About PostgreSQL DBA. Linux system administrator. PostgreSQL-Consulting.com: • 24/7 support.
• Audit, performance optimizations. • Consulting and Training. • Monitoring and Emergency. • Capacity planning. Slides: https://goo.gl/awmZ2H
Agenda RDBMS on Linux, why? Databases and Resources. OS subsystems.
CPU, Process scheduling, Power saving policies. Memory, VM, NUMA, Huge pages. Storage, File Systems, Input/Output. Other misc.
Why Linux? Linux is a good choice: • Active development
& Community support. • A lot of features & Fast implementation. • Stable & Mature & Durable.
Databases & Resources Concurrency Query speed Sort, group, hash,... OS
page cache DB buffer pool Local process cache DB data files Transaction Log Cold start CPU Memory Storage
Databases & Resources CPU Scheduling NUMA Power Saving Virtual Memory
NUMA Huge Pages File Systems Storage I/O CPU Memory Storage
Resources CPU scheduler. Virtual memory and NUMA. Huge pages. File
systems. Storage IO. Power saving policy. Others.
CPU scheduling CPU scheduler responsible for proper processes planning: Sysctl:
• kernel.sched_migration_cost_ns = 5000000 (default: 500000). • kernel.sched_autogroup_enabled = 0 (default: 1). http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/

http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_38#head-59575a6aeafa38490226a560ee02de89829a5b20 Be aware on Ubuntu: 12.04 #1055222 and 14.04 #1422016. Use noautogroup kernel param instead of sysctl.conf.
Virtual Memory What is it? Allocator, Caching, Dirty pages and
Writeback.
Virtual Memory
Virtual Memory Sysctl: vm.dirty_background_ratio & vm.dirty_ratio = disable it. vm.dirty_background_bytes
& vm.dirty_bytes = depends on ... RAID cache size, 64MB/128MB otherwise
Virtual Memory Out-of-memory & OOM-Killer Sysctl: vm.swappiness = 1 (default:
60)
NUMA S — Socket C — CPU core M —
Memory bank
NUMA BIOS: enable memory node interleaving. Kernel boot: numa=off. numactl
utility. Sysctl: • vm.zone_reclaim_mode = 0 (default: 0). • kernel.numa_balancing = 0 (default: 0).
Huge Pages Huge pages vs. Transparent huge pages. Huge pages
are supported by many RDBMS. Always disable transparent huge pages.
Huge Pages Huge pages vs. Transparent huge pages. Huge pages
are supported by many RDBMS. Always disable transparent huge pages. /etc/rc.local: • echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled • echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag
Filesystems Ext3 vs Ext4 vs XFS: what is better? Filesystem
Barriers.
Filesystems Ext3 vs Ext4 vs XFS: what is better? Filesystem
Barriers. Disable Write Cache: • hdparm -W0 /dev/device • MegaCli64 -LDSetProp -DisDskCache -Lall -aALL
Filesystems Ext3 vs Ext4 vs XFS: what is better? Filesystem
Barriers. Disable Write Cache: • hdparm -W0 /dev/device • MegaCli64 -LDSetProp -DisDskCache -Lall -aALL Hardware RAID + BBU = barrier=0 (disable). Software RAID = barrier=1 (enable).

Storage IO SATA/SAS vs SSD. IO elevators.
Storage IO SATA/SAS vs SSD. IO elevators: • noop: SSD,
PCIe SSD, hi-end storages. • deadline: RAID, SATA/SAS. • cfq: good default. • none (multi-queue block IO): SSD, PCIe SSD.
Storage IO SATA/SAS vs SSD. IO elevators: • noop: SSD,
PCIe SSD, hi-end storages. • deadline: RAID, SATA/SAS. • cfq: good default. • none (multi-queue block IO): SSD, PCIe SSD. # echo 'elevator_name' > /sys/block/<device>/queue/scheduler kernel boot: elevator=<name> /sys/block/*/queue/: rotational, rq_affinity, read_ahead_kb
Power Saving Policy Drivers: acpi_cpufreq vs. intel_pstate. scaling_governor.
Power Saving Policy Drivers: acpi_cpufreq vs. intel_pstate. scaling_governor: • /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors
• /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpufreq/scaling_governor
Power Saving Policy Drivers: acpi_cpufreq vs. intel_pstate. scaling_governor: • /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors
• /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpufreq/scaling_governor acpi_cpufreq + performance. intel_pstate + powersave.
Misc: Clocksources What is clocksource? acpi_pm vs. hpet vs. tsc.
/sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/available_clocksource. /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource.
Summary Linux is a good choice for RDBMS: Modern, Universal,
Flexible, Stable. Adapt Linux for your workloads. Test → Change → Test → Commit/Rollback.
