CONFIGURATION |

AIS configuration comprises:
Name | Scope | Comment |
---|---|---|
ClusterConfig | Global | Named sections containing name-value knobs |
LocalConfig | Local | Allows to override global defaults on a per-node basis |
Cluster-wide (global) configuration is protected, namely: checksummed, versioned, and safely replicated. In effect, global config defines cluster-wide defaults inherited by each node joining the cluster.
Local config includes:
- node's own hostnames (or IP addresses) and mountpaths (data drives);
- optionally, names-and-values that were changed for this specific node. For each node in the cluster, the corresponding capability (dubbed config-override) boils down to:
- inheriting cluster configuration, and optionally
- optionally, locally overriding assorted inherited defaults (see usage examples below).
Majority of the configuration knobs can be changed at runtime (and at any time). A few read-only variables are explicitly marked in the source; any attempt to modify those at runtime will return "read-only" error message.
For the most part, commands to view and update (CLI, cluster, node) configuration can be found here.
The same document also contains a brief theory of operation, command descriptions, numerous usage examples and more.
Important: as an input, CLI accepts both plain text and JSON-formatted values. For the latter, make sure to embed the (JSON value) argument into single quotes, e.g.:
$ ais config cluster checksum.type='{"type":"md5"}'
However, plain-text updating is more common, e.g.:
$ ais config cluster log.level 4
$ ais config cluster log.modules <TAB-TAB>
transport memsys fs ec ios backend mirror downloader s3
ais cluster reb stats xs space dsort etl none
$ ais config cluster log.modules space,s3
To show the current cluster config in plain text and JSON:
$ ais config cluster log
PROPERTY VALUE
log.level 4 (modules: space,s3)
log.max_size 4MiB
log.max_total 128MiB
log.flush_time 40s
log.stats_time 1m
log.to_stderr false
And the same in JSON:
$ ais config cluster log --json
"log": {
"level": "540676",
"max_size": "4MiB",
"max_total": "128MiB",
"flush_time": "40s",
"stats_time": "1m",
"to_stderr": false
}
Note: some config values are read-only or otherwise protected and can be only listed, e.g.:
$ ais config cluster backend.conf --json
"backend": {"aws":{},"azure":{},"gcp":{}}

Configuring AIS cluster for production requires a careful consideration. First and foremost, there are assorted performance related recommendations.
Optimal performance settings will always depend on your (hardware, network) environment. Speaking of networking, AIS supports 3 (three) logical networks and will, therefore, benefit, performance-wise, if provisioned with up to 3 isolated physical networks or VLANs. The logical networks are:
- user (aka public)
- intra-cluster control
- intra-cluster data
with the corresponding JSON names, respectively:
hostname
hostname_intra_control
hostname_intra_data
$ ais config node <TAB-TAB>

## choose "local" to show the (selected) target's disks and network
$ ais config node t[fbarswQP] local --json

"confdir": "/etc/ais",
"log_dir": "/var/log/ais",
"host_net": {
"hostname": "10.51.156.130",
"hostname_intra_control": "ais-target-5.nvmetal.net",
"hostname_intra_data": "ais-target-5.nvmetal.net",

