在Postgresql9.5之前的版本中,修改系统参数一般的步骤是:
1、连接到Postgresql数据库服务器;
2、打开postgresql.conf文件,找到需要修改的参数,修改参数的值为所需要的值;
3、执行restart或reload使修改生效;
还有一点比较不方便的是,不能很直观的看到需要重启才生效的参数到底生效了没有,只能把参数show出来观察是否满足预期。
在Postgresql9.5中,增加了ALTER SYSTEM命令,并且在pg_settings视图中增加了pending_restart(boolean)列,该列标识了是否在重启之后才生效,使得修改参数和查看参数是否生效都方便了很多。步骤可以简化为:
1、执行ALTER SYSTEM命令
2、执行restart或reload使修改生效;
对于脚本的支持也好了很多,而且通过ALTER SYSTEM配置的参数都会保存在postgresql.auto.conf文件中,需要清除这些配置也只需要一条命令就可以很方便的处理完成,下面有详细的解释。
ALTER SYSTEM语法
vincent=# \h ALTER SYSTEM Command: ALTER SYSTEM Description: change a server configuration parameter Syntax: ALTER SYSTEM SET configuration_parameter { TO | = } { value | 'value' | DEFAULT } ALTER SYSTEM RESET configuration_parameter ALTER SYSTEM RESET ALL |
vincent=# \h ALTER SYSTEMCommand: ALTER SYSTEMDescription: change a server configuration parameterSyntax:ALTER SYSTEM SET configuration_parameter { TO | = } { value | 'value' | DEFAULT }ALTER SYSTEM RESET configuration_parameterALTER SYSTEM RESET ALL
示例
举两个例子,一个是shared_buffers
参数,该参数需要重启生效;另一个是work_mem
参数,该参数只需要pg_ctl reload
或SELECT pg_reload_conf();
就可以生效。
通过show命令查看,当前的shared_buffers的值为128MB
# show shared_buffers; shared_buffers ---------------- 128MB (1 row) |
vincent=# show shared_buffers; shared_buffers ---------------- 128MB(1 row)
也可以直接从pg_settings表中去查
# \x Expanded display is on. # select * from pg_settings where name = 'shared_buffers'; -[ RECORD 1 ]---+------------------------------------------------------------- name | shared_buffers setting | 16384 unit | 8kB category | Resource Usage / Memory short_desc | Sets the number of shared memory buffers used by the server. extra_desc | context | postmaster vartype | integer source | configuration file min_val 16 max_val 1073741823 enumvals | boot_val 1024 reset_val 16384 sourcefile /opt/pgdev/data/postgresql.conf sourceline 115 pending_restart | f |

执行ALTER SYSTEM命令修改shared_buffers为1GB
# ALTER SYSTEM SET shared_buffers = '1GB';
ALTER SYSTEM |
vincent=# ALTER SYSTEM SET shared_buffers = '1GB';ALTER SYSTEM
查看pg_settings表,有哪些参数在等待生效:
# select name,setting,category,source,sourcefile,pending_restart from pg_settings where pending_restart = true; -]---+-------------------------------- name 16384 category / Memory file sourcefile /postgresql.conf pending_restart | t |
vincent=# select name,pending_restart from pg_settings where pending_restart = true;-[ RECORD 1 ]---+--------------------------------name | shared_buffeRSSetting | 16384category | Resource Usage / Memorysource | configuration filesourcefile | /opt/pgdev/data/postgresql.confpending_restart | t
重新启动DB
vincent@dellpad:~$ pg_ctl -D / -m fast restart |
vincent@dellpad:~$ pg_ctl -D /opt/pgdev/data/ -m fast restart
通过查询pg_settings表看到shared_buffers已经生效
| setting | category | source | sourcefile | pending_restart ----------------+---------+-------------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------------+----------------- shared_buffers 131072 / Memory file /postgresql.auto.conf | f ) |
vincent=# select name,pending_restart from pg_settings where name='shared_buffers'; name | setting | category | source | sourcefile | pending_restart ----------------+---------+-------------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------------+----------------- shared_buffers | 131072 | Resource Usage / Memory | configuration file | /opt/pgdev/data/postgresql.auto.conf | f(1 row)
如果想清除所有通过ALTER SYSTEM命令配置的参数值,执行
# ALTER SYSTEM RESET ALL;
ALTER SYSTEM |
vincent=# ALTER SYSTEM RESET ALL;ALTER SYSTEM
下面是对work_mem的修改,就不逐步解释了
# ALTER SYSTEM SET work_mem = '1MB'; ALTER SYSTEM # | unit | source | sourcefile | pending_restart ----------+---------+------+-------------------------+---------+------------+----------------- work_mem 4096 | kB | default | ) # select pg_reload_conf(); pg_reload_conf ---------------- t | pending_restart ----------+---------+------+-------------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------------+----------------- work_mem 1024 # \! cat /opt/pgdev/data/postgresql.auto.conf # Do not edit this file manually! # It will be overwritten by ALTER SYSTEM command. work_mem = '1MB' # |
