A setup of loader balancer
|
Sample Load Balancer Architecture
|
The load balancer has a setting parameter within a system as shown in
the following figures.Explanation of the setting parameter in this page
is due to the following figure.
The sample file ("pglb.conf.sample") of a configuration file is
created under the "etc" directory under an installation directory
(default is "/usr/local/pgsql/etc") by a loader balancer's installation.
Please copy this file, create the file "pglb.conf" and edit
according to each environment. At the time of starting of a loader balancer,
the path of this configuration file can be specified as a parameter.
$cd /usr/local/pgsql/etc
$cp [path to source]/src/pgcluster/pglb/pglb.conf.sample pglb.conf

# There are two kinds of the description methods of the setup value
in this file.
# One is the setting up two or more values, and another is the setting
up one value at a time.

(1)A setup of Cluster DB
・<Cluster_Server_Info>〜</Cluster_Server_Info>
A setup of Cluster DB is declared. The setup value (a host name, the port
number for postmaster, the number of Maximum connection) of Cluster DB
is described between a start tag and an end tag. Two or more information
on Cluster DB can be set up.
・<Host_Name>〜</Host_Name>
The host name of Cluster DB describes. Please do
not describe an IP address.
・<Port>〜</Port>
The port number of Cluster DB (postmaster) is described.
・<Max_Connect>〜</Max_Connect>
The maximum amount of the session linked to Cluster DB is set up. It needs
to be lesser than the value of "max_connections" of Cluster
DB. Cluster DB connects not only with loader balancer but with a replication
server. The number which loader balancer can connect to Cluster DB becomes
less than the value of "max_connections" of Cluster DB.
(2)A setup of loader balancer
・<Receive_Port>〜</Receive_Port>
The port number which receives a query from a client is described.
・<Recovery_Port>〜</Recovery_Port>
The port number which receives the recovery demand from a replication
server is described.
・<LifeCheck_Port>〜</LifeCheck_Port>
The port number which receives the life check from other servers is described.
・<Max_Cluster_Num>〜</Max_Cluster_Num>
The maximum amount of Cluster DB is described. This value contains the
number of the Cluster DBs to extend in the future.
・<Use_Connection_Pool>〜</Use_Connection_Pool>
It is specified whether a connection pooling function is used for connection
with Cluster DB. Please describe by 'yes' or 'no'.
