Qos Command Usage

Telnet (new version) command usage in dubbo

Monday, January 01, 0001

In dubbo 2.5.8 a new QOS module is introduced, to provide new telnet command support.

Port

the port of new version telnet is different from the port of dubbo protocol. The default port is 22222, which can be changed by modifying configuration file dubbo.properties

dubbo.application.qos.port=33333

or by modifying the JVM parameter

-Ddubbo.application.qos.port=33333

Safety

By default, dubbo can receive any command sent from the host, which can be changed by modifying the configuration file dubbo.properties

dubbo.application.qos.accept.foreign.ip=false

or by configuring the JVM parameter

-Ddubbo.application.qos.accept.foreign.ip=false

to reject command sent from the remote host, allowing only the local server to run the command

Telnet and HTTP protocol

The telnet module supports both http and telnet protocol, in order to facilitate the use of various situations

For example,

➜  ~ telnet localhost 22222
Trying ::1...
telnet: connect to address ::1: Connection refused
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

Online service command

When using delay publishing function(org.apache.dubbo.config.AbstractServiceConfig#register set as false), you can use “online” command to online the service

//online all services
dubbo>online
OK

//online part of servies according to regularity.
dubbo>online com.*
OK

Common usage situations:

Because there is no JIT or the related resources warm-up, when the machine is restarted and the online QPS is relatively high , a large amount of timeout situations may occur. At this time,the problem can be solved by distributing the batch service and increasing the traffic gradually.
A machine needs to be back online after going offline due to some reasons.

Offline service Command

Offline command can be used if temporary offline service is needed when fault occurs.

//offline all service 
dubbo>offline
OK

//offline some services according to regular rules
dubbo>offline com.*
OK

help command

//list all commands
dubbo>help

//list the specific use case of a command 
dubbo>help online

QoS' Parameters

You can use parameters that QoS provides to config its startup. These parameters include:

Parameter	Explanation	Default
qosEnable	Activate QoS or not	true
qosPort	The port QoS would bind to	22222
qosAcceptForeignIp	Enable remote access or not	false

Attention. From 2.6.4/2.7.0, qosAcceptForeignIp is set to false by default, because it’s risky if this property is set to true. Think twice before you turn it on.

You can configure these parameters in the following ways:

System property
dubbo.properties
XML
Spring-boot auto configuration

They have priority in the following order: system property > dubbo.properties > XML > spring-boot.

System Property

-Ddubbo.application.qos.enable=true
-Ddubbo.application.qos.port=33333
-Ddubbo.application.qos.accept.foreign.ip=false

`Dubbo.properties`

Create a dubbo.properties file in this directory src/main/resources in your project, and copy the following codes into it:

dubbo.application.qos.enable=true
dubbo.application.qos.port=33333
dubbo.application.qos.accept.foreign.ip=false

XML

If you are going to config using XML, you can try this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xmlns:dubbo="http://dubbo.apache.org/schema/dubbo"
       xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
       http://dubbo.apache.org/schema/dubbo http://dubbo.apache.org/schema/dubbo/dubbo.xsd">
  <dubbo:application name="demo-provider">
    <dubbo:parameter key="qos.enable" value="true"/>
    <dubbo:parameter key="qos.accept.foreign.ip" value="false"/>
    <dubbo:parameter key="qos.port" value="33333"/>
  </dubbo:application>
  <dubbo:registry address="multicast://224.5.6.7:1234"/>
  <dubbo:protocol name="dubbo" port="20880"/>
  <dubbo:service interface="org.apache.dubbo.demo.provider.DemoService" ref="demoService"/>
  <bean id="demoService" class="org.apache.dubbo.demo.provider.DemoServiceImpl"/>
</beans>

spring-boot auto configuration

If you are developing a spring-boot application, you can configure in application.properties or application.yml:

dubbo.application.qosEnable=true
dubbo.application.qosPort=33333
dubbo.application.qosAcceptForeignIp=false
