CLUSTER_HARDWARE

The CLUSTER_HARDWARE hardware system table provides the hardware information of the server where each instance of the cluster is located.

USE information_schema;

Field description:

• TYPE: Corresponds to the TYPE field in the information_schema.cluster_info table. The optional values are tidb, pd, and tikv.
• INSTANCE: Corresponds to the INSTANCE field in the information_schema.cluster_info cluster information table.
• DEVICE_TYPE: Hardware type. Currently, you can query the cpu, memory, disk, and net types.
• DEVICE_NAME: Hardware name. The value of DEVICE_NAME varies with DEVICE_TYPE.
  • cpu: The hardware name is cpu.
  • memory: The hardware name is memory.
  • disk: The disk name.
  • net: The network card name.
• NAME: The different information names of the hardware. For example, cpu has two information names: cpu-logical-cores and cpu-physical-cores, which respectively mean logical core numbers and physical core numbers.
• VALUE: The value of the corresponding hardware information, such as the disk volume and CPU core numbers.

The following example shows how to query the CPU information using the CLUSTER_HARDWARE table:

SELECT * FROM cluster_hardware WHERE device_type='cpu' AND device_name='cpu' AND name LIKE '%cores';