}
}
All aistore nodes - both ais targets and ais gateways - can be deployed as multi-homed servers. But of course, the capability is mostly important and relevant for the targets that may be required (and expected) to move a lot of traffic, as fast as possible.
Building up on the previous section's example, here's how it may look:
$ ais config node t[fbarswQP] local host_net --json
{
"host_net": {
"hostname": "10.51.156.130, 10.51.156.131, 10.51.156.132",
"hostname_intra_control": "ais-target-5.nvmetal.net",
"hostname_intra_data": "ais-target-5.nvmetal.net",
"port": "51081",
"port_intra_control": "51082",
"port_intra_data": "51083"
},
}
Note: additional NICs can be added (or removed) transparently for users, i.e. without requiring (or causing) any other changes.
The example above may serve as a simple illustration whereby t[fbarswQP]
becomes a multi-homed device equally utilizing all 3 (three) IPv4 interfaces
- For Kubernetes deployment, please refer to a separate ais-k8s repository that also contains AIS/K8s Operator and its configuration-defining resources.
- To configure an optional AIStore authentication server, run
$ AIS_AUTHN_ENABLED=true make deploy
. For information on AuthN server, please see AuthN documentation. - AIS CLI is an easy-to-use convenient command-line management/monitoring tool. To get started with CLI, run
make cli
(that generatesais
executable) and follow the prompts.
The first thing to keep in mind is that there are 3 (three) separate, and separately maintained, pieces:
- Cluster configuration that comprises global defaults
- Node (local) configuration
- Node's local overrides of global defaults
Specifically:
To show and/or change global config, simply type one of:
# 1. show cluster config
$ ais show cluster config
# 2. show cluster config in JSON format
$ ais show cluster config --json
# 3. show cluster-wide defaults for all variables prefixed with "time"
$ ais show config cluster time
# or, same:
$ ais show cluster config time
PROPERTY VALUE
timeout.cplane_operation 2s
timeout.max_keepalive 4s
timeout.max_host_busy 20s
timeout.startup_time 1m
timeout.send_file_time 5m
timeout.transport_idle_term 4s
# 4. for all nodes in the cluster set startup timeout to 2 minutes
$ ais config cluster timeout.startup_time=2m
config successfully updated
Typically, when we deploy a new AIS cluster, we use configuration template that contains all the defaults - see, for example, JSON template. Configuration sections in this template, and the knobs within those sections, must be self-explanatory, and the majority of those, except maybe just a few, have pre-assigned default values.
As stated above, each node in the cluster inherits global configuration with the capability to override the latter locally.
There are also node-specific settings, such as:
- log directories
- network configuration, including node's hostname(s) or IP addresses
- node's mountpaths
Since AIS supports n-way mirroring and erasure coding, we typically recommend not using LVMs and hardware RAIDs.

The picture illustrates one section of the configuration template that, in part, includes listening port:
Further, test_fspaths
section (see below) corresponds to a single local filesystem being partitioned between both local and Cloud buckets. In other words, the test_fspaths
configuration option is intended strictly for development.
In production, we use an alternative configuration called fspaths
: the section of the config that includes a number of local directories, whereby each directory is based on a different local filesystem.
For fspath
and mountpath
terminology and details, please see section Managing Mountpaths in this document.
An example of 12 fspaths (and 12 local filesystems) follows below:
$ ais config node <TAB-TAB>
p[ctfooJtb] p[qGfooQSf] p[KffoosQR] p[ckfooUEX] p[DlPmfooU] t[MgHfooNG] t[ufooIDPc] t[tFUfooCO] t[wSJfoonU] t[WofooQEW]

