Advanced Cassandra Actions
There are several actions for working with a Cassandra database which can be found in the NoSQL Storage plugin, under the Device Drivers / Plugins context. These actions allow for fine grain control over database security, as well as helping analyze corrupted contexts.
Create Cassandra User
The Create Cassandra User action creates a Cassandra user which requires a password.
To configure Iotellect to connect to Cassandra using a newly created user, open the NoSQL Configurations subgroup in the Storage group of the Global Configuration Options, and configure the following properties:
Use Authentication - Set to
True.Login - Use the Username of the new user.
Password - Use the Password of the new user.
Restart the server for the new configuration to take effect.
Optionally, use the action Drop Cassandra User to remove any other users.
Action Name: | createCassandraUser |
Non-Interactive Mode: | Not Supported |
Permissions: | Accessible at Administrator permission level |
Drop Cassandra User
This action facilitates the removal of other users. The default Cassandra user has username cassandra, and can be dropped once a new user has been created and Iotellect has been configured to access the NoSQL database (as described above) with a different user.
Action Name: | dropCassandraUser |
Non-Interactive Mode: | Not Supported |
Permissions: | Accessible at Administrator permission level |
Find Corrupted Contexts
In cases of disappearing or otherwise corrupted contexts, the Find Corrupted Contexts makes it possible to located affected contexts in the database for further analysis.
Action Name: | findCorruptedContexts |
Non-Interactive Mode: | Not Supported |
Permissions: | Accessible at Administrator permission level |
