## RELOAD EMBEDDED DICTIONARIES {#query_language-system-reload-emdedded-dictionaries}
|
||
|
||
Reload all [Internal dictionaries](../../sql-reference/dictionaries/internal-dicts.md).
|
||
By default, internal dictionaries are disabled.
|
||
Always returns `Ok.` regardless of the result of the internal dictionary update.
|
||
|
||
## RELOAD DICTIONARIES {#query_language-system-reload-dictionaries}
|
||
|
||
Reloads all dictionaries that have been successfully loaded before.
|
||
By default, dictionaries are loaded lazily (see [dictionaries_lazy_load](../../operations/server-configuration-parameters/settings.md#server_configuration_parameters-dictionaries_lazy_load)), so instead of being loaded automatically at startup, they are initialized on first access through dictGet function or SELECT from tables with ENGINE = Dictionary. The `SYSTEM RELOAD DICTIONARIES` query reloads such dictionaries (LOADED).
|
||
Always returns `Ok.` regardless of the result of the dictionary update.
|
||
|
||
## RELOAD DICTIONARY {#query_language-system-reload-dictionary}
|
||
|
||
Completely reloads a dictionary `dictionary_name`, regardless of the state of the dictionary (LOADED / NOT_LOADED / FAILED).
|
||
Always returns `Ok.` regardless of the result of updating the dictionary.
|
||
The status of the dictionary can be checked by querying the `system.dictionaries` table.
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SELECT name, status FROM system.dictionaries;
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## DROP DNS CACHE {#query_language-system-drop-dns-cache}
|
||
|
||
Resets ClickHouse’s internal DNS cache. Sometimes (for old ClickHouse versions) it is necessary to use this command when changing the infrastructure (changing the IP address of another ClickHouse server or the server used by dictionaries).
|
||
|
||
For more convenient (automatic) cache management, see disable_internal_dns_cache, dns_cache_update_period parameters.
|
||
|
||
## DROP MARK CACHE {#query_language-system-drop-mark-cache}
|
||
|
||
Resets the mark cache. Used in development of ClickHouse and performance tests.
|
||
|
||
## DROP REPLICA {#query_language-system-drop-replica}
|
||
|
||
Dead replicas can be dropped using following syntax:
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SYSTEM DROP REPLICA 'replica_name' FROM TABLE database.table;
|
||
SYSTEM DROP REPLICA 'replica_name' FROM DATABASE database;
|
||
SYSTEM DROP REPLICA 'replica_name';
|
||
SYSTEM DROP REPLICA 'replica_name' FROM ZKPATH '/path/to/table/in/zk';
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Queries will remove the replica path in ZooKeeper. It is useful when the replica is dead and its metadata cannot be removed from ZooKeeper by `DROP TABLE` because there is no such table anymore. It will only drop the inactive/stale replica, and it cannot drop local replica, please use `DROP TABLE` for that. `DROP REPLICA` does not drop any tables and does not remove any data or metadata from disk.
|
||
|
||
The first one removes metadata of `'replica_name'` replica of `database.table` table.
|
||
The second one does the same for all replicated tables in the database.
|
||
The third one does the same for all replicated tables on the local server.
|
||
The fourth one is useful to remove metadata of dead replica when all other replicas of a table were dropped. It requires the table path to be specified explicitly. It must be the same path as was passed to the first argument of `ReplicatedMergeTree` engine on table creation.
|
||
|
||
## DROP UNCOMPRESSED CACHE {#query_language-system-drop-uncompressed-cache}
|
||
|
||
Reset the uncompressed data cache. Used in development of ClickHouse and performance tests.
|
||
For manage uncompressed data cache parameters use following server level settings [uncompressed_cache_size](../../operations/server-configuration-parameters/settings.md#server-settings-uncompressed_cache_size) and query/user/profile level settings [use_uncompressed_cache](../../operations/settings/settings.md#setting-use_uncompressed_cache)
|
||
|
||
## DROP COMPILED EXPRESSION CACHE {#query_language-system-drop-compiled-expression-cache}
|
||
|
||
Reset the compiled expression cache. Used in development of ClickHouse and performance tests.
|
||
Complied expression cache used when query/user/profile enable option [compile](../../operations/settings/settings.md#compile)
|
||
|
||
## FLUSH LOGS {#query_language-system-flush_logs}
|
||
|
||
Flushes buffers of log messages to system tables (e.g. system.query_log). Allows you to not wait 7.5 seconds when debugging.
|
||
This will also create system tables even if message queue is empty.
|
||
|
||
## RELOAD CONFIG {#query_language-system-reload-config}
|
||
|
||
Reloads ClickHouse configuration. Used when configuration is stored in ZooKeeeper.
|
||
|
||
## SHUTDOWN {#query_language-system-shutdown}
|
||
|
||
Normally shuts down ClickHouse (like `service clickhouse-server stop` / `kill {$pid_clickhouse-server}`)
|
||
|
||
## KILL {#query_language-system-kill}
|
||
|
||
Aborts ClickHouse process (like `kill -9 {$ pid_clickhouse-server}`)
|
||
|
||
## Managing Distributed Tables {#query-language-system-distributed}
|
||
|
||
ClickHouse can manage [distributed](../../engines/table-engines/special/distributed.md) tables. When a user inserts data into these tables, ClickHouse first creates a queue of the data that should be sent to cluster nodes, then asynchronously sends it. You can manage queue processing with the [STOP DISTRIBUTED SENDS](#query_language-system-stop-distributed-sends), [FLUSH DISTRIBUTED](#query_language-system-flush-distributed), and [START DISTRIBUTED SENDS](#query_language-system-start-distributed-sends) queries. You can also synchronously insert distributed data with the [insert_distributed_sync](../../operations/settings/settings.md#insert_distributed_sync) setting.
|
||
|
||
### STOP DISTRIBUTED SENDS {#query_language-system-stop-distributed-sends}
|
||
|
||
Disables background data distribution when inserting data into distributed tables.
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SYSTEM STOP DISTRIBUTED SENDS [db.]<distributed_table_name>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### FLUSH DISTRIBUTED {#query_language-system-flush-distributed}
|
||
|
||
Forces ClickHouse to send data to cluster nodes synchronously. If any nodes are unavailable, ClickHouse throws an exception and stops query execution. You can retry the query until it succeeds, which will happen when all nodes are back online.
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SYSTEM FLUSH DISTRIBUTED [db.]<distributed_table_name>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### START DISTRIBUTED SENDS {#query_language-system-start-distributed-sends}
|
||
|
||
Enables background data distribution when inserting data into distributed tables.
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SYSTEM START DISTRIBUTED SENDS [db.]<distributed_table_name>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Managing MergeTree Tables {#query-language-system-mergetree}
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
### STOP MERGES {#query_language-system-stop-merges}