First, some basic facts:
- AIS cluster is a collection of nodes - members of the cluster.
- A node can be an AIS proxy (aka gateway) or an AIS target.
- In either case, HTTP request to read (get) or write (set) specific node's configuration will have
/v1/daemon
in its URL path. - The capability to carry out cluster-wide configuration updates is also supported. The corresponding HTTP URL will have
/v1/cluster
in its path.
Both
daemon
andcluster
are the two RESTful resource abstractions supported by the API. Please see AIS API for naming conventions, RESTful resources, as well as API reference and details.
- To get the node's up-to-date configuration, execute:
$ ais show config <daemon-ID>
This will display all configuration sections and all the named knobs - i.e., configuration variables and their current values.
Most configuration options can be updated either on an individual (target or proxy) daemon, or the entire cluster. Some configurations are "overridable" and can be configured on a per-daemon basis. Some of these are shown in the table below.
For examples and alternative ways to format configuration-updating requests, please see the examples below.
Following is a table-summary that contains a subset of all settable knobs:
NOTE (May 2022): this table is somewhat outdated and must be revisited.
Option name | Overridable | Default value | Description |
---|---|---|---|
ec.data_slices |
No | 2 |
Represents the number of fragments an object is broken into (in the range [2, 100]) |
ec.disk_only |
No | false |
If true, EC uses local drives for all operations. If false, EC automatically chooses between memory and local drives depending on the current memory load |
ec.enabled |
No | false |
Enables or disables data protection |
ec.objsize_limit |
No | 262144 |
Indicated the minimum size of an object in bytes that is erasure encoded. Smaller objects are replicated |
ec.parity_slices |
No | 2 |
Represents the number of redundant fragments to provide protection from failures (in the range [2, 32]) |
ec.compression |
No | "never" |
LZ4 compression parameters used when EC sends its fragments and replicas over network. Values: "never" - disables, "always" - compress all data, or a set of rules for LZ4, e.g "ratio=1.2" means enable compression from the start but disable when average compression ratio drops below 1.2 to save CPU resources |
mirror.burst_buffer |
No | 512 |
the maximum queue size for the (pending) objects to be mirrored. When exceeded, target logs a warning. |
mirror.copies |
No | 1 |
the number of local copies of an object |
mirror.enabled |
No | false |
If true, for every object PUT a target creates object replica on another mountpath. Later, on object GET request, loadbalancer chooses a mountpath with lowest disk utilization and reads the object from it |
rebalance.dest_retry_time |
No | 2m |
If a target does not respond within this interval while rebalance is running the target is excluded from rebalance process |
rebalance.enabled |
No | true |
Enables and disables automatic rebalance after a target receives the updated cluster map. If the (automated rebalancing) option is disabled, you can still use the REST API (PUT {"action": "start", "value": {"kind": "rebalance"}} v1/cluster ) to initiate cluster-wide rebalancing |
rebalance.multiplier |
No | 4 |
A tunable that can be adjusted to optimize cluster rebalancing time (advanced usage only) |
transport.quiescent |
No | 20s |
Rebalance moves to the next stage or starts the next batch of objects when no objects are received during this time interval |
versioning.enabled |
No | true |
Enables and disables versioning. For the supported 3rd party backends, versioning is on only when it enabled for (and supported by) the specific backend |
versioning.validate_warm_get |
No | false |
If false, a target returns a requested object immediately if it is cached. If true, a target fetches object's version(via HEAD request) from Cloud and if the received version mismatches locally cached one, the target redownloads the object and then returns it to a client |
checksum.enable_read_range |
Yes | false |
See Supported Checksums and Brief Theory of Operations |
checksum.type |
Yes | xxhash |
Checksum type. Please see Supported Checksums and Brief Theory of Operations |

disk.disk_util_high_wm |
Yes | 80 |
Operations that implement self-throttling mechanism, e.g. LRU, turn on the maximum throttle if disk utilization is higher than disk_util_high_wm |
disk.disk_util_low_wm |
Yes | 60 |
Operations that implement self-throttling mechanism, e.g. LRU, do not throttle themselves if disk utilization is below disk_util_low_wm |
disk.iostat_time_long |
Yes | 2s |
The interval that disk utilization is checked when disk utilization is below disk_util_low_wm . |
disk.iostat_time_short |
Yes | 100ms |
Used instead of iostat_time_long when disk utilization reaches disk_util_high_wm . If disk utilization is between disk_util_high_wm and disk_util_low_wm , a proportional value between iostat_time_short and iostat_time_long is used. |
distributed_sort.call_timeout |
Yes | "10m" |
a maximum time a target waits for another target to respond |
distributed_sort.compression |
Yes | "never" |
LZ4 compression parameters used when dSort sends its shards over network. Values: "never" - disables, "always" - compress all data, or a set of rules for LZ4, e.g "ratio=1.2" means enable compression from the start but disable when average compression ratio drops below 1.2 to save CPU resources |
distributed_sort.default_max_mem_usage |
Yes | "80%" |
a maximum amount of memory used by running dSort. Can be set as a percent of total memory(e.g 80% ) or as the number of bytes(e.g, 12G ) |
distributed_sort.dsorter_mem_threshold |

what to do when missing shards are detected: "ignore" - ignore and continue, "warn" - notify a user and continue, "abort" - abort dSort operation |
fshc.enabled |
Yes | true |
Enables and disables filesystem health checker (FSHC) |
log.level |

