Using the configuration tool

Using the configuration tool

The configuration tool allows you to configure, control and verify dashboard services.

Via the command line

To get the full help all you need to do is:

configuration-tool --help

Note: The configuration tool is not a fan of relative paths. Use absolute paths when one needs to be specified.

Examples

Configuring the application using a json file:

configuration-tool configure --type=json --json-file=/absolute/path/to/dashboard.json

Backing up the database:

configuration-tool database --backup

Restoring a database:

configuration-tool database --restore=/absolute/path/to/sqldump.sql

Starting just the renderer:

configuration-tool service start renderer

Checking whether all the scheduler dependencies are in place to start it:

configuration-tool dependency-check scheduler
