Re: removal from list

the database (Berkeley DB is used) backend for the majordomo2 lists isn't
the most stable, so we've been having periodic corruption problems where
we have to rebuild it ... the problem is that the rebuild process doesn't
seem to be aware of unsubscribe/set commands that were issued *after* the
initial subscribe, so everyone gets back on ;(

If you are mis-configured, or on the list when you shouldn't be, please
re-unsubscribe and/or issue the set command, to get yourself back to the
format you were in ...

Something weird is going on. All of a sudden yesterday I started receiving
individual posts from the list (pgsql-admin) but I'm subscribed to the
digest (and I still am). Apparently, others started getting posts even
though they are not on the list anymore. This happened one other time to
me a few weeks ago. Could this be a majordomo bug or someone affected a
setting?

Thanks,

Do you volunteer to dive into the Majordomo2 code and extend it to use
PgSQL? i started, but time didn't allow me to get very far with it, but
if you have the time and wish to do so, I have commit access to the
repository to get the changes in place ...

I still have a few things to work out, and if you don't use sublists, you

Well, as I said, it works perfectly well on my dev box if you don't use
sublist, because Mj2 use hard coded opendirs to find out if they exists.
(which is not always "the right way to do it" of course.) This does not
count the Xowners GLOBAL sublists which is not tested because it should
always exist :)
As I say, it works, but I would not want to be the end of postgresql.org
mailing lists in case there is a but somewhere :)

I have heard of it but I've not heard of any reports on these lists of
how well it works. If you (or anyone else) gives it a spin please try to
post an account to the list and/or if you send me the info it could
probably make its way on to techdocs.

Re: Clustering Postgres

Robert,

I am currently evaluating PolyServe Matrix Server which is a clustering
solution including a clustered file system (mounted read-write
everywhere).

Anything special anyone wants to know? I'm using PostgreSQL 7.4.2 in
a Linux cluster.

Pro 100Mbps type NIC's, 1 Qlogic 2310 HBA on a 1GBs SAN using a Candera

Once I have it running and I've run the necessary tests for myself
I could run a few tests for anyone else who is interested. Deadline
is June 18th when either I scrap it and try a different solution or
we have to buy in which case I'll need it for our production databases.

Re: Clustering Postgres

We'd be very interested in the performance, especially with the disk
being used as in interconnect (I assume that that is being used to
simulate global shared memory?)

We did have a talk with the folks over at http://www.linuxlabs.com/clustgres

They were honest enough to say that even with the Dolphon interconnects, that writing would be slower than usual. We have not made a complete decision on that yet, but are still looking at alternatives.

It seems that Clustres might be a good solution. They use a SAN, the Dolphin interconnects, and multiple diskless nodes. In theory I am sure it works, but this is one of the chicken/egg problems where we want to see it in general use first before committing :-)

Re: Clustering Postgres

Some basics on how easy it is to install/configure and some before/after type
benchmarks showing how it affected performance. Perferrably you could
measure simple vs. complex queries as well as update vs. insert performance.
If you're really ambitious you could try running one of the tpc style
benchmarks on the system, check the archives or the osdl site for more info
on getting these up and running.
