## Reloading The Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
A command, _reload config_, is available that will cause MariaDB MaxScale to
|
||||
reload the maxscale.cnf configuration file.
|
||||
reload the maxscale.cnf configuration file. Refer to the [Configuration Guide](../Getting-Started/Configuration-Guide.md)
|

for a list of parameters that can be changed with it.

## Shutting Down MariaDB MaxScale
|
||||
|
||||
The MariaDB MaxScale server may be shutdown using the _shutdown maxscale_
|
||||
command.
|
||||
|
||||
# Runtime Configuration Changes
|
||||
|
||||
Starting with the 2.1 version of MaxScale, you can modify the runtime
|
||||
configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
## Servers
|
||||
|
||||
### Creating a New Server
|
||||
|
||||
In order to add new servers into MaxScale, they must first be created. They can
|
||||
be created with the `create server` command. Any runtime configuration changes
|
||||
to servers are persisted meaning that they will still be in effect even after a
|
||||
restart.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
'server' - Create a new server
|
||||
|
||||
Usage: create server NAME HOST [PORT] [PROTOCOL] [AUTHENTICATOR] [OPTIONS]
|
||||
|
||||
Create a new server from the following parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
NAME Server name
|
||||
HOST Server host address
|
||||
PORT Server port (default 3306)
|
||||
PROTOCOL Server protocol (default MySQLBackend)
|
||||
AUTHENTICATOR Authenticator module name (default MySQLAuth)
|
||||
OPTIONS Options for the authenticator module
|
||||
|
||||
The first three parameters are required, the others are optional.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Adding Servers to Services and Monitors
|
||||
|
||||
To add a server to a service or a monitor, use the `add server` command. Any
|
||||
changes to the servers of a service or a monitor are persisted meaning that they
|
||||
will still be in effect even after a restart.
|
||||
|
||||
Servers added to services will only be taken into use by new sessions. Old
|
||||
sessions will only use the servers that were a part of the service when they
|
||||
were created.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
'server' - Add a new server to a service
|
||||
|
||||
Usage: add server SERVER TARGET...
|
||||
|
||||
The TARGET must be a list of service and monitor names
|
||||
e.g. add server my-db my-service 'Cluster Monitor'
|
||||
|
||||
A server can be assigned to a maximum of 11 objects in one command
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Removing Servers from Services and Monitors
|
||||
|
||||
To remove servers from a service or a monitor, use the `remove server`
|
||||
command. The same rules about server usage for services that apply to `add
|
||||
server` also apply to `remove server`. The servers will only be removed from new
|
||||
sessions created after the command is executed.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
'server' - Remove a server from a service or a monitor
|
||||
|
||||
Usage: remove server SERVER TARGET...
|
||||
|
||||
The TARGET must be a list of service and monitor names
|
||||
e.g. remove server my-db my-service 'Cluster Monitor'
|
||||
|
||||
A server can be removed from a maximum of 11 objects in one command
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Altering Servers
|
||||
|
||||
You can alter server parameters with the `alter server` command. Any changes to
|
||||
the address or port of the server will take effect for new connections
|
||||
only. Changes to other parameters will take effect immediately.
|
||||
|
||||
Please note that in order for SSL to be enabled for a created server, all of the
|
||||
required SSL parameters (`ssl`, `ssl_key`, `ssl_cert` and `ssl_ca_cert`) must be
|
||||
given in the same command.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Usage: alter server NAME KEY=VALUE ...
|
||||
|
||||
This will alter an existing parameter of a server. The accepted values for KEY are:
|
||||
|
||||
address Server address
|
||||
port Server port
|
||||
monuser Monitor user for this server
|
||||
monpw Monitor password for this server
|
||||
ssl Enable SSL, value must be 'required'
|
||||
ssl_key Path to SSL private key
|
||||
ssl_cert Path to SSL certificate
|
||||
ssl_ca_cert Path to SSL CA certificate
|
||||
ssl_version SSL version
|
||||
ssl_cert_verify_depth Certificate verification depth
|
||||
|
||||
A maximum of 11 parameters can be changed at one time.
