch from running a backup immediately upon receiving a request to scheduling the backup to run after the next full minute, plus any time set in snapshot_wait. The default value is 10. If there are less than 10 nodes in the cluster, then OpsCenter will tell all nodes to take a snapshot as soon as it is requested. If there are more than 10 nodes, OpsCenter will tell all nodes to take a snapshot at the current time rounded to the next minute, plus snapshot_wait seconds.

The directory where commitlogs are copied after they are written to disk from DSE. The DataStax Agents monitor this directory and move commitlogs to the configured destinations. After all destinations receive the relevant commit logs, the logs are moved to the backup_storage_dir. The default location is /var/lib/datastax-agent/commitlogs/. Example: backup_staging_dir: /var/lib/datastax-agent/commitlogs/

The directory where On Server commitlog backups are stored after being copied to all configured destinations. The directory will be cleaned based on a configured retention policy for an On Server location. The directory should be large enough to hold commitlogs for the length of the retention policy. The default location is /var/lib/datastax-agent/backups/. Example: backup_storage_dir: /var/lib/datastax-agent/backups/

The maximum amount of time in seconds to verify a destination can be written to and read from. Default: 60. Example: destination_pretest_timeout: 60

The maximum number of attempts to upload a file or create a remote destination. Default: 3. Example: max_file_transfer_attempts: 30

The AWS region to use for remote backup transfers. Default: us-west-1. Example: remote_backup_region: us-west-1

The number of attempts to make when file download fails during a restore. Default: 3. Example: remote_backup_retries: 3

The timeout in milliseconds for the connection used to push backups to remote destinations. Default: 1000. Example: remote_backup_timeout: 1000

Initial delay in milliseconds to wait before checking if a file was successfully uploaded during a backup operation. This configuration option works in conjunction with the remote_verify_max option to distinguish between broken versus tardy backups when cleaning up SSTables. The remote_verify_initial_delay value doubles each time a file transfer validation failure occurs until the value exceeds the remote_verify_max value. Default: 1000 (1 second). Example: remote_verify_initial_delay: 1000

The maximum time period to wait after a file upload completed but is still unreadable from the remote destination. When this delay is exceeded, the transfer is considered failed. This configuration option works in conjunction with the remote_verify_initial_delay option to distinguish between broken versus tardy backups when cleaning up SSTables. Default: 30000 (30 seconds). Example: remote_verify_max: 300000

When set to true, a failed file transfer from the remote destination will not halt the restore process. process. A future restore attempt uses any successfully transferred files. Default: false. Example: restore_on_transfer_failure: false

The frequency in seconds with which status updates are sent to opscenterd during Restore operations in the Backup Service. Default: 60. Example: restore_req_update_period: 60

The maximum heap size used by the sstableloader during restore operations. Default: 256M. Example: sstableloader_max_heap_size: 256M

The directory used to temporarily stage files when restoring. The default location is /var/lib/datastax-agent/tmp. Example: tmp_dir: /var/lib/datastax-agent/tmp/
