Greenplum database resource queues - way to limit available resources to database users

posted Apr 28, 2017, 12:02 PM by Sachchida Ojha
1. List all resource type that can be configured in a greenplum resource queues
2. See resource queue parameter settings
3. Resource queue catalog tables and views
4. Create new RQ or update existing RQ settings


There are 6 tables/views that can be used to get most of the information about resource queue. 4 of them are in pg_catalog schema and 1 is in gp_toolkitt schema.
  • pg_catalog.pg_resourcetype
  • pg_catalog.pg_resqueue
  • pg_catalog.pg_resqueue_attributes
  • pg_catalog.pg_resqueuecapability
  • pg_catalog.pg_stat_resqueues
  • gp_toolkit.gp_resqueue_status
Functions.

The pg_stat_resqueues view allows administrators to view metrics about a resource queue's workload over time. To allow statistics to be collected for this view, you must enable the stats_queue_level server configuration parameter on the Greenplum Database master instance. Enabling the collection of these metrics does incur a small performance penalty, as each statement submitted through a resource queue must be logged in the system catalog tables.

pg_catalog.pg_stat_resqueues
COLUMNTYPEREFERENCESDESCRIPTION
queueoidoid The OID of the resource queue.
queuenamename The name of the resource queue.
n_queries_execbigint Number of queries submitted for execution from this resource queue.
n_queries_waitbigint Number of queries submitted to this resource queue that had to wait before they could execute.
elapsed_execbigint Total elapsed execution time for statements submitted through this resource queue.
elapsed_waitbigint Total elapsed time that statements submitted through this resource queue had to wait before they were executed.
