OAT configuration parameters

Last Updated:2026-09-03 09:50:14

This topic describes all system parameters of OceanBase Admin Toolkit (OAT) in use.

Parameter
Default value
Description
Effective only after restart
oat.backup.remote_backup none Specifies whether to enable the 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 enable this feature, set the backup directory in the username@remote_host:backup_dir format. For example: test@xxx.xxx.xxx.1:/oat_backup_files. The system backup is executed based on the value of 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 the specified backup directory exists on the remote server.
  2. The ssh username@remote_host statement can be executed in the OAT container without using the password.
  3. If the username is not root, the sudo rsync command can be run without using the password.

oat.task.health_check_interval_seconds 30 The interval, in seconds, between health checks of a server, component, or product. We recommend that you set the interval to longer than 10s. No
oat.task.log_reserve_days 15 The duration, in days, that 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, OS information, network information, and hosted services. No
