DescriptionOption
Always use -sync=false when starting multiple members
on the same machine, especially when executing sqlf commands
from a shell script or batch le, so that the script le does not hang
while waiting for a particular SQLFire member to start. You can use
the sqlf locator wait and/or sqlf server
wait later in the script to verify that each server has nished
synchronizing and has reached the "running" state. For example:
#!/bin/bash
# Start all local SQLFire members to
waiting state, regardless of which
member holds the most recent
# disk store files:
sqlf locator start -dir=/locator1
-sync=false
sqlf server start -client-port=1528
-locators=localhost[10334]
-dir=/server1 -sync=false
sqlf server start -client-port=1529
-locators=localhost[10334]
-dir=/server2 -sync=false
# Wait until all members have
finished synchronizing and starting:
sqlf locator wait -dir=/locator1
sqlf server wait -dir=/server1
sqlf server wait -dir=/server2
# Continue any additional tasks that
require access to the SQLFire
members...
[...]
Causes the new member to trigger a rebalancing operation for all
partitioned tables in the system. The system always tries to satisfy
-rebalance
the redundancy of all partitioned tables on new member startup
regardless of this option.
Comma-separated list of les containing initial SQL commands to
be executed by this member prior to executing any other commands.
-cong-scripts
The format of these les is same as that required by the SQLFire
command shell.
The scripts in "-cong-scripts" should include conguration and
other options, or initial DDL statements to be executed before any
other operation in the member, including execution of initial DDLs
from other members or those persisted in the default disk store of
this member.
As with cong-scripts, this is a comma-separated list of les
containing the initial SQL commands to be executed in the same
-init-scripts
format as that required by the SQLFire command shell. Unlike
