SQL Statement Concurrency Control Function

gs_add_workload_rule(rule_type, rule_name, databases, start_time, end_time, max_workload, option_val)

Description: Creates an SQL statement concurrency control rule. Users must have the SYSADMIN permission. This function can be executed only on the CN.

Parameters: For details, see Table 1 gs_add_workload_rule parameters.

Return type: int8

Table 1 gs_add_workload_rule parameters

Parameter

Type

Description

Value Range

rule_type

text

Type of the concurrency control rule, which is case-insensitive.

"sqlid": Concurrency control is based on the unique SQL ID.

"select", "insert", "update", "delete", and "merge": Concurrency control is based on the query type and keyword.

"resource": Instance-level concurrency control is based on the system resource usage.

rule_name

name

Name of a concurrency control rule, which is used to search for the concurrency control rule.

Any character string or NULL.

databases

name[]

Array of database names for which the concurrency control rule takes effect. The value is case-sensitive.

List of names of created databases. The value can be NULL, indicating that the configuration takes effect in all databases.

Currently, the database list takes effect only when rule_type is set to a query type because a unique SQL ID is bound to a database and belongs to only one database. The concurrency control rules based on resource usage take effect for instances, that is, all databases.

start_time

timestamptz

Start time of a concurrency control rule.

The value can be NULL, indicating that it takes effect from now on.

end_time

timestamptz

End time of a concurrency control rule.

The value can be NULL or '', indicating that the rule is always effective.

max_workload

int8

Maximum number of concurrent requests set in a concurrency control rule.

-

option_val

text[]

Supplementary information about the concurrency control rule.

It matches rule_type. The matching relationship is as follows:

  • "sqlid": specifies the unique ID of the SQL statement whose concurrency is to be controlled and slow SQL control rule. The format is '{id=1234, time_limit=100, max_execute_time=500, max_iops=1}', in which id indicates the unique SQL ID and is required. You can obtain it from the dbe_perf.statement or pg_stat_activity view. Others are optional. For details about their meanings, see section "Hint for Setting Slow SQL Control Rules."
  • "select", "insert", "update", "delete", and "merge": keyword sequence for concurrency control, which is case-insensitive and can be NULL.
  • "resource": resource threshold for traffic limiting. The format is '{cpu-80, memory-70}'. No matter what the CPU and memory thresholds are set, the value 0 is used.

gs_update_workload_rule(rule_id, rule_name, databases, start_time, end_time, max_workload, option_val)

Description: To update an SQL statement concurrency control rule, users need to reset all parameters instead of only some parameters. Users must have the SYSADMIN permission. This function can be executed only on the CN.

Parameters: For details, see Table 2 gs_update_workload_rule parameters.

Return type: Boolean

Parameter

Type

Description

Value Range

rule_id

int8

ID of the concurrency control rule to be updated.

-

rule_name

name

Name of a concurrency control rule, which is used to search for the concurrency control rule.

Any character string or NULL.

databases

name[]

Array of database names for which the concurrency control rule takes effect. The value is case-sensitive.

List of names of created databases. The value can be NULL, indicating that the configuration takes effect in all databases.

Currently, the database list takes effect only when rule_type is set to a query type because a unique SQL ID is bound to a database and belongs to only one database. The concurrency control rules based on resource usage take effect for instances, that is, all databases.

start_time

timestamptz

Start time of a concurrency control rule.

The value can be NULL, indicating that it takes effect from now on.

end_time

timestamptz

End time of a concurrency control rule.

The value can be NULL, indicating that the rule is always effective.

max_workload

int8

Maximum number of concurrent requests set in a concurrency control rule.

option_val

text[]

  • "sqlid": specifies the unique ID of the SQL statement whose concurrency is to be controlled and slow SQL control rule.

  • "select", "insert", "update", "delete", and "merge": keyword sequence for concurrency control, which is case-insensitive and can be NULL.
  • "resource": resource threshold for triggering instance-level concurrency control. The value is in the format of '{cpu-80, memory-70}', indicating the OS resource threshold for triggering instance-level concurrency control. The value can be NULL, indicating that concurrency control is performed regardless of the resource usage.
