[Maria-discuss] New Question: Aria System Variables: aria_block_size
by AskMonty KB 03 Mar '16

03 Mar '16

Hello, A new question has been asked in "Aria" by paul.pech_41353. Please answer it at http://mariadb.com/kb/en/aria-system-variables-aria_block_size/ as the person asking the question may not be subscribed to the mailing list. -------------------------------- Hi Are there any guidelines on how to decide what block sizes to use for Aria index pages? We've just switched from MySQL and MyISAM to MariaDB and Aria and noticed a significant drop in performance when full table scans are necessary. In our environment we have 10.000+ databases each with about 20 tables. Each database is usually smaller than 30 - 40 MB (90% of this is contained in roughly 3-4 tables, all other tables usually contain just a couple of rows). Am I correct in assuming that in this case (many comparatively small tables) a small block size (say 2048) could help to improve performance, while for huge tables a larger block size (the default value) is recommended? Any other tips on how to fine tune Aria in particular and MariaDB in general for our use case are highly appreciated. Thanks for a great product and a well written documentation! Yours Paul -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://mariadb.com/kb/en/aria-system-variables-aria_block_size/

[Maria-discuss] New Question: MariaDB removes all users on restart
by AskMonty KB 03 Mar '16

03 Mar '16

Hello, A new question has been asked in "MariaDB FAQ" by andrew_kilburn_g. Please answer it at http://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-removes-all-users-on-restart/ as the person asking the question may not be subscribed to the mailing list. -------------------------------- I am new to MariaDB and have set 3 instances up on 3 different servers. I customised the variables using the MySQL MariaDB client and all was well with the world. However, when coming to restart the machine which the MariaDB databases are currently installed on, it set all the variables back to default values. This is very strange and I'm not sure why this has occurred. After some investigating I found that I can set the variables permanently by changing the My.config file. So this is what I did. My MariaDB instance had 2 users, the original root and the new user which I created. When I restarted the machine after changing the config file by only adding 3 variables, I found that it removed both users and I now cannot connect to MariaDB using any of the users which have been created. I've done this on two machines and now I only have access to one! Why is this? Is this some sort of bug? How am I supposed to get back in? -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-removes-all-users-on-restart/

[Maria-discuss] Fwd: New Question: Non-blocking calls from PHP
by Justin Swanhart 27 Feb '16

27 Feb '16

oops, didn't copy the list. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Justin Swanhart <greenlion(a)gmail.com> Date: Wed, Feb 24, 2016 at 11:34 AM Subject: Re: [Maria-discuss] New Question: Non-blocking calls from PHP To: Federico Razzoli <federico_raz(a)yahoo.it> Hi, For now, if you want FIFO, just change the ORDER BY q_id DESC to ORDER BY q_id. The execution is parallel, it shouldn't starve queries. I will probably change this anyway by changing the structure of the `q` table to have a primary key that sorts by the completion status and a unique key for the auto_increment columns, then it can naturally be FIFO without causing lock contention due to locking scanned rows in InnoDB. The workaround for GET DIAGNOSTICS is to change it to not use that and just put a generic error in the table. You can't use conditional version syntax in stored procs, and I don't want to have two different versions of the script, since everyone really should be using 5.6+ or MariaDB 5.5+ IMHO. I will remove count_running_threads, it isn't really needed because the metadata locks held by the stored proc enforce that no more than 'thread_count' threads can run. I will remove that code shortly. I wasn't using metadata locks when I started writing the tool. This will remove the dependency on global variables and the processlist. It is version 1.0 and is still experimental :) Thank you for the feedback. --Justin On Wed, Feb 24, 2016 at 10:58 AM, Federico Razzoli <federico_raz(a)yahoo.it> wrote: > Yes, GET DIAGNOSTICS is in 5.5 (and anyway, a workaround for older > versions should be possible, correct?). > > Some comments: > > 1) The LIFO tables sounds to me a little dangerous.

[Maria-discuss] New Question: Audit parameters getting reset after MySQL DB restart
by AskMonty KB 24 Feb '16

24 Feb '16

Hello, A new question has been asked in "MariaDB Community" by sanjaykumar.raghavendra. Please answer it at http://mariadb.com/kb/en/audit-parameters-getting-reset-after-mysql-db-rest… as the person asking the question may not be subscribed to the mailing list. -------------------------------- Hi I am working on automating the installation and configuration of MySQL for faster deployment. As part of this, I enable the Audit parameters dynamically which works fine. However after the instance restart, I noticed that the parameters are getting reset to their factory defaults which disables auditing. For instance, server_audit_logging gets reset to OFF. Has anyone come across this? How do I persist my settings across instance restarts? Thanks -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://mariadb.com/kb/en/audit-parameters-getting-reset-after-mysql-db-rest…
