TiDB Data Migration Command-line Flags

This document introduces DM's command-line flags.

DM-master

--advertise-addr

  • The external address of DM-master used to receive client requests
  • The default value is "{master-addr}"
  • Optional flag. It can be in the form of "domain-name:port"

--advertise-peer-urls

  • The external address for communication between DM-master nodes
  • The default value is "{peer-urls}"
  • Optional flag. It can be in the form of "http(s)://domain-name:port"

--config

  • The configuration file path of DM-master
  • The default value is ""
  • Optional flag

--data-dir

  • The directory used to store data of DM-master
  • The default value is "default.{name}"
  • Optional flag

--initial-cluster

  • The "{node name}={external address}" list used to bootstrap DM-master cluster
  • The default value is "{name}={advertise-peer-urls}"
  • This flag needs to be specified if the join flag is not specified. A configuration example of a 3-node cluster is "dm-master-1=http://172.16.15.11:8291,dm-master-2=http://172.16.15.12:8291,dm-master-3=http://172.16.15.13:8291"

--join

  • The existing cluster's advertise-addr list when a DM-master node joins this cluster
  • The default value is ""
  • This flag needs to be specified if the initial-cluster flag is not specified. Suppose a new node joins a cluster that has 2 nodes, a configuration example is "172.16.15.11:8261,172.16.15.12:8261"

--log-file

  • The output file name of the log
  • The default value is ""
  • Optional flag

-L

  • The log level
  • The default value is "info"
  • Optional flag

--master-addr

  • The address on which DM-master listens to the client's requests
  • The default value is ""
  • Required flag

--name

  • The name of a DM-master node
  • The default value is "dm-master-{hostname}"
  • Required flag

--peer-urls

  • The listening address for communications between DM-master nodes
  • The default value is "http://127.0.0.1:8291"
  • Required flag

DM-worker

--advertise-addr

  • The external address of DM-worker used to receive client requests
  • The default value is "{worker-addr}"
  • Optional flag. It can be in the form of "domain-name:port"

--config

  • The configuration file path of DM-worker
  • The default value is ""
  • Optional flag

--join

  • The {advertise-addr} list of DM-master nodes in a cluster when a DM-worker registers to this cluster
  • The default value is ""
  • Required flag. A configuration example of 3-node (DM-master node) cluster is "172.16.15.11:8261,172.16.15.12:8261,172.16.15.13:8261"

--log-file

  • The output file name of the log
  • The default value is ""
  • Optional flag

-L

  • The log level
  • The default value is "info"
  • Optional flag

--name

  • The name of a DM-worker node
  • The default value is "{advertise-addr}"
  • Required flag

--worker-addr

  • The address on which DM-worker listens to the client's requests
  • The default value is ""
  • Required flag

dmctl

--config

  • The configuration file path of dmctl
  • The default value is ""
  • Optional flag

--master-addr

  • The {advertise-addr} of any DM-master node in the cluster to be connected by dmctl
  • The default value is ""
  • It is a required flag when dmctl interacts with DM-master

--encrypt

  • Encrypts the plaintext database password into ciphertext
  • The default value is ""
  • When this flag is specified, it is only used to encrypt the plaintext without interacting with the DM-master

--decrypt

  • Decrypts ciphertext encrypted with dmctl into plaintext
  • The default value is ""
  • When this flag is specified, it is only used to decrypt the ciphertext without interacting with the DM-master
