[Maria-discuss] CONNECT version maturity
by Federico Razzoli 17 Dec '15

17 Dec '15

Hi all In this page: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/connect/ I see that CONNECT 1.03.0007 (that is in MariaDB 10.1.5) is gamma-quality, but 1.04.0003 (that is in 10.1.9) is beta. I am confused. Is this a documentation mistake? Or maybe many new bugs were found? Regards Federico

[Maria-discuss] max key length in import
by Warren H. Prince 17 Dec '15

17 Dec '15

I’m considering moving from MySql to MariaDB so I did a dump today and attempted an import. It failed with the “Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes” error. I dealt with this in MySql and knew to change file format to Barracuda. I zapped the partial import, did a fresh mysql_install_db, restarted the service and tried again to no avail. To confirm my settings immediately after the failure: MariaDB [(none)]> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'innodb_file_%'; +--------------------------+-----------+ | Variable_name | Value | +--------------------------+-----------+ | innodb_file_format | Barracuda | | innodb_file_format_check | ON | | innodb_file_format_max | Barracuda | | innodb_file_per_table | ON | +--------------------------+—————+ Does anyone have any suggestions? The dump is 795M compressed so it’s difficult to find the exact place where the problem is (I used zcat for the import). My distribution is: 10.0.22-MariaDB running on Ubuntu 15.04 Thanks in advance.

[Maria-discuss] Replication variables in my.cnf seem ignored if master connection does not exist
by Игорь Пашев 16 Dec '15

16 Dec '15

MariaDB 10.0.22 I saw weird things a couple of times: I start clean MariaDB with theses options in the configuration file: foo.replicate_wild_do_table = foo_live.% foo.replicate_ignore_table = foo_live.schema_updates Then I execute RESET SLAVE "foo" ALL just to be sure there is no such connection. Then I import the dump of master, and set master options like host, user, password, etc. Then I execute START SLAVE "foo" Then SHOW SLAVE "foo" reveals empty 'Replicate_Wild_Do_Table' and 'Replicate_Ignore_Table'. (And replication shortly breaks, because foo_live.schema_updates wasn't imported). I can fix this by restarting MariaDB. I'd expect the foo.replicate_* options are taking effect anytime. As a work-around I'd set those options dynamically after dump is imported. (I will fill MDEV in case it is confirmed as a bug)

[Maria-discuss] MariaDB Performance and Diagnostic Tools
by FERRETTI, ANDY 15 Dec '15

15 Dec '15

I'm looking for recommendations on MariaDB Performance Analysis tools. 1. I try MySQL workbench, but much of the capability is disabled. I get an error when I click on the Dashboard "This feature requires MySQL version 5.6.6 or newer". 2. I'm wondering if there are some good scripts to help identify key performance metrics from the performance_schema. I'd like to see a capability similar to an Oracle AWR report. I spent a fair amount of time doing google searches, and found some information on the performance_schema: https://php-built.com/enabling-performance-monitoring-for-mariadb-and-mysql/ , but I really think there should be something better.

[Maria-discuss] Galera Cluster: Cluster Blocked, when one node down?
by Benoit Panizzon 14 Dec '15

14 Dec '15

Hello We use MariaDB Galera Cluster for our email service platform. We decided to use Galera to create a high availability platform. After a year of operation, we start to relaize, that somehow Galera Failures seem to be the most common cause for outages we had in the past. So I wonder if others operating galera clusters also observe this situation: All our services using DB connections use a DNS round-robin name, to connect to one of our three galera instances. While testing this setup, we usualy killed one instance, or disconnected the node from the network to simulate an outage. In this situation, this works as expected. The client connect to the two remaining nodes, no service outage. When the node is re-started it is being re-synced quickly and service with three nodes is restored. Now we experienced a few galera cluster fails, which seem to happen this way: One of the nodes is getting a lot of load. DDOS Attacks, Memory Leaks or similar, which just renders the whole physical machine laggy for a short time. So the affected MariaDB node is being thrown out of the cluster by the two other nodes, probably for not syncing fast enough anymore. But as the node is not 'down' completely, it still accepts connections from the DB clients, but does not reply to them and seems to remain in a 'db locked' situation. Strangely this then also affects the two remaining nodes, who also go into 'locked' mode and do not reply to queries on the time expected by the application anymore. Of course this then causes more DB clients (IMAP, SMTP-Auth, etc) to spawn and to create DB connections worsening the whole situation. The situation seemingly can only be resolved by shuting down the MariaDB node that got thrown out of the cluster. Then the situations normalizes with the two remaining nodes and the third one can be restarted. Is this expected behaviour? Is there a way to tell a MariaDB node that got excluded from the cluster to shut himself down completely so it does NOT accept any more connections from clients, blocking the whole service?

