Trent Lloyd 0697559b51 wsrep_slave_threads: default to 48 on bionic
This improves performance significantly for environments constrained by
calls to sync() such as HDDs or lower-end SSDs (or just very busy
environments running many queries)

By default the the queries from other nodes are only processed with
1 thread, which means they will always run slower than on the master and
any long running query will hold up all other queries behind it.

Additionally, when multiple queries commit at once the server can
combine them together into a single on-disk sync ('group commit') which
is not possible otherwise. This optimisation appears to only occur on
Bionic (Percona 5.7) and not Xenial (Percona 5.6).

On Bionic, default to 48 threads which experimentally is a good number
for OpenStack environments without being too crazy high. Galera ensures
that queries that are dependent on each other are still executed
sequentially and generally it is not expected to cause replication
inconsistencies.

However Percona Cluster 5.6 on Xenial appears to have a bug handling
foreign key constraints that causes them to be violated (LP #1823850).
The result is that the slave node crashes out and has to do a full SST
to recover. The same issue is not present on the master. Thus we leave
the default wsrep_slave_threads=1 on Xenial to avoid this issue for now
particularly since Xenial does not appear to be able to use Group Commit
to optimise the number of sync requests generated by the queries - so
this option does not really improve performance there anyway.

Partial-Bug: #1822903

configuration from outside of Launchpad archives or PPA's.
harden:
default:
type: string
description: |
Apply system hardening. Supports a space-delimited list of modules
to run. Supported modules currently include os, ssh, apache and mysql.
innodb-file-per-table:
type: boolean
default: True
description: |
Turns on innodb_file_per_table option, which will make MySQL put each
InnoDB table into separate .idb file. Existing InnoDB tables will remain
in ibdata1 file - full dump/import is needed to get rid of large
ibdata1 file
table-open-cache:
type: int
default: 2048
description:
Sets table_open_cache (formerly known as table_cache) to mysql.
dataset-size:
type: string
default:
description: |
[DEPRECATED] - use innodb-buffer-pool-size.
How much data should be kept in memory in the DB. This will be used to
tune settings in the database server appropriately. Supported suffixes
include K/M/G/T. If suffixed with %, one will get that percentage of RAM
allocated to the dataset.
innodb-buffer-pool-size:
type: string
default:
description: |
By default this value will be set according to 50% of system total
memory or 512MB (whichever is lowest) but also can be set to any specific
value for the system. Supported suffixes include K/M/G/T. If suffixed
with %, one will get that percentage of system total memory allocated.
innodb-change-buffering:
type: string
default:
description: |
Configure whether InnoDB performs change buffering, an optimization
that delays write operations to secondary indexes so that the I/O
operations can be performed sequentially.
.
Permitted values include
.
none Do not buffer any operations.
inserts Buffer insert operations.
deletes Buffer delete marking operations; strictly speaking,
the writes that mark index records for later deletion
during a purge operation.
changes Buffer inserts and delete-marking operations.
purges Buffer the physical deletion operations that happen
in the background.
all The default. Buffer inserts, delete-marking
operations, and purges.
.

