Deploy Data Migration Using DM Binary

This document introduces how to quickly deploy the Data Migration (DM) cluster using DM binary.

Download DM binary

The DM binary is included in the TiDB Toolkit. To download the TiDB Toolkit, see Download TiDB Tools.

Sample scenario

Suppose that you deploy a DM cluster based on this sample scenario:

Two DM-worker nodes and three DM-master nodes are deployed on five servers.

Here is the address of each node:

InstanceServer addressPort
DM-master1192.168.0.48261
DM-master2192.168.0.58261
DM-master3192.168.0.68261
DM-worker1192.168.0.78262
DM-worker2192.168.0.88262

Based on this scenario, the following sections describe how to deploy the DM cluster.

Deploy DM-master

You can configure DM-master by using command-line parameters or the configuration file.

DM-master command-line parameters

The following is the description of DM-master command-line parameters:

./dm-master --help
Usage of dm-master: -L string log level: debug, info, warn, error, fatal (default "info") -V prints version and exit -advertise-addr string advertise address for client traffic (default "${master-addr}") -advertise-peer-urls string advertise URLs for peer traffic (default "${peer-urls}") -config string path to config file -data-dir string path to the data directory (default "default.${name}") -initial-cluster string initial cluster configuration for bootstrapping, e.g. dm-master=http://127.0.0.1:8291 -join string join to an existing cluster (usage: cluster's "${master-addr}" list, e.g. "127.0.0.1:8261,127.0.0.1:18261" -log-file string log file path -master-addr string master API server and status addr -name string human-readable name for this DM-master member -peer-urls string URLs for peer traffic (default "http://127.0.0.1:8291") -print-sample-config print sample config file of dm-worker

DM-master configuration file

The following is the configuration file of DM-master. It is recommended that you configure DM-master by using this method.

  1. Write the following configuration to conf/dm-master1.toml:

    # Master Configuration. name = "master1" # Log configurations. log-level = "info" log-file = "dm-master.log" # The listening address of DM-master. master-addr = "192.168.0.4:8261" # The peer URLs of DM-master. peer-urls = "192.168.0.4:8291" # The value of `initial-cluster` is the combination of the `advertise-peer-urls` value of all DM-master nodes in the initial cluster. initial-cluster = "master1=http://192.168.0.4:8291,master2=http://192.168.0.5:8291,master3=http://192.168.0.6:8291"
  2. Execute the following command in the terminal to run DM-master:

    ./dm-master -config conf/dm-master1.toml
  3. For DM-master2 and DM-master3, change name in the configuration file to master2 and master3 respectively, and change peer-urls to 192.168.0.5:8291 and 192.168.0.6:8291 respectively. Then repeat Step 2.

Deploy DM-worker

You can configure DM-worker by using command-line parameters or the configuration file.

DM-worker command-line parameters

The following is the description of the DM-worker command-line parameters:

./dm-worker --help
Usage of worker: -L string log level: debug, info, warn, error, fatal (default "info") -V prints version and exit -advertise-addr string advertise address for client traffic (default "${worker-addr}") -config string path to config file -join string join to an existing cluster (usage: dm-master cluster's "${master-addr}") -keepalive-ttl int dm-worker's TTL for keepalive with etcd (in seconds) (default 10) -log-file string log file path -name string human-readable name for DM-worker member -print-sample-config print sample config file of dm-worker -worker-addr string listen address for client traffic

DM-worker configuration file

The following is the DM-worker configuration file. It is recommended that you configure DM-worker by using this method.

  1. Write the following configuration to conf/dm-worker1.toml:

    # Worker Configuration. name = "worker1" # Log configuration. log-level = "info" log-file = "dm-worker.log" # DM-worker address. worker-addr = ":8262" # The master-addr configuration of the DM-master nodes in the cluster. join = "192.168.0.4:8261,192.168.0.5:8261,192.168.0.6:8261"
  2. Execute the following command in the terminal to run DM-worker:

    ./dm-worker -config conf/dm-worker1.toml
  3. For DM-worker2, change name in the configuration file to worker2. Then repeat Step 2.

Now, a DM cluster is successfully deployed.