AIS command-line allows to override configuration at AIS node's startup. For example:
$ aisnode -config=/etc/ais.json -local_config=/etc/ais_local.json -role=target -config_custom="client.timeout=13s,log.level=4"
As shown above, the CLI option in-question is: confjson
.
Its value is a JSON-formatted map of string names and string values.
By default, the config provided in config_custom
will be persisted on the disk.
To make it transient either add -transient=true
flag or add additional JSON entry:
$ aisnode -config=/etc/ais.json -local_config=/etc/ais_local.json -role=target -transient=true -config_custom="client.timeout=13s, transient=true"
Another example. To override locally-configured address of the primary proxy, run:
$ aisnode -config=/etc/ais.json -local_config=/etc/ais_local.json -role=target -config_custom="proxy.primary_url=http://G"
# where G denotes the designated primary's hostname and port.
To achieve the same on temporary basis, add -transient=true
as follows:
$ aisnode -config=/etc/ais.json -local_config=/etc/ais_local.json -role=target -config_custom="proxy.primary_url=http://G"
Please see AIS command-line for other command-line options and details.
- Mountpath - is a single disk or a volume (a RAID) formatted with a local filesystem of choice, and a local directory that AIS can fully own and utilize (to store user data and system metadata). Note that any given disk (or RAID) can have (at most) one mountpath (meaning no disk sharing) and mountpath directories cannot be nested. Further:
- a mountpath can be temporarily disabled and (re)enabled;
- a mountpath can also be detached and (re)attached, thus effectively supporting growth and "shrinkage" of local capacity;
- it is safe to execute the 4 listed operations (enable, disable, attach, detach) at any point during runtime;
- in a typical deployment, the total number of mountpaths would compute as a direct product of (number of storage targets) x (number of disks in each target).
Configuration option fspaths
specifies the list of local mountpath directories. Each configured fspath
is, simply, a local directory that provides the basis for AIS mountpath
.
In regards non-sharing of disks between mountpaths: for development we make an exception, such that multiple mountpaths are actually allowed to share a disk and coexist within a single filesystem. This is done strictly for development convenience, though.
AIStore REST API makes it possible to list, add, remove, enable, and disable a fspath
(and, therefore, the corresponding local filesystem) at runtime. Filesystem's health checker (FSHC) monitors the health of all local filesystems: a filesystem that "accumulates" I/O errors will be disabled and taken out, as far as the AIStore built-in mechanism of object distribution. For further details about FSHC, please refer to FSHC readme.
To make sure that AIStore does not utilize xattrs, configure:
checksum.type
=none
versioning.enabled
=true
, andwrite_policy.md
=never
for all targets in AIStore cluster.
Or, simply update global configuration (to have those cluster-wide defaults later inherited by all newly created buckets).
This can be done via the common configuration "part" that'd be further used to deploy the cluster.
Extended attributes can be disabled on per bucket basis. To do this, turn off saving metadata to disks (CLI):
$ ais bucket props ais://mybucket write_policy.md=never
Bucket props successfully updated
"write_policy.md" set to: "never" (was: "")
Disable extended attributes only if you need fast and temporary storage. Without xattrs, a node loses its objects after the node reboots. If extended attributes are disabled globally when deploying a cluster, node IDs are not permanent and a node can change its ID after it restarts.
To switch from HTTP protocol to an encrypted HTTPS, configure net.http.use_https
=true
and modify net.http.server_crt
and net.http.server_key
values so they point to your OpenSSL certificate and key files respectively (see AIStore configuration).
See also:
Default installation enables filesystem health checker component called FSHC. FSHC can be also disabled via section "fshc" of the configuration.
When enabled, FSHC gets notified on every I/O error upon which it performs extensive checks on the corresponding local filesystem. One possible outcome of this health-checking process is that FSHC disables the faulty filesystems leaving the target with one filesystem less to distribute incoming data.
Please see FSHC readme for further details.
In addition to user-accessible public network, AIStore will optionally make use of the two other networks:
- intra-cluster control
- intra-cluster data
The way the corresponding config may look in production (e.g.) follows:
