Common questions about connecting and running Arpe IO Fasttransfer.
What does the FastTransfer MCP server do?
It provides an MCP interface to FastTransfer, a high-performance tool for parallel data transfer between databases. You can configure transfer jobs, set execution timeouts, and monitor logs through the server.
Do I need the FastTransfer binary installed to use this MCP server?
The FASTTRANSFER_PATH environment variable is optional. Without it, the server runs in preview-only mode, letting you plan transfers but not execute them. Install the binary and set the path to enable full functionality.
How long can a data transfer run before timing out?
The default timeout is 1800 seconds (30 minutes). You can adjust this via the FASTTRANSFER_TIMEOUT environment variable to match your dataset size and network speed.
Where are transfer execution logs stored?
Logs are written to the directory specified by FASTTRANSFER_LOG_DIR, which defaults to ./logs. You can also control verbosity with the LOG_LEVEL environment variable (DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR).
Can I use this server to preview a transfer without actually running it?
Yes. If you don't set FASTTRANSFER_PATH, the server operates in preview-only mode, allowing you to validate transfer configurations and schemas before execution.
