Management Console on AWS
Management Console (MC) is a database management tool that allows you to view and manage aspects of your cluster. Vertica provides an MC AMI, which you can use with AWS. The MC AMI allows you to create an instance, dedicated to running MC, that you can attach to a new or existing Vertica cluster on AWS. You can create and attach an MC instance to your Vertica on AWS cluster at any time.
After you launch your MC instance and configure your security group settings, you can log in to your database. To do so, use the elastic IP you specified during instance creation.
From this elastic IP, you can manage your Vertica database on AWS using standard MC procedures.
Considerations when using MC on AWS
-
Because MC is already installed on the MC AMI, the MC installation process does not apply.
-
To uninstall MC on AWS, follow the procedures provided in Uninstalling Management Console before terminating the MC Instance.