$ ais config node t[nKfooBE] local h... <TAB-TAB>
host_net.hostname host_net.port_intra_control host_net.hostname_intra_control
host_net.port host_net.port_intra_data host_net.hostname_intra_data
$ ais config node t[nKfooBE] local host_net --json
"host_net": {
"hostname": "10.50.56.205",
"hostname_intra_control": "ais-target-27.ais.svc.cluster.local",
"hostname_intra_data": "ais-target-27.ais.svc.cluster.local",
"port": "51081",
"port_intra_control": "51082",
"port_intra_data": "51083"
}
The fact that there are 3 logical networks is not a "limitation" - not a requirement to specifically have 3. Using the example above, here's a small deployment-time change to run a single one:
"host_net": {
"hostname": "10.50.56.205",
"hostname_intra_control": "ais-target-27.ais.svc.cluster.local",
"hostname_intra_data": "ais-target-27.ais.svc.cluster.local",
"port": "51081",
"port_intra_control": "51081, # <<<<<< notice the same port
"port_intra_data": "51081" # <<<<<< ditto
}
Ideally though, production clusters are deployed over 3 physically different and isolated networks, whereby intense data traffic, for instance, does not introduce additional latency for the control one, etc.
Separately, there's a multi-homing capability motivated by the fact that today's server systems may often have, say, two 50Gbps network adapters. To deliver the entire 100Gbps without LACP trunking and (static) teaming, we could simply have something like:
"host_net": {
"hostname": "10.50.56.205, 10.50.56.206",
"hostname_intra_control": "ais-target-27.ais.svc.cluster.local",
"hostname_intra_data": "ais-target-27.ais.svc.cluster.local",
"port": "51081",
"port_intra_control": "51082",
"port_intra_data": "51083"
}
No other changes. Just add the second NIC - second IPv4 addr 10.50.56.206
above, and that's all.
AIStore gateway can act as a reverse proxy vis-à-vis AIStore storage targets. This functionality is limited to GET requests only and must be used with caution and consideration. Related configuration variable is called rproxy
- see sub-section http
of the section net
. For further details, please refer to this readme.
The following assumes that G
and T
are the (hostname:port) of one of the deployed gateways (in a given AIS cluster) and one of the targets, respectively.
- Set the stats logging interval to 1 second
$ curl -i -X PUT -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"action": "set-config","name": "periodic.stats_time", "value": "1s"}' 'http://G/v1/cluster'
or, same:
$ curl -i -X PUT 'http://G/v1/cluster/set-config?periodic.stats_time=1s'
Notice the two alternative ways to form the requests.
- Set the stats logging interval to 2 minutes
$ curl -i -X PUT -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"action": "set-config","name": "periodic.stats_time", "value": "2m"}' 'http://G/v1/cluster'
- Set the default number of n-way copies to 4 (can still be redefined on a per-bucket basis)
$ curl -i -X PUT -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"action": "set-config","name": "mirror.copies", "value": "4"}' 'http://G/v1/cluster'
# or, same using CLI:
$ ais config cluster mirror.copies 4
- Set log level = 1
$ curl -i -X PUT -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"action": "set-config","name": "log.level", "value": "1"}' 'http://T/v1/daemon'
# or, same:
$ curl -i -X PUT 'http://T/v1/daemon/set-config?log.level=1'
# or, same using CLI (assuming the node in question is t[tZktGpbM]):
$ ais config node t[tZktGpbM] log.level 1
AIS CLI is an integrated management-and-monitoring command line tool. The following CLI command sequence, first - finds out all AIS knobs that contain substring "time" in their names, second - modifies list_timeout
from 2 minutes to 5 minutes, and finally, displays the modified value:
$ ais show config p[rZTp8080] --type all --json | jq '.timeout.list_timeout'
"2m"
$ ais config cluster timeout.list_timeout=5m
Config has been updated successfully.
$ ais show config p[rZTp8080] --type all --json | jq '.timeout.list_timeout'
"5m"
The example above demonstrates cluster-wide configuration update but note: single-node updates are also supported.
- Set
periodic.stats_time
= 1 minute,periodic.iostat_time_long
= 4 seconds
$ ais config cluster periodic.stats_time=1m disk.iostat_time_long=4s
AIS configuration includes a section called disk
. The disk
in turn contains several knobs - one of those knobs is disk.iostat_time_long
, another - disk.disk_util_low_wm
. To update one or both of those named variables on all or one of the clustered nodes, you could:
- Set
disk.iostat_time_long
= 3 seconds,disk.disk_util_low_wm
= 40 percent on daemon with IDtarget1
$ ais config node target1 periodic.stats_time=1m disk.iostat_time_long=4s
