CES-VM Exporter configuration

Required configuration

The following values must be set via the etcd so that the exporter is configured correctly:

  • SSH key pair

    • A public key is required for the exporter.
    • This key pair can be generated with ssh-keygen.
    • The SSH key pair must not require a passphrase.

      etcdctl set /config/ces-exporter/authentication/public_key “<public key>
  • API key

    • The key can be generated individually with any characters.
    • The API key can have a length of 8 to 128 characters.
    • The API key is also required for the installation of the importer on the target instance.

      etcdctl set /config/ces-exporter/authentication/api_key “<my-api-key>”``

Optional configuration

The following values can be set via the etcd:

  • Volume Increase Factor

    • During migration, the volumes of the dogus on the target instance are increased so that they can contain the entire data volume of the dogus multiplied by a volume increase factor.
    • This volume increase factor must be specified as a decimal number.
    • A factor of 1.3 ensures that the volume on the target instance is 30% larger than the data volume of the Dogus.
    • The default value is 1.3.

      etcdctl set /config/ces-exporter/volumeIncreaseFactor "<factor as decimal number>"
