Parameters

Parameter Description
path

The path to the replica.

  • For a path to a table on the local cluster, start the path at the volume mount point. For example, for a table named testdst under volume1 which has a mount point at /volume1, specify the following path: /volume1/testdst
  • For a path to a table on a remote cluster, you must also specify the cluster name in the path. For example, for a table named customerdst under volume1 in the sanfrancisco cluster, specify the following path: /mapr/sanfrancisco/volume1/customerdst
upstream

The path to the source table.

  • For a path on the local cluster, start the path at the volume mount point. For example, for a table named testsrc under volume1 which has a mount point at /volume1, specify the following path: /volume1/testsrc
  • For a path on another cluster, you must also specify the cluster name in the path. For example, for a table named customersrc under volume1 in the sanfrancisco cluster, specify the following path: /mapr/sanfrancisco/volume1/customersrc
