Option

Description

Type

route_priority

Relative routing priority of the node against other nodes in the same node group. Used only when electing a write leader.

integer

route_fence

Set to fence the node. When fenced, the node can't receive connections from the Connection Manager. It therefore can't become the write leader or be available in the read-only node pool. Replication is not impacted.

bool

route_writes

Determines whether writes can be routed to this node, that is, whether the node can become write leader.

bool

route_reads

Determines whether read-only connections can be routed to this node (PGD 5.5.0 and later).

bool

route_dsn

The dsn used by the Connection Manager to connect to this node.

string

No command specific options. See Global Options .
