This topic describes all system parameters of OceanBase Admin Toolkit (OAT) for reference by OAT administrators.

Parameter Default value Description Restart required
oat.backup.remote_backup none Specifies whether to enable remote backup of OAT data, such as the database records, local logs, and local installation packages. The value none indicates that this feature is disabled. If you want to enable this feature, specify a backup directory in the username@remote_host:backup_dir format. Example: test@xxx.xxx.xxx.1:/oat_backup_files. The system backs up data based on the remote backup schedule specified for the oat.backup.remote_backup_schedule parameter. You can run the rsync over ssh command to push the backup data to a remote server.
Make sure that the following conditions are met:
  1. The remote server supports the rsync command and contains the specified backup directory.
  2. You can run the ssh username@remote_host command in the OAT container without the need to provide the password.
  3. You can run the sudo rsync command without the need to provide the password when the specified user is not the root user.
No
oat.backup.remote_backup_schedule 0 5 * * * The remote backup schedule in a CRON expression. No
oat.database.auto_purge_beyond_days 60 The number of days for which the non-essential data in the database is retained. The non-essential data includes the collected monitoring metrics and the scheduling records of backend polling tasks. No
oat.nlb.metadb_vport 3306 The port number that is preferentially used when Network Load Balancer (NLB) automatically generates a load balancing rule for MetaDB. No
oat.run_mode strict The running mode of OAT. Valid values: loose and strict. OAT in loose mode checks the server environment in a less strict manner. No
oat.task.health_check_interval_seconds 30 The interval, in seconds, between health checks of a server, component, or service. We recommend that you set this parameter to a value greater than 10. No
oat.task.log_reserve_days 15 The number of days for which a local task log file is retained. No
oat.task.monitor_server_schedule 0 * * * * The schedule in a CRON expression for collecting the server information, such as the hardware specifications, operating system, network, and hosted services. No