innodb-io-capacity:
type: int
default:
description: |
Configure the InnoDB IO capacity which sets an upper limit on I/O
activity performed by InnoDB background tasks, such as flushing pages
from the buffer pool and merging data from the change buffer.
.
This value typically defaults to 200 but can be increased on systems
with fast bus-attached SSD based storage to help the server handle the
background maintenance work associated with a high rate of row changes.
.
Alternatively it can be decreased to a minimum of 100 on systems with
low speed 5400 or 7200 rpm spindles, to reduce the proportion of IO
operations being used for background maintenance work.
.
For more details https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/innodb-parameters.html#sysvar_innodb_io_capacity
max-connections:
type: int
default: 600
description: |
Maximum connections to allow. A value of -1 means use the server's
compiled-in default. This is not typically that useful so the
charm will configure PXC with a default max-connections value of 600.
Note: Connections take up memory resources. Either at startup time with
performance-schema=True or during run time with performance-schema=False.
This value is a balance between connection exhaustion and memory
exhaustion.
.
Consult a MySQL memory calculator like http://www.mysqlcalculator.com/ to
understand memory resources consumed by connections.
See also performance-schema.
wait-timeout:
type: int
default: -1
description: |
The number of seconds the server waits for activity on a noninteractive
connection before closing it. -1 means use the server's compiled in
default.
root-password:
type: string
default:
description: |
Root account password for new cluster nodes. Overrides the automatic
generation of a password for the root user, but must be set prior to
deployment time to have any effect.
sst-password:
type: string
default:
description: |
SST account password for new cluster nodes. Overrides the automatic
generation of a password for the sst user, but must be set prior to
deployment time to have any effect.
sst-method:
type: string
default: xtrabackup-v2
description: |
Percona method for taking the State Snapshot Transfer (SST), can be:
'rsync', 'xtrabackup', 'xtrabackup-v2', 'mysqldump', 'skip' - see
https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-xtradb-cluster/5.5/wsrep-system-index.html#wsrep_sst_method
min-cluster-size:
type: int
default:
description: |
Minimum number of units expected to exist before charm will attempt to
bootstrap percona cluster. If no value is provided this setting is
ignored.
dns-ha:
type: boolean
default: False
description: |
Use DNS HA with MAAS 2.0. Note if this is set do not set vip
settings below.
vip:
type: string
default:
description: |
Virtual IP to use to front Percona XtraDB Cluster in active/active HA
configuration
vip_iface:
type: string
default: eth0
description: Network interface on which to place the Virtual IP.
vip_cidr:
type: int
default: 24
description: Netmask that will be used for the Virtual IP.
ha-bindiface:
type: string
default: eth0
description: |
Default network interface on which HA cluster will bind to communication
with the other members of the HA Cluster.
ha-mcastport:
type: int
default: 5490
description: |
Default multicast port number that will be used to communicate between HA
Cluster nodes.
enable-binlogs:
type: boolean
default: False
description: |
Turns on MySQL binary logs. The placement of the logs is controlled with
the binlogs_path config option.
binlogs-path:
type: string
default: /var/log/mysql/mysql-bin.log
description: |
Location on the filesystem where binlogs are going to be placed.
Default mimics what mysql-common package would do for mysql.
Make sure you do not put binlogs inside mysql datadir (/var/lib/mysql/)!
binlogs-max-size:
type: string
default: 100M
description: |
Sets the max_binlog_size mysql configuration option, which will limit the
size of the binary log files. The server will automatically rotate
binlogs after they grow to be bigger than this value.
Keep in mind that transactions are never split between binary logs, so
therefore binary logs might get larger than configured value.
binlogs-expire-days:
type: int
default: 10
description: |
Sets the expire_logs_days mysql configuration option, which will make
mysql server automatically remove logs older than configured number of
days.
performance-schema:
type: boolean
default: False
description: |
The performance schema attempts to automatically size the values of
several of its parameters at server startup if they are not set
explicitly. When set to on (True) memory is allocated at startup time.
The implications of this is any memory related charm config options such
as max-connections and innodb-buffer-pool-size must be explicitly set for
the environment percona is running in or percona may fail to start.
Default to off (False) at startup time giving 5.5 like behavior. The
implication of this is one can set configuration values that could lead
to memory exhaustion during run time as memory is not allocated at
startup time.
pxc-strict-mode:
type: string
default: enforcing
description: |
Configures pxc_strict_mode (https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-xtradb-cluster/LATEST/features/pxc-strict-mode.html)
