Changing the Topology Using the CLI or REST API
About this task
The basic command to move nodes to a different topology is:
/opt/mapr/bin/maprcli node move -serverids <server IDs> -topology <topology>
For complete reference information, see node move
.
The move will fail if the server ID is negative. To fix this issue, perform one of the following:
- If you are moving only a single server ID that is negative, or a bunch of
server IDs that are all negative, prefix 0 as an additional server ID. For
example:
/opt/mapr/bin/maprcli node move -serverids 0,-6151492882499457449,-2668056288676628812 -topology /data/mytopo -json
- If you are moving a bunch of server IDs with a mix of positive and negative
server IDs, place a positive ID as the first ID. For example:
/opt/mapr/bin/maprcli node move -serverids 1507661865183706279,-6151492882499457449,-2668056288676628812 -topology /data/mytopo -json
