Stand-Alone Deployment

This guide introduces how to set up a standalone TimechoDB instance, which includes one ConfigNode and one DataNode (commonly referred to as 1C1D).

1. Prerequisites

  1. System Preparation: Ensure the system has been configured according to the System Requirements.

  2. IP Configuration: It is recommended to use hostnames for IP configuration to prevent issues caused by IP address changes. Set the hostname by editing the /etc/hosts file. For example, if the local IP is 192.168.1.3 and the hostname is iotdb-1, run:

echo "192.168.1.3  iotdb-1" >> /etc/hosts

Use the hostname for cn_internal_address and dn_internal_address in IoTDB configuration.

  1. Unmodifiable Parameters: Some parameters cannot be changed after the first startup. Refer to the Parameter Configuration section.

  2. Installation Path: Ensure the installation path contains no spaces or non-ASCII characters to prevent runtime issues.

  3. User Permissions: Choose one of the following permissions during installation and deployment:

    • Root User (Recommended): This avoids permission-related issues.
    • Non-Root User:
      • Use the same user for all operations, including starting, activating, and stopping services.
      • Avoid using sudo, which can cause permission conflicts.
  4. Health Check Tool: Before installation, the health check tool can help inspect the operating environment of IoTDB nodes and obtain detailed inspection results. The usage method of the IoTDB health check tool can be found in:Health Check Tool.

2. Installation Steps

2.1 Pre-installation Check

To ensure the IoTDB installation package you obtained is complete and valid, we recommend performing an SHA512 verification before proceeding with the installation and deployment.

Preparation:

  • Obtain the officially released SHA512 checksum: Visit the Release Versions page on the IoTDB open-source official website to get it.

Verification Steps (Linux as an Example):

  1. Open the terminal and navigate to the directory where the installation package is stored (e.g., /data/iotdb):
       cd /data/iotdb
  2. Execute the following command to calculate the hash value:
       sha512sum apache-iotdb-{version}-all-bin.zip
  3. The terminal will output a result (the left part is the SHA512 checksum, and the right part is the file name):

  1. Compare the output result with the official SHA512 checksum. Once confirmed that they match, you can proceed with the installation and deployment of IoTDB as per the procedures below.

Notes:

  • If the verification results do not match, please re-obtain the installation package.
  • If a "file not found" prompt appears during verification, check whether the file path is correct or if the installation package has been fully downloaded.

2.2 Extract Installation Package

Unzip the installation package and navigate to the directory:

unzip  apache-iotdb-{version}-all-bin.zip
cd  apache-iotdb-{version}-all-bin

2.3 Parameters Configuration

2.3.1 Memory Configuration

Edit the following files for memory allocation:

  • ConfigNode: conf/confignode-env.sh (or .bat for Windows)
  • DataNode: conf/datanode-env.sh (or .bat for Windows)
Parameter Description Default Recommended Notes
MEMORY_SIZE Total memory allocated for the node Empty As needed Save changes without immediate execution; modifications take effect after service restart.

2.3.2 General Configuration

Set the following parameters in conf/iotdb-system.properties. Refer to conf/iotdb-system.properties.template for a complete list.

Cluster-Level Parameters:

Parameter Description Default Recommended Notes
cluster_name Name of the cluster defaultCluster Customizable Support hot loading, but it is not recommended to change the cluster name by manually modifying the configuration file.
schema_replication_factor Number of metadata replicas 1 1 In standalone mode, set this to 1. This value cannot be modified after the first startup.
data_replication_factor Number of data replicas 1 1 In standalone mode, set this to 1. This value cannot be modified after the first startup.

ConfigNode Parameters:

Parameter Description Default Recommended Notes
cn_internal_address Address used for internal communication within the cluster 127.0.0.1 Server's IPv4 address or hostname. Use hostname to avoid issues when the IP changes. This parameter cannot be modified after the first startup.
cn_internal_port Port used for internal communication within the cluster 10710 10710 This parameter cannot be modified after the first startup.
cn_consensus_port Port used for consensus protocol communication among ConfigNode replicas 10720 10720 This parameter cannot be modified after the first startup.
cn_seed_config_node Address of the ConfigNode for registering and joining the cluster. (e.g.,cn_internal_address:cn_internal_port) 127.0.0.1:10710 Use cn_internal_address:cn_internal_port This parameter cannot be modified after the first startup.

DataNode Parameters:

Parameter Description Default Recommended Notes
dn_rpc_address Address for the client RPC service 0.0.0.0 The IPV4 address or host name of the server where it is located, and it is recommended to use the IPV4 address Effective after restarting the service.
dn_rpc_port Port for the client RPC service 6667 6667 Effective after restarting the service.
dn_internal_address Address used for internal communication within the cluster 127.0.0.1 Server's IPv4 address or hostname. Use hostname to avoid issues when the IP changes. This parameter cannot be modified after the first startup.
dn_internal_port Port used for internal communication within the cluster 10730 10730 This parameter cannot be modified after the first startup.
dn_mpp_data_exchange_port Port used for receiving data streams 10740 10740 This parameter cannot be modified after the first startup.
dn_data_region_consensus_port Port used for data replica consensus protocol communication 10750 10750 This parameter cannot be modified after the first startup.
dn_schema_region_consensus_port Port used for metadata replica consensus protocol communication 10760 10760 This parameter cannot be modified after the first startup.
dn_seed_config_node Address of the ConfigNode for registering and joining the cluster. (e.g.,cn_internal_address:cn_internal_port) 127.0.0.1:10710 Use cn_internal_address:cn_internal_port This parameter cannot be modified after the first startup.

2.4 Start ConfigNode

Navigate to the sbin directory and start ConfigNode:

./sbin/start-confignode.sh -d   # The "-d" flag starts the process in the background.

If the startup fails, refer to the Common Issues。 section below for troubleshooting.

2.5 Start DataNode

Navigate to the sbin directory of IoTDB and start the DataNode:

./sbin/start-datanode.sh -d    # The "-d" flag starts the process in the background.

2.6 Start CLI

Enter the IoTDB CLI.

# For Linux or macOS
./start-cli.sh -sql_dialect table

# For Windows
./start-cli.bat -sql_dialect table

3. Common Issues

  1. ConfigNode Fails to Start

    1. Review the startup logs to check if any parameters, which cannot be modified after the first startup, were changed.
    2. Check the logs for any other errors. If unresolved, contact technical support for assistance.
    3. If the deployment is fresh or data can be discarded, clean the environment and redeploy using the following steps:

Clean the Environment

  1. Stop all ConfigNode and DataNode processes:

    sbin/stop-standalone.sh
  2. Check for any remaining processes:

    jps 
    # or 
    ps -ef | grep iotdb
  3. If processes remain, terminate them manually:

    kill -9 <pid>
    
    #For systems with a single IoTDB instance, you can clean up residual processes with:
    ps -ef | grep iotdb | grep -v grep | tr -s ' ' ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f2 | xargs kill -9
  4. Delete the data and logs directories:

    cd /data/iotdb 
    rm -rf data logs
