Sync tool options

The sync utility immediately updates all source definitions by querying the Kafka cluster's brokers defined by the source. By default, it updates all of the sources defined in the target schema. To update just specific sources, use the --source and --cluster options to specify which sources to update.

Syntax

vkconfig sync [options...]

--source source_name

The name of the source sync. This source must already exist in the target schema.

--cluster cluster_name

Identifies the cluster containing the source that you want to sync. You must have already defined this cluster in the scheduler.

--kafka_conf 'kafka_configuration_setting'

A JSON-formatted object of option/value pairs to pass directly to the rdkafka library. This is the library Vertica uses to communicate with Kafka. You can use this parameter to directly set configuration options that are not available through the Vertica integration with Kafka. See Directly setting Kafka library options for details.

See the Common vkconfig script options for options available in all of the vkconfig tools..
