Summary

The Aerospike Admin tool has been expanded with new features in recent releases, including dynamic configuration with tab-completion, namespace and set truncation, roster management, and job management. The manage config command allows users to change configuration parameters and logging levels, create and delete XDR datacenters, add/remove nodes from datacenters, and add/remove namespaces from datacenters. Tab-completion for the manage config command provides a way to quickly change configuration settings without having to memorize all possible options. The new manage truncate command allows users to truncate namespaces and sets, record truncation with a last-update-time (LUT) before a given date, and undo in-progress truncations. Roster management has been added, allowing users to add/remove nodes from the pending roster and set the pending roster to equal the observed nodes list. The new manage jobs command allows users to view and kill scan jobs, making it easier to manage cluster jobs. These new features aim to make Aerospike Admin a more powerful and user-friendly tool for managing Aerospike databases.
