Procedure

  2. In the navigation tree on the left, choose Management > Client Connections.
  3. In the Download Client and Driver area, select the tools corresponding to the cluster version based on the computer OS and download them.

    You can download the following tools:

    • CLI client: The gsql tool package contains the gsql client tool, GDS (parallel data loading tool), gs_dump, gs_dumpall, and gs_restore tools.
    • Data Studio GUI client
    • DSC migration tool

    The gsql and Data Studio client tools have multiple historical versions. You can click Historical Version to download the tools based on the cluster version. GaussDB(DWS) clusters are compatible with earlier versions of gsql and Data Studio tools. You are advised to download the matching tool version based on the cluster version.