Valid values are 'disabled', 'permissive', 'enforcing' and 'master.'
Defaults to 'enforcing', as this is what PXC5.7 on bionic (and above)
does.
This option is ignored on PXC < 5.7 (xenial defaults to 5.6, trusty
defaults to 5.5)
tuning-level:
type: string
default: safest
description: |
Valid values are 'safest', 'fast', and 'unsafe'. If set to 'safest', all
settings are tuned to have maximum safety at the cost of performance.
'fast' will turn off most controls, but may lose data on crashes.
'unsafe' will turn off all protections but this may be OK in clustered
deployments.
# Network config (by default all access is over 'private-address')
access-network:
type: string
default:
description: |
The IP address and netmask of the 'access' network (e.g. 192.168.0.0/24)
.
This network will be used for access to database services.
os-access-hostname:
type: string
default:
description: |
The hostname or address of the access endpoint for percona-cluster.
cluster-network:
type: string
default:
description: |
The IP address and netmask of the cluster (replication) network (e.g.
192.168.0.0/24)
.
This network will be used for wsrep_cluster replication.
prefer-ipv6:
type: boolean
default: False
description: |
If True enables IPv6 support. The charm will expect network interfaces
to be configured with an IPv6 address. If set to False (default) IPv4
is expected.
.
NOTE: these charms do not currently support IPv6 privacy extension. In
order for this charm to function correctly, the privacy extension must be
disabled and a non-temporary address must be configured/available on
your network interface.
# Monitoring config
nagios_context:
type: string
default: "juju"
description: |
Used by the nrpe-external-master subordinate charm. A string that will
be prepended to instance name to set the host name in nagios. So for
instance the hostname would be something like 'juju-myservice-0'. If
you are running multiple environments with the same services in them
this allows you to differentiate between them.
nagios_servicegroups:
type: string
default: ""
description: |
A comma-separated list of nagios service groups.
If left empty, the nagios_context will be used as the servicegroup
modulo-nodes:
type: int
default:
description: |
This config option is rarely required but is provided for fine tuning, it
is safe to leave unset. Modulo nodes is used to help avoid restart
collisions as well as distribute load on the cloud at larger scale.
During restarts and cluster joins percona needs to execute these
operations serially. By setting modulo-nodes to the size of the cluster
and known-wait to a reasonable value, the charm will distribute the
operations serially. If this value is unset, the charm will check
min-cluster-size or else finally default to the size of the cluster
based on peer relations. Setting this value to 0 will execute operations
with no wait time. Setting this value to less than the cluster size will
distribute load but may lead to restart collisions.
known-wait:
type: int
default: 30
description: |
Known wait along with modulo nodes is used to help avoid restart
collisions. Known wait is the amount of time between one node executing
an operation and another. On slower hardware this value may need to be
larger than the default of 30 seconds.
peer-timeout:
type: string
default:
description: |
This setting sets the gmcast.peer_timeout value. Possible values are documented
on the galera cluster site http://galeracluster.com/documentation-webpages/galeraparameters.html
For very busy clouds or in resource restricted environments this value can be changed.
WARNING Please read all documentation before changing the default value which may have
unintended consequences. It may be necessary to set this value higher during deploy time
(PT15S) and subsequently change it back to the default (PT3S) after deployment.
databases-to-replicate:
type: string
default:
description: |
Databases and tables to replicate using MySQL asynchronous replication.
The databases should be separated with a semicolon while the tables
should be separated with a comma. No tables mean that the whole database
will be replicated. For example "database1:table1,table2;database2"
will replicate "table1" and "table2" tables from "database1" databasae
and all tables from "database2" database.
.
NOTE: This option should be used only when relating one cluster to the
other. It does not affect Galera synchronous replication.
cluster-id:
type: int
default:
description: |
Cluster ID to be used when using MySQL asynchronous replication.
.
NOTE: This value must be different for each cluster.
wsrep-slave-threads:
type: int
default:
description: |
Specifies the number of threads that can apply replication transactions
in parallel. Galera supports true parallel replication that applies
transactions in parallel only when it is safe to do so. When unset
defaults to 48 for >= Bionic or 1 for <= Xenial.
gcs-fc-limit:
type: int
default:
description: |
This setting controls when flow control engages. Simply speaking, if the
wsrep_local_recv_queue exceeds this size on a given node, a pausing flow
control message will be sent. The fc_limit defaults to 16 transactions.
This effectively means that this is as far as a given node can be behind
committing transactions from the cluster.
