一、开发背景
DB: PostgreSQL 9.3.0
cas=# select oid,rolname from pg_authid where oid in (10,327299);
oid | rolname
-----+----------
10 | postgres
327299| usr_cas
(1 row)
cas=# select lomowner,count(1) from pg_largeobject_metadata group by 1;
lomowner | count
----------+--------
10 | 292408
327299 | 382123
(2 row)
二、清理
需要清理两部分,postgres用户的大对象与usr_cas用户的大对象,前者是用postgres连接时创建的,需要全部删除,后者存在部分用户数据已删但大对象没删的数据,也需要删除。
1.lo_unlink删除
删除通常使用自带的lo_unlink()函数,于是使用了以下命令,但爆出问题 out of shared memory
cas=# select lo_unlink(oid) from pg_largeobject_metadata where lomowner = 10;
WARNING: out of shared memory
ERROR: out of shared memory
HINT: You might need to increase max_locks_per_transaction.
cas=# show max_locks_per_transaction ;
max_locks_per_transaction
---------------------------
64
(1 row)
这个提示比较明显,一个SQL把所有的大对象在一个事务里完成,但分配的内存不够,所以失败了,要增加max_locks_per_transaction参数值,这个值默认是64。其实也可以换个角度删除,不把所有的大对象在一个事务里删除,而是分批次执行,因为要删除的数据量其实也不算多,就考虑了后者。
--多执行以下命令几次就可以了,每次删2W,执行10几次就够了,也可以放脚本里写,一次执行
cas=# select lo_unlink(oid) from pg_largeobject_metadata where lomowner = 10 limit 20000;
2.vacuumlo删除
清理完postgres的用户数据以后,接着要清理usr_cas用户的大对象数据,要写脚本逐个比对比较麻烦,而且效率也不一定好。这可以使用自带的vacuumlo的小工具。这个工具是通过大对象的OID与用户表中的oid进行关联比对,然后逐一删除,所以在设计大对象用户表时,虽然也可以使用int类型存储oid值,但是对后期的维护不方便,推荐使用oid类型。 如果这个工具没有安装,可以在contrib/vacuumlo下面make && make install安装一下即可
简介如下:
[postgres@kenyon-primary ~]$ vacuumlo --help
vacuumlo removes unreferenced large objects from databases.
Usage:
vacuumlo [OPTION]... DBNAME...
Options:
-l LIMIT commit after removing each LIMIT large objects
-n don't remove large objects, just show what would be done
-v write a lot of progress messages
-V, --version output version information, then exit
-?, --help show this help, then exit
Connection options:
-h HOSTNAME database server host or socket directory
-p PORT database server port
-U USERNAME user name to connect as
-w never prompt for password
-W force password prompt
Report bugs to .
使用:
--显示要清理的数据,不清理,只显示
[postgres@kenyon-primary ~]$ vacuumlo -n cas -v
Connected to database "cas"
Test run: no large objects will be removed!
Checking expiration_policy in public.serviceticket
Checking service in public.serviceticket
Checking expiration_policy in public.ticketgrantingticket
Checking authentication in public.ticketgrantingticket
Checking services_granted_access_to in public.ticketgrantingticket
Would remove 382143 large objects from database "cas".
--清理,可以加个“l”参数,每隔这个参数提交一次
[postgres@kenyon-primary ~]$ vacuumlo cas -v -l 1000
Connected to database "cas"
Test run: no large objects will be removed!
Checking expiration_policy in public.serviceticket
Checking service in public.serviceticket
Checking expiration_policy in public.ticketgrantingticket
Checking authentication in public.ticketgrantingticket
Checking services_granted_access_to in public.ticketgrantingticket
Would remove 382143 large objects from database "cas".
清理完毕再看一下
cas=# select pg_size_pretty(pg_database_size('cas'));

--空间还没有收缩,使用vacuum full analyze
cas=# vacuum full analyze verbose pg_largeobject;

三、总结
在使用开源的一些工具时,如果有使用一些大对象,需要注意一下程序清理用户数据时是否会同步删除大对象数据。
