Postgresql 如何选择正确的关闭模式

停止数据库的命令：

pg_ctl stop -D $PGDATA [-m shutdown-mode]

shutdown-mode有如下几种模式：

1. smart: 等所有的连接中止后，关闭数据库。如果客户端连接不终止， 则无法关闭数据库。

开启一个空会话：

[root@localhost ~]# su - postgres
[postgres@localhost ~]$ psql
psql (9.4.4)
Type "help" for help.
 
postgres=#

用smart关闭数据库：

[postgres@localhost ~]$ pg_ctl stop -D $PGDATA -m smart
waiting for server to shut down............................................................... failed
pg_ctl: server does not shut down
HINT: The "-m fast" option immediately disconnects sessions rather than
waiting for session-initiated disconnection

2. fast: 快速关闭数据库， 断开客户端的连接，让已有的事务回滚，然后正常关闭数据库。

[postgres@localhost ~]$ pg_ctl stop -D $PGDATA -m fast
waiting for server to shut down.... done
server stopped

查看关闭日志：

LOG: received fast shutdown request
LOG: aborting any active transactions
FATAL: terminating connection due to administrator command
LOG: shutting down
LOG: database system is shut down

会话被强制中断，然后关闭数据库。

起一个事务，然后测试关闭：

postgres=# create table t(id int primary key, name varchar(9));
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# begin;
BEGIN
postgres=# insert into t values(1,'a')
postgres-# ;
INSERT 0 1

不提交， 然后用FAST MODE去关闭数据库：

[postgres@localhost ~]$ pg_ctl stop -D $PGDATA -m fast
waiting for server to shut down.... done
server stopped

查看日志：

LOG: received fast shutdown request
LOG: aborting any active transactions
LOG: autovacuum launcher shutting down
FATAL: terminating connection due to administrator command
LOG: shutting down
LOG: database system is shut down

同样是直接中断会话， 而不去管事务有没有提交。

postgres=# select * from t;
id | name
----+------
(0 rows)

没有提交的数据， 在重启之后并不能查到。

3. immediate: 立即关闭数据库，立即停止数据库进程，直接退出，下次启动时会进行实例恢复。

postgres=# insert into t values(1,'a')
;
INSERT 0 1
postgres=# select * from t;
id | name
----+------
1 | a
(1 row)

关闭数据库：

[postgres@localhost ~]$ pg_ctl stop -D $PGDATA -m immediate
waiting for server to shut down.... done
server stopped

查看日志：

LOG: received immediate shutdown request
WARNING: terminating connection because of crash of another server process
DETAIL: The postmaster has commanded this server process to roll back the current transaction and exit, because another server process exited abnormally and possibly corrupted shared memory.
HINT: In a moment you should be able to reconnect to the database and repeat your command.
WARNING: terminating connection because of crash of another server process
DETAIL: The postmaster has commanded this server process to roll back the current transaction and exit, because another server process exited abnormally and possibly corrupted shared memory.
HINT: In a moment you should be able to reconnect to the database and repeat your command.

启动数据库：

[postgres@localhost ~]$ pg_ctl -D /apps/pgsql/pgdata -l 1.log start
server starting

查看日志：

LOG: database system was interrupted; last known up at 2017-04-27 18:56:47 PDT
LOG: database system was not properly shut down; automatic recovery in progress #提示非正常关机，自动开启恢复。
LOG: redo starts at 0/181F910
LOG: record with zero length at 0/181FA90
LOG: redo done at 0/181FA60
LOG: last completed transaction was at log time 2017-04-27 18:59:13.727213-07
LOG: MultiXact member wraparound protections are now enabled
LOG: autovacuum launcher started
LOG: database system is ready to accept connections

查看数据：

[postgres@localhost ~]$ psql
psql (9.4.4)
Type "help" for help.
 
postgres=# select * from t;
id | name
----+------
1 | a
(1 row)

提交的数据已通过实例恢复。

小结：

对比以上三种关库模式：

smart最为安全，但最慢， 需要将所有连接都断开后，才会关库，默认关库模式。

fast强制中断会话，而不管有操作有没有提交，在做系统维护（系统维护时一般应用都正常关闭了，或者不再会有事务操作。）时，需要这种模式来关闭数据库。

immediate最暴力的方式，不管数据有没有落盘（POSGRE是遵循WAL机制），就直接关掉， 待启动时进行实例恢复， 如果在关库前有大量的事务没有写入磁盘， 那这个恢复过程可能会非常的漫长。

补充：postgresql 异步 stream replication 环境关闭 master 的验证

os: ubuntu 16.04

db: postgresql 9.6.8

验证在异步 stream replication环境下，主动关闭master时，数据是否有丢失，能丢失多少。

用 pgbench 模拟数据库的大量数据操作

postgres=# create database pgbenchdb;
# su - postgres
$ pgbench -i -s 20 pgbenchdb
$ pgbench -r -j2 -c4 -T300 pgbenchdb

关闭 master

# su - postgres
$ /usr/lib/postgresql/9.6/bin/pg_ctl stop -m fast -D "/data/pg9.6/main"

提升 slave

# su - postgres
$ /usr/lib/postgresql/9.6/bin/pg_ctl promote -D "/data/pg9.6/main"

查看 old master 的 xlog location

$ /usr/lib/postgresql/9.6/bin/pg_xlogdump 000000010000000000000016
rmgr: XLOG  len (rec/tot): 106/ 106, tx:   0, lsn: 0/16000028, prev 0/152C9A10, desc: CHECKPOINT_SHUTDOWN redo 0/16000028; tli 1; prev tli 1; fpw true; xid 0:118746; oid 16432; multi 1; offset 0; oldest xid 543 in DB 1; oldest multi 1 in DB 1; oldest/newest commit timestamp xid: 550/118745; oldest running xid 0; shutdown
pg_xlogdump: FATAL: error in WAL record at 0/16000028: invalid record length at 0/16000098: wanted 24, got 0

可以看到 lsn: 0/16000028, prev 0/152C9A10, desc: CHECKPOINT_SHUTDOWN redo 0/16000028;

pg_xlogdump: FATAL: error in WAL record at 0/16000238: invalid record length at 0/16000270: wanted 24, got 0

可以看到关键记录

lsn: 0/16000028, prev 0/152C9A10, desc: CHECKPOINT_SHUTDOWN redo 0/16000028
lsn: 0/16000098, prev 0/16000028, desc: END_OF_RECOVERY

而 END_OF_RECOVERY 对应的 lsn 为 0/16000098，和 00000002.history 时间线文件的内容完全一致。

所以在异步 stream replication 环境下，主动关闭master时，会将最后一条记录(CHECKPOINT_SHUTDOWN)发送给slave，不会造成数据的丢失。

而 synchronous_commit = on 保证事务有两份持久化的落盘数据。

wal_retrieve_retry_interval = 5s 控制 salve 到 master 失败时，再次重试的等待时间。
