alter async-event-queue
Alter attributes of a specified asynchronous event queue. Each server hosting the specified async event queue must be restarted for the new attribute settings to take effect on that server.
Availability: Online. You must be connected in gfsh to a JMX Manager member to use this command.
Syntax:
alter async-event-queue --id=value [--batch-size=value] [--batch-time-interval=value]
[--max-queue-memory=value] [--if-exists(=value)] [--pause-event-processing(=value)]
The required option, --id
, identifies the async event queue to be altered.
Parameters, alter async-event-queue
Name | Description |
---|---|
‑‑id | Required. ID of the async event queue to be changed |
‑‑batch‑size | Maximum number of events that a batch can contain |
‑‑batch‑time‑interval | Maximum amount of time, in ms, that can elapse before a batch is delivered |
‑‑max‑queue‑memory | Maximum amount of memory, in megabytes, that the queue can consume before overflowing to disk |
‑‑if‑exists | If the specified async event queue does not exist, gfsh responds with a message to that effect. If this parameter is true, the response is prefixed with the label “Skipping: ”. Useful for scripted tests. Default (if the parameter is not specified): false. Default (if the parameter is specified without value): true. |
‑‑pause‑event‑processing | Specifies whether event dispatching from the queue to the listener(s) will be paused when the AsyncEventQueue is started. Default (if the parameter is not specified): false. Default (if the parameter is specified without value): true. |
Example Commands:
alter async-event-queue --id=myAsyncEventQueue --batch-size=50 --if-exists
alter disk-store
Modify or remove a region from an offline disk-store.
When modifying a region’s configuration, it is customary to take the region off-line and restart using the new configuration. You can use the alter disk-store
command to change the configuration of the region stored in the disk-store to match the configuration you will use at restart.
Availability: Offline.
Syntax:
alter disk-store --name=value --region=value --disk-dirs=value(,value)*
[--compressor(=value)] [--concurrency-level=value]
[--enable-statistics=value] [--initial-capacity=value] [--load-factor=value]
[--lru-algorithm=value] [--lru-action=value] [--lru-limit=value]
[--off-heap(=value)] [--remove(=value)]
The three required options, --name
, --region
, and --disk-dirs
, identify the disk store and region to be altered. If no additional options are specified, gfsh
displays the current configuration without making any changes.
Parameters, alter disk-store
Name | Description |
---|---|
--name | Required. Name of the disk-store whose contents will be altered. |
--region | Required. Name (including path) of the region using the disk store. |
--disk-dirs | Required. Directories where the data for the disk store was previously written. |
--compressor | The fully-qualified class name of the compressor to use when compressing region entry values. A value of none removes the compressor. |
--concurrency-level | An estimate of the maximum number of application threads that will concurrently access a region entry. Together with --initial-capacity and --load-factor, sets the parameters on the underlying java.util.ConcurrentHashMap used for storing region entries. This attribute does not apply to partitioned regions. |
--enable-statistics | Enables statistics for the region specified by the --region option. Valid values are true or false. If the parameter is specified without a value, the value of true is used. |
--initial-capacity | Together with --concurrency-level and --load-factor, sets the parameters on the underlying java.util.ConcurrentHashMap used for storing region entries. |
--load-factor | Together with --concurrency-level and --initial-capacity, sets the parameters on the underlying java.util.ConcurrentHashMap used for storing region entries. This must be a floating point number between 0 and 1, inclusive. |
--lru-action | Action to take when evicting entries from the region. Valid values are:
|
--lru-algorithm | Least recently used eviction algorithm. Valid types are:
|
--lru-limit | Number of entries allowed in the region before eviction occurs. |
--off-heap | Specifies whether the region values are in heap memory or off-heap memory. When true, region values are in off-heap memory. If the parameter is specified without a value, the value of true is used. |
--remove | Specifies whether to remove the region from the disk-store. If the parameter is specified without a value, the value of true is used. Note: --remove deletes all persistent data for the region. Consider copying the disk store files to a backup before using this option if you might want to retrieve the data at a later date. |
Example Commands:
alter disk-store --name=DiskStore1 --region=region1 --disk-dirs=/Disks/DiskStore1 --off-heap
alter disk-store --name=DiskStore1 --region=region1 --disk-dirs=/Disks/DiskStore1 --remove
alter query-service
Alter configuration details of the query configuration service.
Availability: Online. You must be connected in gfsh to a JMX Manager member to use this command.
Syntax:
alter query-service --method-authorizer=value
[--authorizer-parameters=value(;value)*] [--force-update(=value)]
Parameters, alter query-service
Name | Description |
---|---|
‑‑method-authorizer | Required. Fully qualified class name of the MethodInvocationAuthorizer to be used for query authorization. |
‑‑authorizer-parameters | A semicolon-separated list of parameters to be used by the specified MethodInvocationAuthorizer . This requires that a method-authorizer option has been specified. |
‑‑force-update | Specifies whether to forcibly update the MethodInvocationAuthorizer , even when there are continuous queries registered in the member. Default (if the parameter is not specified): false . Default (if the parameter is specified without value): true . Note: when set as true , any registered CQ will pick up the new MethodInvocationAuthorizer and invalidate its internal cache; consider checking that the new MethodInvocationAuthorizer allows the methods invoked by the CQs before using this option. |
Example Commands:
alter query-service --method-authorizer=org.apache.geode.cache.query.security.UnrestrictedMethodAuthorizer
alter query-service --method-authorizer=org.apache.geode.cache.query.security.UnrestrictedMethodAuthorizer --force-update=true

alter runtime
Alters configuration properties for all servers or a subset of servers while the member or members are running. Alter runtime is a cluster configuration command that affects the configuration for newly joining servers. In order for running members to adopt the alteration, they must be stopped and restarted.