|
||||
To configure SSL for a newly created server, the 'ssl', 'ssl_cert',
|
||||
'ssl_key' and 'ssl_ca_cert' parameters must be given at the same time.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Destroying Servers
|
||||
|
||||
You can destroy created servers with the `destroy server` command. Only servers
|
||||
created with the `create server` command should be destroyed. A server can only
|
||||
be destroyed once it has been removed from all services and monitors.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
'server' - Destroy a server
|
||||
|
||||
Usage: destroy server NAME
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Listeners
|
||||
|
||||
### Creating New Listeners
|
||||
|
||||
To create a new listener for a service, use the `create listener` command. This
|
||||
will create and start a new listener for a service which will immediately start
|
||||
listening for new connections on the specified port.
|
||||
|
||||
Please note that in order for SSL to be enabled for a created listeners, all of
|
||||
the required SSL parameters (`ssl`, `ssl_key`, `ssl_cert` and `ssl_ca_cert`)
|
||||
must be given. All the `create listener` parameters do not need to be defined in
|
||||
order for SSL to be enabled. The _default_ parameter can be used to signal that
|
||||
MaxScale should use a default value for the parameter in question.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
'listener' - Create a new listener for a service
|
||||
|
||||
Usage: create listener SERVICE NAME [HOST] [PORT] [PROTOCOL] [AUTHENTICATOR] [OPTIONS]
|
||||
[SSL_KEY] [SSL_CERT] [SSL_CA] [SSL_VERSION] [SSL_VERIFY_DEPTH]
|
||||
|
||||
Create a new server from the following parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
SERVICE Service where this listener is added
|
||||
NAME Listener name
|
||||
HOST Listener host address (default 0.0.0.0)
|
||||
PORT Listener port (default 3306)
|
||||
PROTOCOL Listener protocol (default MySQLClient)
|
||||
AUTHENTICATOR Authenticator module name (default MySQLAuth)
|
||||
OPTIONS Options for the authenticator module
|
||||
SSL_KEY Path to SSL private key
|
||||
SSL_CERT Path to SSL certificate
|
||||
SSL_CA Path to CA certificate
|
||||
SSL_VERSION SSL version (default MAX)
|
||||
SSL_VERIFY_DEPTH Certificate verification depth
|
||||
|
||||
The first two parameters are required, the others are optional.
|
||||
Any of the optional parameters can also have the value 'default'
|
||||
which will be replaced with the default value.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Destroying Listeners
|
||||
|
||||
You can destroy created listeners with the `destroy listener` command. This will
|
||||
remove the persisted configuration and it will not be created on the next
|
||||
startup. The listener is stopped but it will remain a part of the runtime
|
||||
configuration until the next restart.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
'listener' - Destroy a listener
|
||||
|
||||
Usage: destroy listener SERVICE NAME
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Monitors
|
||||
|
||||
### Creating New Monitors
|
||||
|
||||
The `create monitor` command creates a new monitor that is initially
|
||||
stopped. Configure the monitor with the `alter monitor` command and then start
|
||||
it with the `restart monitor` command. The _user_ and _password_ parameters of
|
||||
the monitor must be defined before the monitor is started.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
'monitor' - Create a new monitor
|
||||
|
||||
Usage: create monitor NAME MODULE
|
||||
NAME Monitor name
|
||||
MODULE Monitor module
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Altering Monitors
|
||||
|
||||
To alter a monitor, use the `alter monitor` command. Module specific parameters
|
||||
can also be altered.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
'monitor' - Alter monitor parameters
|
||||
|
||||
Usage: alter monitor NAME KEY=VALUE ...
|
||||
|
||||
This will alter an existing parameter of a monitor. To remove parameters,
|
||||
pass an empty value for a key e.g. 'maxadmin alter monitor my-monitor my-key='
|
||||
A maximum of 11 key-value pairs can be changed at one time
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Destroying Monitors
|
||||
|
||||
To destroy a monitor, use the `destroy monitor` command. All servers need to be
|
||||
removed from the monitor before it can be destroyed. Only created monitors
|
||||
should be destroyed and they will remain a part of the runtime configuration
|
||||
until the next restart.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
'monitor' - Destroy a monitor
|
||||
|
||||
Usage: destroy monitor NAME
|
||||
```
