DM Advanced Task Configuration File |
|
This document introduces the advanced task configuration file of Data Migration (DM), including global configuration and instance configuration.
For the feature and configuration of each configuration item, see Data migration features.
For description of important concepts including source-id and the DM-worker ID, see Important concepts.
The following is the task configuration file template which allows you to perform advanced data migration tasks.
---
# ----------- Global setting -----------
## ********* Basic configuration *********
name: test # The name of the task. Should be globally unique.
task-mode: all # The task mode. Can be set to `full`(only migrates full data)/`incremental`(replicates binlogs synchronously)/`all` (replicates both full data and incremental binlogs).
is-sharding: true # `is-sharding` has been deprecated since v2.0.0, so it is recommended to directly use `shard-mode`
shard-mode: "pessimistic" # The shard merge mode. Optional modes are ""/"pessimistic"/"optimistic". The "" mode is used by default which means sharding DDL merge is disabled. If the task is a shard merge task, set it to the "pessimistic" mode.
# After understanding the principles and restrictions of the "optimistic" mode, you can set it to the "optimistic" mode.
meta-schema: "dm_meta" # The downstream database that stores the `meta` information.
timezone: "Asia/Shanghai" # The timezone.
case-sensitive: false # Determines whether the schema/table is case-sensitive.
online-ddl: true # Supports automatic processing of upstream "gh-ost" and "pt".
online-ddl-scheme: "gh-ost" # `online-ddl-scheme` has been deprecated in v2.0.6, so it is recommended to use `online-ddl`.
clean-dump-file: true # Whether to clean up the files generated during data dump. Note that these include `metadata` files.
target-database: # Configuration of the downstream database instance.
host: "192.168.0.1"
port: 4000
user: "root"
password: "/Q7B9DizNLLTTfiZHv9WoEAKamfpIUs=" # It is recommended to use a password encrypted with `dmctl encrypt`.
max-allowed-packet: 67108864 # Sets the "max_allowed_packet" limit of the TiDB client (that is, the limit of the maximum accepted packet) when DM internally connects to the TiDB server. The unit is bytes. (67108864 by default)
# Since DM v2.0.0, this configuration item is deprecated, and DM automatically obtains the "max_allowed_packet" value from TiDB.
session: # The session variables of TiDB, supported since v1.0.6. For details, go to `https://pingcap.com/docs/stable/system-variables`.
sql_mode: "ANSI_QUOTES,NO_ZERO_IN_DATE,NO_ZERO_DATE" # Since DM v2.0.0, if this item does not appear in the configuration file, DM automatically fetches a proper value for "sql_mode" from the downstream TiDB. Manual configuration of this item has a higher priority.
tidb_skip_utf8_check: 1 # Since DM v2.0.0, if this item does not appear in the configuration file, DM automatically fetches a proper value for "tidb_skip_utf8_check" from the downstream TiDB. Manual configuration of this item has a higher priority.
tidb_constraint_check_in_place: 0
security: # The TLS configuration of the downstream TiDB
ssl-ca: "/path/to/ca.pem"
ssl-cert: "/path/to/cert.pem"
ssl-key: "/path/to/key.pem"

# Configuration arguments of the dump processing unit.
mydumpers:
global: # The configuration name of the processing unit.
threads: 4 # The number of the threads that the dump processing unit dumps from the upstream database (4 by default).
chunk-filesize: 64 # The size of the file generated by the dump processing unit (64 in MB by default).
extra-args: "--consistency none" # Other arguments of the dump processing unit. You do not need to manually configure table-list in `extra-args`, because table-list is automatically generated by DM.
# Configuration arguments of the load processing unit.
loaders:
global: # The configuration name of the processing unit.
pool-size: 16 # The number of threads that concurrently execute dumped SQL files in the load processing unit (16 by default). When multiple instances are migrating data to TiDB at the same time, slightly reduce the value according to the load.
dir: "./dumped_data" # The directory that the load processing unit reads from and the dump processing unit outputs SQL files to ("./dumped_data" by default). The directories for different tasks of the same instance must be different.
