Edit this page

Below are properties set in accumulo-client.properties that configure Accumulo clients. All properties have been part of the API since 2.0.0 (unless otherwise specified):

Property Default value Since Description
instance.name empty 2.0.0 Name of Accumulo instance to connect to
instance.zookeepers localhost:2181 2.0.0 Zookeeper connection information for Accumulo instance
instance.zookeepers.timeout 30s 2.0.0 Zookeeper session timeout
auth.type password 2.0.0 Authentication method (i.e password, kerberos, PasswordToken, KerberosToken, etc)
auth.principal empty 2.0.0 Accumulo principal/username for chosen authentication method
auth.token empty 2.0.0 Authentication token (ex. mypassword, /path/to/keytab)
batch.writer.durability default 2.0.0 The durability used to write to the write-ahead log. Legal values are: none, which skips the write-ahead log; log, which sends the data to the write-ahead log, but does nothing to make it durable; flush, which pushes data to the file system; and sync, which ensures the data is written to disk. Setting this property will change the durability for the BatchWriter session. A value of “default” will use the table’s durability setting.

batch.writer.memory.max 50M 2.0.0 Max memory (in bytes) to batch before writing

batch.writer.timeout.max 0 2.0.0 Max amount of time (in seconds) an unresponsive server will be re-tried. An exception is thrown when this timeout is exceeded. Set to zero for no timeout.
