vtctld

The Vitess Admin GUI

<< mysqlctl vtexplain >>

vtctld is a webserver interface to administer a Vitess cluster. It is usually the first Vitess component to be started after a valid global topology service has been created.

Example Usage

The following example launches the vtctld daemon on port 15000:

  1. export TOPOLOGY_FLAGS="-topo_implementation etcd2 -topo_global_server_address localhost:2379 -topo_global_root /vitess/global"
  2. export VTDATAROOT="/tmp"
  3. vtctld \
  4. $TOPOLOGY_FLAGS \
  5. -workflow_manager_init \
  6. -workflow_manager_use_election \
  7. -service_map 'grpc-vtctl' \
  8. -backup_storage_implementation file \
  9. -file_backup_storage_root $VTDATAROOT/backups \
  10. -log_dir $VTDATAROOT/tmp \
  11. -port 15000 \
  12. -grpc_port 15999