|
||

|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SYSTEM STOP MERGES [ON VOLUME <volume_name> | [db.]merge_tree_family_table_name]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
!!! note "Note"
|
||
`DETACH / ATTACH` table will start background merges for the table even in case when merges have been stopped for all MergeTree tables before.
|
||
|
||
### START MERGES {#query_language-system-start-merges}
|
||
|
||

||
|
||
### STOP TTL MERGES {#query_language-stop-ttl-merges}
|
||
|
||
Provides possibility to stop background delete old data according to [TTL expression](../../engines/table-engines/mergetree-family/mergetree.md#table_engine-mergetree-ttl) for tables in the MergeTree family:
|
||
Return `Ok.` even table doesn’t exists or table have not MergeTree engine. Return error when database doesn’t exists:

|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SYSTEM START TTL MERGES [[db.]merge_tree_family_table_name]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### STOP MOVES {#query_language-stop-moves}
|
||
|
||

|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### START MOVES {#query_language-start-moves}

|
||

|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### STOP REPLICATED SENDS {#query_language-system-start-replicated-sends}

|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### STOP REPLICATION QUEUES {#query_language-system-stop-replication-queues}
|
||
|
||
Provides possibility to stop background fetch tasks from replication queues which stored in Zookeeper for tables in the `ReplicatedMergeTree` family. Possible background tasks types - merges, fetches, mutation, DDL statements with ON CLUSTER clause:
|
||
|
||
``` sql