# Configuration arguments of the sync processing unit.
syncers:
global: # The configuration name of the processing unit.
worker-count: 16 # The number of concurrent threads that apply binlogs which have been transferred to the local (16 by default). Adjusting this parameter has no effect on the concurrency of upstream pull logs, but has a significant effect on the downstream database.
batch: 100 # The number of SQL statements in a transaction batch that the sync processing unit replicates to the downstream database (100 by default). Generally, it is recommended to set the value less than 500.
enable-ansi-quotes: true # Enable this argument if `sql-mode: "ANSI_QUOTES"` is set in the `session`
# If set to true, `INSERT` statements from upstream are rewritten to `REPLACE` statements, and `UPDATE` statements are rewritten to `DELETE` and `REPLACE` statements. This ensures that DML statements can be imported repeatedly during data migration when there is any primary key or unique index in the table schema.
safe-mode: false
# If set to true, DM compacts as many upstream statements on the same rows as possible into a single statements without increasing latency.
# For example, `INSERT INTO tb(a,b) VALUES(1,1); UPDATE tb SET b=11 WHERE a=1`;` will be compacted to `INSERT INTO tb(a,b) VALUES(1,11);`, where "a" is the primary key
# `UPDATE tb SET b=1 WHERE a=1; UPDATE tb(a,b) SET b=2 WHERE a=1;` will be compacted to `UPDATE tb(a,b) SET b=2 WHERE a=1;`, where "a" is the primary key
# `DELETE FROM tb WHERE a=1; INSERT INTO tb(a,b) VALUES(1,1);` will be compacted to `REPLACE INTO tb(a,b) VALUES(1,1);`, where "a" is the primary key
compact: false
# If set to true, DM combines as many statements of the same type as possible into a single statement and generates a single SQL statement with multiple rows of data.
# For example, `INSERT INTO tb(a,b) VALUES(1,1); INSERT INTO tb(a,b) VALUES(2,2);` will become `INSERT INTO tb(a,b) VALUES(1,1),(2,2);`
# `UPDATE tb SET b=11 WHERE a=1; UPDATE tb(a,b) set b=22 WHERE a=2;` will become `INSERT INTO tb(a,b) VALUES(1,11),(2,22) ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE a=VALUES(a), b= VALUES(b);`, where "a" is the primary key
# `DELETE FROM tb WHERE a=1; DELETE FROM tb WHERE a=2` will become `DELETE FROM tb WHERE (a) IN (1),(2)`, where "a" is the primary key

Refer to the comments in the template to see more details. Detailed explanations about task-mode are as follows:
- Description: the task mode that can be used to specify the data migration task to be executed.
- Value: string (
full,incremental, orall).fullonly makes a full backup of the upstream database and then imports the full data to the downstream database.incremental: Only replicates the incremental data of the upstream database to the downstream database using the binlog. You can set themetaconfiguration item of the instance configuration to specify the starting position of incremental replication.all:full+incremental. Makes a full backup of the upstream database, imports the full data to the downstream database, and then uses the binlog to make an incremental replication to the downstream database starting from the exported position during the full backup process (binlog position).
Arguments in each feature configuration set are explained in the comments in the template.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
routes |
The routing mapping rule set between the upstream and downstream tables. If the names of the upstream and downstream schemas and tables are the same, this item does not need to be configured. See Table Routing for usage scenarios and sample configurations. |
filters |
The binlog event filter rule set of the matched table of the upstream database instance. If binlog filtering is not required, this item does not need to be configured. See Binlog Event Filter for usage scenarios and sample configurations. |
block-allow-list |
The filter rule set of the block allow list of the matched table of the upstream database instance. It is recommended to specify the schemas and tables that need to be migrated through this item, otherwise all schemas and tables are migrated. See Binlog Event Filter and Block & Allow Lists for usage scenarios and sample configurations. |
mydumpers |
Configuration arguments of dump processing unit. If the default configuration is sufficient for your needs, this item does not need to be configured. Or you can configure thread only using mydumper-thread. |
loaders |
Configuration arguments of load processing unit. If the default configuration is sufficient for your needs, this item does not need to be configured. Or you can configure pool-size only using loader-thread. |
syncers |
Configuration arguments of sync processing unit. If the default configuration is sufficient for your needs, this item does not need to be configured. Or you can configure worker-count only using syncer-thread. |
This part defines the subtask of data migration. DM supports migrating data from one or multiple MySQL instances in the upstream to the same instance in the downstream.
