Managing Parameter Template

Last updated: 2023-05-09 16:03:45
In addition to the various system parameter templates provided by TencentDB for Redis, you can also create custom parameter templates to configure parameters in batches as needed.
You can apply a parameter template to configure and manage the parameters of a database engine. A template is like a container of the values of database engine parameters, which can be applied to one or more database instances.
Parameter templates support the following features:
Support the default parameter templates.
Create custom templates by modifying the default parameters.
Save parameter configurations as templates.
Import parameters from templates to apply to one or more instances.
Notes
If the parameters in the template are updated, the instance parameters are not updated unless they are manually re-applied to the instances.
You can apply the parameter changes to single or multiple instances by importing a template.

Creating a custom parameter template

To use your own database parameter template, you can create a parameter template, modify the parameter values, and apply the template to instances.
1. Log in to the TencentDB for Redis console, select Parameter Templates on the left sidebar, and click Create Template.
2. In the pop-up window, configure the following parameters and click Create and Set Parameters.
Template Name: Enter a unique template name.
Database Version: Select a database version.
Template Description: Enter a brief description of the parameter template.
3. On the displayed parameter configuration page, make sure that all parameter values are correct and the parameter template is created successfully.

Default template

This page displays the default templates applicable to Redis 2.8 standard architecture, Redis 4.0 standard architecture, Redis 4.0 cluster architecture, Redis 5.0 standard architecture, and Redis 5.0 cluster architecture.
Note:
When you purchase an instance, the system automatically matches the appropriate default template based on the selected compatible version and architecture. For detailed directions, see Creating Redis Instance.

Notes
On the Default Template page, you can click View Details to view a template, but on the displayed details page, you cannot do any operation.
