The story that old and reliable utilities sometimes need troubleshooting on new OS (CentOS 8)

-

 Hello community,

Gonchik Tsymzhitov is in touch. Today, I want to share with you a short story about how trustworthy tools unexpectedly break on new operating systems, and how easy they are to be repaired.

So, we all know that centos.rip, after a very period of time, so I am migrating everywhere to Oracle Linux 8.

My favorite tool for setting up PostgreSQL servers is postgresqltuner.pl, which I have already covered in this article.

Setting up as usual is very simple:

# dnf install -y perl-DBD-Pg
# wget -O postgresqltuner.pl https://postgresqltuner.pl
# chmod +x postgresqltuner.pl

But this time, when I ran the script, I encountered such a problem after command,

# ./postgresqltuner.pl --ssd
Can't locate Memoize.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Memoize module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5) at ./postgresqltuner.pl line 262.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./postgresqltuner.pl line 262.

I have been looking for a solution on the Internet for a long time, but since I did not find it, I share the coveted team that solves the problem right away.

# dnf install perl

Then, as usual, start and enjoy.

# ./postgresqltuner.pl  --ssd

This tip works great on RHEL-based OS such as CentOS 8, RHEL8 and tested on Oracle Linux 8.

 

Have a good day! 

 

Cheers,

Gonchik Tsymzhitov

In that small article, you can find how to install the agent of Glowroot. Installation of the application is quite simple on agents, and this article shows a scheme for working with a built-in collector, but for industrial installations we use it with a bundle with elasticsearch. The installation can be both for individual nodes and so for the central collector. In this case, consider for a separate node. Prerequisites: {jira_home} - is location of Jira home directory. {jira_installation_directory} is the location of Jira installation directory.   Steps: Downloading the installer wget -c https://github.com/glowroot/glowroot/releases/download/v0.13.6/glowroot-0.13.6-dist.zip To check, create a directory via command   mkdir -p /{jira_home}/glowroot/tmp Let the Jira process write and set ownership for simplicity, but it is recommended that you just give the write ability to the owner of the Jira process. chown -R jira: /{jira_home}/glowroot We additionally set the argument to setenv.sh in

  Hi!  Gonchik is in touch. Today I would like to get a little bit of help from you related SQL indexes on your Jira installation (Data Center, Server edition does not matter).    I would like to share a story about  PostgreSQL  and  Jira 8.13.3  ( JSD 4.13.3 )  release.  In that post I will be happy if you answer and comment about your instance indexes, as those info can help to improve the existing situation of heavy indexes.  Typically, it starts from improvement of configuration (e.g. using  https://postgresqltuner.pl/ ),  then query analyzing, adding indexes, after removing as heavy one (shortly  https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Index_Maintenance ) :)    I use like this query in PostgreSQL: SELECT s.schemaname,        s.relname AS tablename,        s.indexrelname AS indexname,        pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size(s.indexrelid::regclass)) AS index_size,        idx_tup_read,         idx_tup_fetch,         idx_scan FROM pg_catalog.pg_stat_user_indexes s JOIN pg_catalog.pg_index i O

  Hello community, Gonchik Tsymzhitov is in touch. Today, I would like to share with you a short story about postgresqltuner.pl in usage.  So from previous articles I hope you configured the PostgreSQL server and postgresqltuner.pl.  After executing command, ./postgresqltuner.pl --ssd for ssd disks server. You can see like this output: postgresqltuner.pl version 1.0.1 [OK]      I can invoke executables Connecting to /var/run/postgresql:5432 database template1 as user 'postgres'...
