PUT /daemon/configs/{MACHINE}

Request Path Parameters

Name	Type	Necessity	Description
MACHINE	string	Required	Hostname or IP address of the machine that serves the Backup Daemon.

Request Query Parameters

The following query parameters are optional:

Name

Type

Necessity

Description

Default

pretty

boolean

Optional

Flag indicating whether the response body should be in a prettyprint format.

false

envelope

boolean

Optional

Flag that indicates whether or not to wrap the response in an envelope.

Some API clients cannot access the HTTP response headers or status code. To remediate this, set envelope=true in the query.

For endpoints that return one result, the response body includes:

Name	Description
`status`	HTTP response code
`content`	Expected response body

false

Request Body Parameters

Name	Type	Necessity	Description
`assignmentEnabled`	boolean	Optional	Flag indicating whether this Backup Daemon can be assigned backup jobs.
`backupJobsEnabled`	boolean	Optional	Flag indicating whether this Backup Daemon can be used to backup databases.
`configured`	boolean	Optional	Flag indicating whether this Backup Daemon is ready to use.
`garbageCollectionEnabled`	boolean	Optional	Flag indicating whether this Backup Daemon has garbage collection set.
`headDiskType`	string	Optional	Type of disk used to store the head directory. The accepted values for this option are: `HDD` `SSD`
`id`	string	Required	Unique identifier of this Backup Daemon.
`labels`	array of strings	Optional	Array of tags to manage which backup jobs Ops Manager can assign to which Backup Daemons. Setting these tags limits which backup jobs this Backup Daemon can process. If omitted, this Backup Daemon can only process backup jobs for projects that do not use labels to filter their jobs.
`machine`	object	Required	Backup Daemon host and its head directories.
`machine.headRootDirectory`	string	Optional	Root-relative path of the head directory on this Backup Daemon host. This directory must end with a slash (`/`). If you omit the slash, the Backup Daemon generates a Java Exception error.
`machine.machine`	string	Required	Hostname or IP address of the Backup Daemon host.
`numWorkers`	number	Optional	Number of worker processes that can perform tasks (i.e. backup, restore, or groom) for the Backup Daemon.
`resourceUsageEnabled`	boolean	Optional	Flag indicating whether this Backup Daemon has its resource usage monitored.
`restoreQueryableJobsEnabled`	boolean	Optional	Flag indicating whether this Backup Daemon can perform queryable restores.
