1.1.1 NDB Cluster Data Node Data Directory Files

An NDB Cluster data node's data directory (DataDir) contains at least 3 files. These are named as shown in the following list, where node_id is the node ID:

  • ndb_node_id_out.log

    Sample output:

  • ndb_node_id_signal.log

    This file contains a log of all signals sent to or from the data node.

    Note

    This file is created only if the SendSignalId parameter is enabled, which is true only for -debug builds.

  • ndb_node_id.pid

    This file contains the data node's process ID; it is created when the ndbd process is started.

The location of these files is determined by the value of the DataDir configuration parameter.
