Customize your cluster configuration
Use environment variables to customize configuration options for components in your InfluxDB cluster. Environment variables are set on a per-component basis.
In your AppInstance resource, configure environment variables for individual
components in the
spec.package.spec.components.<component>.template.containers.iox.env property.
The following InfluxDB Clustered components are configurable:
ingesterquerierroutercompactorgarbage-collector
In the env property, structure each environment variable as a key-value pair
where the key is the environment variable name and the value is the environment
variable value (string-formatted)–for example:
apiVersion: kubecfg.dev/v1alpha1
kind: AppInstance
metadata:
name: influxdb
namespace: influxdb
spec:
package:
# ...
spec:
components:
router:
template:
containers:
iox:
env:
INFLUXDB_IOX_MAX_HTTP_REQUESTS: '4500'
INFLUXDB_IOX_MAX_HTTP_REQUEST_SIZE: '52428800'
In your values.yaml, configure environment variables for individual components
in the components.<component>.template.containers.iox.env property.

Configurable settings
For information about what settings are configurable and their associated environment variables, contact InfluxData Support.
Apply the changes to your cluster
Use kubectl or helm (if using the InfluxDB Clustered Helm chart), to apply
the changes to your cluster:
kubectl apply \
--filename myinfluxdb.yml \
--namespace influxdb
helm upgrade \
influxdata/influxdb3-clustered \
-f ./values.yml \
--namespace influxdb
