{{< product-name >}} lets you customize your server configuration by using
`influxdb3 serve` command options or by setting environment variables.
## Configure your server
Pass configuration options to the `influxdb serve` server using either command
options or environment variables. Command options take precedence over
environment variables.
##### Example influxdb3 serve command options
<!--pytest.mark.skip-->
```sh
influxdb3 serve \
--license-email example@email.com \
--object-store file \
--data-dir ~/.influxdb3 \
--node-id NODE_ID \
--cluster-id my-cluster-01 \
--log-filter info \
--max-http-request-size 20971520 \
--aws-allow-http
```
##### Example environment variables
<!--pytest.mark.skip-->
```sh
export INFLUXDB3_ENTERPRISE_LICENSE_EMAIL=example@email.com
export INFLUXDB3_OBJECT_STORE=file
export INFLUXDB3_DB_DIR=~/.influxdb3
export INFLUXDB3_WRITER_IDENTIFIER_PREFIX=my-host
export LOG_FILTER=info
export INFLUXDB3_MAX_HTTP_REQUEST_SIZE=20971520
export AWS_ALLOW_HTTP=true
influxdb3 serve
```

- [license-file](#license-file)
- [mode](#mode)
- [node-id](#node-id)
- [object-store](#object-store)
- [query-file-limit](#query-file-limit)
#### cluster-id
Specifies the cluster identifier that prefixes the object store path for the Enterprise Catalog.
This value must be different than the [`--node-id`](#node-id) value.
| influxdb3 serve option | Environment variable |
| :--------------------- | :--------------------------------- |
| `--cluster-id` | `INFLUXDB3_ENTERPRISE_my-cluster-01` |
---
#### data-dir
For the `file` object store, defines the location {{< product-name >}} uses to store files locally.
Required when using the `file` [object store](#object-store).
| influxdb3 serve option | Environment variable |
| :--------------------- | :------------------- |
| `--data-dir` | `INFLUXDB3_DB_DIR` |
---
#### license-email
Specifies the email address to associate with your {{< product-name >}} license
and automatically responds to the interactive email prompt when the server starts.
This option is mutually exclusive with [license-file](#license-file).
| influxdb3 serve option | Environment variable |
| :--------------------- | :----------------------------------- |
| `--license-email` | `INFLUXDB3_ENTERPRISE_LICENSE_EMAIL` |
---
#### license-file
Specifies the path to a license file for {{< product-name >}}. When provided, the license
file's contents are used instead of requesting a new license.
This option is mutually exclusive with [license-email](#license-email).
| influxdb3 serve option | Environment variable |
| :--------------------- | :----------------------------------- |
| `--license-file` | `INFLUXDB3_ENTERPRISE_LICENSE_FILE` |
---
#### mode
Sets the mode to start the server in.
This option supports the following values:
- `all` _(default)_: Enables all server modes
- `ingest`: Enables only data ingest capabilities
- `query`: Enables only query capabilities
- `compact`: Enables only compaction processes
- `process`: Enables only data processing capabilities
You can specify multiple modes using a comma-delimited list (for example, `ingest,query`).
**Default:** `all`
| influxdb3 serve option | Environment variable |
| :--------------------- | :-------------------------- |
| `--mode` | `INFLUXDB3_ENTERPRISE_MODE` |
---
#### node-id
Specifies the node identifier used as a prefix in all object store file paths.
This should be unique for any hosts sharing the same object store
configuration--for example, the same bucket.
| influxdb3 serve option | Environment variable |
| :--------------------- | :--------------------------------- |
| `--node-id` | `INFLUXDB3_NODE_IDENTIFIER_PREFIX` |
---
#### object-store
Specifies which object storage to use to store Parquet files.
This option supports the following values:
- `memory` _(default)_: Effectively no object persistence
- `memory-throttled`: Like `memory` but with latency and throughput that somewhat resembles a cloud object store
- `file`: Stores objects in the local filesystem (must also set `--data-dir`)
- `s3`: Amazon S3 (must also set `--bucket`, `--aws-access-key-id`, `--aws-secret-access-key`, and possibly `--aws-default-region`)
- `google`: Google Cloud Storage (must also set `--bucket` and `--google-service-account`)
- `azure`: Microsoft Azure blob storage (must also set `--bucket`, `--azure-storage-account`, and `--azure-storage-access-key`)
| influxdb3 serve option | Environment variable |
| :--------------------- | :----------------------- |
| `--object-store` | `INFLUXDB3_OBJECT_STORE` |
---
#### query-file-limit
Limits the number of Parquet files a query can access.
If a query attempts to read more than this limit, InfluxDB returns an error.
**Default:** `432`
You can increase this limit to allow more files to be queried, but be aware of
the following side-effects:
- Degraded query performance for queries that read more Parquet files
- Increased memory usage
- Your system potentially killing the `influxdb3` process due to Out-of-Memory
(OOM) errors
- If using object storage to store data, many GET requests to access the data
(as many as 2 requests per file)
