Configuring Properties Not Exposed in Cloudera Manager

Learn how to configure configuration properties not exposed in Cloudera Manager.

In addition to the configuration properties exposed directly for configuration through Cloudera Manager, SRM accepts a number of additional SRM specific properties as well as all Kafka client properties available in the version of Kafka that you are using. Properties not exposed directly can be set through the streams.replication.manager's replication configs property. For a comprehensive list of SRM specific properties, see the configuration properties reference. For a comprehensive list of Kafka client properties, see the upstream Apache Kafka documentation.

Configuration properties for SRM can be set on three different levels, which are the following:
  • Top level: Top level or global configuration is achieved by adding the property on its own. For example:
    replication.factor=3
  • Cluster level: Cluster level configuration can be achieved by prepeding the configuration property with a cluster alias specified in Streams Replication Manager Cluster alias.. For example:
    primary.replication.factor=3
  • Replication level:Replication level configuration can be achieved by prepeding the configuration property with the name of the replication. For example:
    primary->secondary.replication.factor=3

Make sure that cluster aliases and replications are configured. Otherwise cluster or replication level configuration is not possible.

  1. In Cloudera Manager select Streams Replication Manager.
  2. Go to Configuration.
  3. Configure properties not exposed in Cloudera Manager:
    1. Find the streams.replication.manager's replication configs property.
    2. Click the add button and add new lines for each additional property you want to configure.
    3. Add configuration properties. For example:
      replication.factor=3
  4. Enter a Reason for change, and then click Save Changes to commit the changes.
  5. Restart Streams Replication Manager.
Configuration properties not directly exposed in Cloudera Manager are configured.