[Maria-discuss] out of memory linux kill and mysqld_multi
by Roberto Spadim 11 Dec '15

11 Dec '15

Hi guys, could we include a configuration at mysqld_mult and mysqld_safe? at linux killing the mysqld process is a big problem, i prefer leave it as the last process to kill check this post : http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/servers-storage-dev/oom-killer-1… in this case oracle is the last tprocess to kill they use the /proc kernel interface to set the oom_adj i don't read the mysqld_safe and mysqld_multi, but could we include this at my.cnf? my last crash was a big trouble, if kernel killed the others process before mysql maybe the mysqld couldn't be killed thanks guys i will create a MDEV about it -- Roberto Spadim

[Maria-discuss] Queries Not Completing After Backup
by Brad Jorgensen 11 Dec '15

11 Dec '15

We have a three node (db1, db2, db3) galera cluster with MariaDB 10.0.22 on CentOS 6.7. A couple days ago I upgraded to 10.1.9. Xtrabackup (2.3.2) is run every night on each node at 1am, 2am, and 3am respectively. Before the backup starts, the node is desynced. The first night after upgrading to 10.1.9, the problem began. All connections were going to db1 until the backup started when db1 was removed from the routing pool and new connections began going to db2. At that time there was little traffic aside from the backup; much of it is probably monitoring queries. Our monitoring shows that running threads went from about 2 just before the backup finished around 1:32am to about 150 just after. At the same time, the running threads on db2 went from 1 to 10. After the backup completed, all new connections were going to db1 again. The running threads on db1 continued to slowly grow until the queries that are stuck took up all of the server processes on our application servers and we were alerted around 3:50am. I checked the process list and almost all of the queries were in the "query end" state and I think they were all write queries. I tried to kill most of them but they just stayed in the same state. I restarted db2 to try to kick the cluster without losing data. I had to force the shutdown since three threads never ended after about 10 minutes of waiting. The running threads on db1 returned to normal. db2 had do do a full SST which took until 6:05 to complete. At that time, the running processes on db1 began to increase again. When db2 was back up I downgraded to 10.1.22 and rejoined it to the cluster. I tried to restart db1, but it needed a full SST so I left it down. A bit later I took down db3 to downgrade it, too at that went fine. The cluster was fine through the day during normal business operation. The next night only db2 and db3 were up and were running 10.0.22. What appears to be the same problem started at 3:31am, when xtrabackup paused galera ("Provider paused at 8c53b634-9514-11e4-b8bd-dab05673fb36:875650526") on db3 for the backup. At that time the running threads on db2 shot up and slowly increased until I shut it down at 6:28. I had to kill it again due to three threads on ending. db3 showed nothing unusual in the logs. I got the innodb engine status from db2 three times a few minutes apart before I restarted; they are attached. Additionally, I attached an excerpt from the logs on db2 and db3 during the second incident and the my.cnf from one of the servers, it's basically the same for the others. I'm working on getting a clean set of logs from the first incident, but from what I initially saw, they are basically the same as the second set of logs. I'm ready if the problem arises again and I'll try to get more information including SHOW GLOBAL STATUS. Our environment hasn't changed for at least a month and the issue first appeared after upgrading to 10.1.9, but since it didn't go away after downgrading, I'm not sure where the issue is. I found a few mentions of what might be the same problem: http://marialog.archivist.info/2015-04-03.txt https://bugs.launchpad.net/percona-xtradb-cluster/+bug/1149755
