Warehouse Settings

Use Warehouse Settings to manage a warehouse after it is created, including its name, maintenance window, security controls, and deletion. Some settings are available only for SaaS or BYOC warehouses and may vary by cloud platform.

To open the Warehouse Settings page:

  1. Log in to the VeloDB Cloud console.
  2. In the upper-left corner, select the warehouse that you want to use.
  3. In the left navigation pane, under MORE, click Warehouse Settings.

Switch the active warehouse

Use the warehouse selector in the upper-left corner to switch the active warehouse.

The selector lists the warehouses you can access. For each warehouse, it shows the name, status, and warehouse ID. Click Copy to copy the ID.

Use the search box to find a warehouse, then click its name to switch to it. Click All Warehouses to open the warehouse list, or click Create New Warehouse to create one.

Note:

A warehouse ID contains 8 characters. The first 4 identify the cloud platform and region, for example, AWVA for AWS US East (N. Virginia). The final 4 characters are a random alphanumeric suffix.

General

Warehouse name

In General, enter a new warehouse name, then press Enter to save it.

Note:

Warehouse names must be unique within the organization and contain no more than 32 characters. Use only letters, numbers, underscores (_), and hyphens (-).

Custom tags

For BYOC warehouses, you can view, add, or update custom tags to organize and identify cloud resources in your own cloud account.

In General, find Tags, then click Manage Tags to open the Custom Tags drawer.

When you add a tag, select one of the following scopes:

ScopeDescription
Warehouse and ClustersApplies the tag to both warehouse-level resources and cluster resources.
ClusterApplies the tag only to the selected cluster resources.

Enter the Tag Key and Tag Value, then click Confirm.

Note:

  • You can add up to 40 custom tags.
  • If a tag with the same key already exists on the cloud platform, the new value overwrites the existing value.
  • Some tags are generated by VeloDB Cloud. Do not modify or delete system-generated tags on the cloud platform.

Maintenance

Version upgrade

The Version Upgrade section shows the current core version and whether a newer version is available in the warehouse's cloud region. Click View Upgrades to review available versions and upgrade options.

For upgrade details, see Upgrade Core Version.

Maintenance window

The maintenance window is the preferred time period for scheduled maintenance and automatic updates. Set it to an off-peak period for the applications that use the warehouse.

The default window is Everyday 10:00 ~ 11:00 UTC+08:00. Change it in Warehouse Settings to match your off-peak hours.

Each warehouse has its own maintenance window. Start and end times are hour-accurate; end time must be later than start time.

Manage insights and diagnostics

Use Insights & diagnostics to manage data used to monitor warehouse health, troubleshoot issues, and power Advisor recommendations.

ItemDescription
MetricsWarehouse health, resource usage, runtime counters, and availability signals. Metrics are required for reliability and support.
LogsDiagnostic logs for failed jobs, service errors, ingestion issues, and performance troubleshooting.
AI AssistantDocumentation Q&A and slow SQL / query analysis diagnostics for the warehouse.

Use the toggles in this section to manage optional diagnostic data. Required items cannot be disabled.

Security

Warehouse admin password

The Warehouse Admin Password is the password for the admin database user. Database clients and applications use it to connect to the warehouse. It is different from your VeloDB Cloud console account password.

Click Change Password to set or reset it.

Note:

The password must be 8-20 characters. It can contain letters, numbers, and the special characters ~!@#$%^&*()_+{}[]:;<>,.?-.

Public IP allowlist

The Public IP Allowlist controls which source public IP addresses can use the public access path. For SaaS warehouses, it controls public warehouse connections and console data-plane operations. For BYOC warehouses, it controls console data-plane operations, not direct warehouse connections through your cloud network.

Click Edit IP Allowlist to add or remove source IPs and CIDR blocks.

Warning:

The default entry is 0.0.0.0/0, which allows access from anywhere. Remove it and add your real source IPs as soon as possible to reduce exposure.

For public access setup, see Public Link for SaaS warehouses or Connect to a BYOC Warehouse for BYOC warehouses.

For encryption settings, see Warehouse Encryption.

Delete a warehouse

Delete the warehouse only when you no longer need it. You must remove its clusters before deletion. Deleting a warehouse permanently removes its data and cannot be undone. For a BYOC warehouse, complete the required cloud infrastructure teardown after deletion.

For the deletion procedure and BYOC infrastructure teardown, see Delete a Warehouse.
