Modify a cluster endpoint

Procedure

1. Log on to the PolarDB console.
2. In the upper-left corner of the console, select the region where the cluster resides.
3. Find the cluster, and then click the cluster ID.
4. In the Endpoints section, find the cluster endpoint that you want to modify, and choose Settings > Modify on the right side of the cluster endpoint.
5. In the Configure Nodes dialog box, set the following parameters.

   Parameter	Description
   Read/write Mode	The read/write mode of the custom cluster endpoint. Available modes are Read Only and Read and Write (Automatic Read-write Splitting). Note After you change the read/write mode, existing connections are closed. Make sure that your application can automatically reconnect to the cluster.
   Reader Nodes	The nodes that you want to associate with the cluster endpoint to process read requests. You can select the nodes on the left side. Available nodes are the primary node and all the read-only nodes. Note If you set Read/write Mode to Read and Write (Automatic Read-write Splitting), you must select at least two nodes, including the primary node. If you set Read/write Mode to Read Only, you can create single-node endpoints. If you create a single-node endpoint for a read-only node and the read-only node becomes faulty, the single-node endpoint may be unavailable for up to 1 hour. We recommend that you do not create single-node endpoints in the production environment. We recommend that you select at least two nodes to improve cluster availability.
   Automatically Associate New Nodes	Specifies whether a new node is automatically associated with the cluster endpoint.
   Load Balancing Policy	The policy for scheduling read requests among multiple read-only nodes if read/write splitting is enabled. The default value is Load-based Automatic Scheduling and cannot be changed.
   Consistency Level	If you set Read/write Mode to Read and Write (Automatic Read-write Splitting), available consistency levels are Eventual Consistency and Session Consistency (Recommended). For more information, see Consistency levels. If you set Read/write Mode to Read Only, the default consistency level is Eventual Consistency and cannot be changed.
   Offload Reads from Primary Node	After this feature is enabled, SQL statements are sent to only read-only nodes. This reduces the load on the primary node and ensures the stability of the primary node. Note You can configure this feature only after you set Read/write Mode to Read and Write (Automatic Read-write Splitting).
   Transaction Splitting	Specifies whether to enable the transaction splitting feature. For more information, see Configure transaction splitting. Note You can configure this feature only after you set Read/write Mode to Read and Write (Automatic Read-write Splitting).

6. Click OK.
