-
1.Download postgreSQL From Following Link
http://www.postgresql.org/download/
2. Install The Readline-Devel And Libtermcap-Devel Rpm’s:
Becouse You may encounter the error (Ex. configure: error: readline library not found) message while performing ./configure during postgreSQL installation.
# rpm -ivh libtermcap-devel-2.0.8-46.1.i386.rpm readline-devel-5.1-1.1.i386.rpm
warning: libtermcap-devel-2.0.8-46.1.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 1e5e0159

4.Create the postgreSQL directory structure
After the installation, make sure bin, doc, include, lib, man and share directories are created under the default (/usr/local/pgsql )directory Like Below
# ls -l /usr/local/pgsql/
total 24
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun  3 18:10 bin
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun  3 18:10 doc
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Jun  3 18:10 include
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun  3 18:10 lib
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Jun  3 18:10 man
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Jun  3 18:10 share
5.Create A User Account
# adduser postgres
# passwd postgres123
Changing password for user postgres.
New UNIX password:
Retype new UNIX password:
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.

6.Create Data Directory For Postgresql
Create the  data directory and make postgres user as the owner.
# mkdir /usr/local/pgsql/data
# chown postgres:postgres /usr/local/pgsql/data
# ls -ld /usr/local/pgsql/data
drwxr-xr-x 2 postgres postgres 4096 Jun  6 18:13 /usr/local/pgsql/data

7.Initialize data directory
Before you can start creating any database, the empty data directory created in the above step should be initialized using the initdb command .
# su - postgres
# /usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data/
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user postgres
This user must also own the server process.
 
The database cluster will be initialized with locale en_US.UTF-8.
The default database encoding has accordingly been set to UTF8.
The default text search configuration will be set to "english".

WARNING: enabling "trust" authentication for local connections
You can change this by editing pg_hba.conf or using the -A option the
next time you run initdb.
 
Success. You can now start the database server using:
 
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
                                    (or)
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -l logfile start
8.Validate the data directory
Make sure all postgres DB configuration files are created under the data directory
$ ls -l /usr/local/pgsql/data  
total 64
drwx------ 5 postgres postgres  4096 Jun  6 18:13 base
drwx------ 2 postgres postgres  4096 Jun  6 18:13 global
drwx------ 2 postgres postgres  4096 Jun  6 18:13 pg_clog
-rw------- 1 postgres postgres  3429 Jun  6 18:13 pg_hba.conf
-rw------- 1 postgres postgres  1460 Jun  6 18:13 pg_ident.conf
drwx------ 4 postgres postgres  4096 Jun  6 18:13 pg_multixact

drwx------ 3 postgres postgres  4096 Jun  6 18:13 pg_xlog
-rw------- 1 postgres postgres 16592 Jun  6 18:13 postgresql.conf
9.Start postgreSQL database
Use the postgres postmaster command to start the postgreSQL server in the background as shown below.
$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data >logfile 2>&1 &
[1] 2222
 
$ cat logfile
LOG:  database system was shut down at 2009-04-06 18:13:50 PDT
LOG:  autovacuum launcher started
LOG:  database system is ready to accept connections
10.Create DB and test the installation
Create a test database and connect to it to make sure the installation was successful as shown below.
$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/createdb nijam
$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql nijam
Welcome to psql 8.3.7, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.

How to find the server is whether standby (slave) or primary(master) in Postgresql replication ?

-
Method 1 You can check the mode of the server using "pg_controldata". [pgsql@test~]$ pg_controldata /usr/local/pgsql/data84/ Database cluster state: in archive recovery --> This is Standby Database Database cluster state: in production --> This is Production Database [Master] Method 2 You can use pg_is_in_recovery() which returns True if recovery is still in progress(so the server is running in standby mode or slave) postgres=# select pg_is_in_recovery(); pg_is_in_recovery ------------------- t (1 row) If Return    false   so the server is running in primary mode or master postgres=# select pg_is_in_recovery(); pg_is_in_recovery ------------------- f (1 row)

7 Steps to configure BDR replication in postgresql

-
Image
 The  BDR  (Bi-Directional Replication) project adds multi-master replication to PostgreSQL 9.4.  Postgres-BDR has a lower impact on the masters(s) than trigger-based replication solutions. There is no write-amplification, as it does not require triggers to write to queue tables in order to replicate writes.   Here We are using  postgres version 9.4.12 and bdr version 1.0.2. for configuring  multi master replication . Simply Following 7 steps you can configure the multi master replication in postgresql. To download the bdr in below link. .   https://github.com/2ndQuadrant/bdr/archive/bdr-pg/REL9_4_12-1.tar.gz $ tar -xzvf REL9_4_12-1.tar.gz $ wget https://github.com/2ndQuadrant/bdr/archive/bdr-plugin/1.0.2.tar.gz $ tar -xzvf 1.0.2.tar.gz 1. To install BDR. $ cd ~/bdr-bdr-pg-REL9_4_12-1 $ ./configure --prefix=/usr/lib/postgresql/9.4 --enable-debug --with-openssl $ make -j4 -s install-world $ cd ~/bdr-bdr-plugin-1.0.2 $ PATH=/usr/lib/postgresql/9.4/bin:"$PATH" ./c

How to Get Table Size, Database Size, Indexes Size, schema Size, Tablespace Size, column Size in PostgreSQL Database

-
In this post, I am sharing few important function for finding the size of database, table and index in PostgreSQL. Finding object size in postgresql database is very important and common. Is it very useful to know the exact size occupied by the object at the tablespace. The object size in the following scripts is in GB. The scripts have been formatted to work very easily with PUTTY SQL Editor. 1. Checking table size excluding table dependency: SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size('mhrordhu_shk.mut_kharedi_audit')); pg_size_pretty ---------------- 238 MB (1 row) 2. Checking table size including table dependency: SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size('mhrordhu_shk.mut_kharedi_audit')); pg_size_pretty ---------------- 268 MB (1 row) 3. Finding individual postgresql database size SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_database_size('db_name')); 4. Finding individual table size for postgresql database -including dependency index: SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_total_rel
