This is the MariaDB ColumnStore System Configuration and Installation tool.
It will Configure the MariaDB ColumnStore System and will perform a Package
Installation of all of the Servers within the System that is being configured.
IMPORTANT: This tool requires to run on the Performance Module #1
Prompting instructions:
Press 'enter' to accept a value in (), if available or
Enter one of the options within [], if available, or
Enter a new value
===== Setup System Server Type Configuration =====
There are 2 options when configuring the System Server Type: single and multi
'single' - Single-Server install is used when there will only be 1 server configured
on the system. It can also be used for production systems, if the plan is
to stay single-server.
'multi' - Multi-Server install is used when you want to configure multiple servers now or
in the future. With Multi-Server install, you can still configure just 1 server
now and add on addition servers/modules in the future.
Select the type of System Server install [1=single, 2=multi] (2) >
===== Setup System Module Type Configuration =====
There are 2 options when configuring the System Module Type: separate and combined
'separate' - User and Performance functionality on separate servers.
'combined' - User and Performance functionality on the same server
Select the type of System Module Install [1=separate, 2=combined] (1) >
Seperate Server Installation will be performed.
NOTE: Local Query Feature allows the ability to query data from a single Performance
Module. Check MariaDB ColumnStore Admin Guide for additional information.
Enable Local Query feature? [y,n] 
>
NOTE: The MariaDB ColumnStore Schema Sync feature will replicate all of the
schemas and InnoDB tables across the User Module nodes. This feature can be enabled
or disabled, for example, if you wish to configure your own replication post installation.
MariaDB ColumnStore Schema Sync feature is Enabled, do you want to leave enabled? [y,n] 
>
NOTE: MariaDB ColumnStore Replication Feature is enabled
Enter System Name (columnstore-1) >
===== Setup Storage Configuration =====
----- Setup Performance Module DBRoot Data Storage Mount Configuration -----
Columnstore supports the following storage options...
1 - internal. This uses the linux VFS to access files and does
not manage the filesystem.
2 - external *. If you have other mountable filesystems you would
like ColumnStore to use & manage, select this option.
3 - GlusterFS * Note: glusterd service must be running and enabled on
all PMs.
4 - S3-compatible cloud storage *. Note: that should be configured
before running postConfigure (see storagemanager.cnf)
- - This option enables data replication and server failover in a
multi-node configuration.
These options are available on this system: [1, 2, 3, 4]
Select the type of data storage (1) > 3
===== Setup Memory Configuration =====
NOTE: Setting 'NumBlocksPct' to 70%
Setting 'TotalUmMemory' to 50%
===== Setup the Module Configuration =====

Next step is to enter the password to access the other Servers.
This is either user password or you can default to using a ssh key
If using a user password, the password needs to be the same on all Servers.
Enter password, hit 'enter' to default to using a ssh key, or 'exit' >

===== Configuring MariaDB ColumnStore Data Redundancy Functionality =====
----- Setup Data Redundancy Copy Count Configuration -----
Setup the Number of Copies: This is the total number of copies of the data
in the system. At least 2, but not more than the number of PMs(3), are required.
Enter Number of Copies [2-3] (2) > 3
----- Setup Data Redundancy Network Configuration -----
'existing' - This is specified when using previously configured network devices. (NIC Interface #1)
No additional network configuration is required with this option.
'dedicated' - This is specified when it is desired for Data Redundancy traffic to use
a separate network than one previously configured for ColumnStore.
You will be prompted to provide Hostname and IP information for each PM.
