MariaDB 10.7 Column Store Engine on Ubuntu 20.4 – Community Edition

Step 1. Virtual Environment Setup using either VMWare Viewer or Oracle VM Box

Download VMWare Player – Evaluation Learing Purpose
https://www.vmware.com/products/workstation-player/workstation-player-evaluation.html

Step 2. Download the respective VM Image
https://www.linuxvmimages.com/images/ubuntu-2004/#ubuntu-20044

Download VM Image for Ubuntu 20.4
03/22/2022 01:11 PM 2,599,524,771 Ubuntu_20.04.4_VM.7z

Uncompress the above file

03/08/2022 03:46 AM 8,607,367,168 Ubuntu_20.04.4_VM_LinuxVMImages.COM.vmdk
03/08/2022 03:46 AM 3,071 Ubuntu_20.04.4_VM_LinuxVMImages.COM.vmx

Step 3. Import VM Images in VMware Workstation (VMDK File)
Step 3.1: Go to the downloads directory of your system (default one) or to the location where you have saved the VM image.
Step 3.2: Extract the compressed file using the 7-Zip.
Optionally, move the extracted folder to where you have your other VMs.
Step 3.3: Open VMware Workstation and go to File » Open.
Import Virtual Appliance
Step 3.4: Browse to the location where you have extracted the VM image. Select the image and then click on Open.
Select VM Image
Step 3.5: In a second or two, you should see a new Virtual Machine in the VMware Workstation.
Virtual Machine
Step 3.6: If required, you can change the virtual machine’s resources like CPU, Memory, Network, and other settings by Edit virtual machine settings.
Edit Virtual Machine Settings
Step 3.7: You can now power on the virtual machine to start working on it.
Power On Virtual Machine
Step 3.8: Click on I Copied It.
Copy Virtual Machine

Step 4. Download the MariaDB respective version with ColumnStore

MariaDB 10.7 With ColumnStore – Download and Install – With Internet

Step 4.1: Start the New VM with any Name
ubuntu/ubuntu
Network Setting change to Bridged so that we can have the IP address same as our desktop to SCP

Step 4.2: Create a mysql user (from ubuntu)
sudo adduser mysql

Step 4.3: Give Sudo access to mysql user (from ubuntu)
sudo usermod -aG sudo mysql

Logout and login confirm
sudo whoami
(should return root)

Step 4.4: Download the MariaDB Community Server with ColumnStore

sudo mkdir /db_dumps
sudo chown mysql:mysql /db_dumps

D:\Data-Thanam\Download>scp mariadb-10.7.3-ubuntu-focal-amd64-debs.tar mysql@192.168.3.24:/db_dumps

Step 4.5: Install the MariaDB with ColumnStore
cd /db_dumps
tar -xf mariadb-10.7.3-ubuntu-focal-amd64-debs.tar
cd mariadb-10.7.3-ubuntu-focal-amd64-debs/
sudo ./setup_repository

sudo su –

apt-get update && apt-get install mariadb-server mariadb-backup libmariadb3 mariadb-client mariadb-plugin-columnstore

Step 6: Check and Confirm Columstore

SELECT PLUGIN_NAME, PLUGIN_STATUS FROM information_schema.PLUGINS WHERE PLUGIN_LIBRARY LIKE ‘ha_columnstore%’;

CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS test;

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS test.contacts (first_name VARCHAR(50),last_name VARCHAR(50),email VARCHAR(100)) ENGINE=ColumnStore;

INSERT INTO test.contacts VALUES (“Walker”, “Percy”, “w.percy@example.com”), (“Flannery”, “O’Connor”, “flan@example.edu”);

select * from test.contacts;

show create table test.contacts\G;

Step 7. Confirm the MariaDB and ColumnStore Services Stop and Start

MariaDB Service Stop and Start
systemctl stop mariadb
systemctl start mariadb
systemctl restart mariadb

Note: When MariaDB service is stopped both of them are not available

ColumnStore Service Stop and Start

systemctl stop mariadb-columnstore
systemctl start mariadb-columnstore
systemctl restart mariadb-columnstore

Note: When ColumnStore service is stopped DB is available but the Table and schemas related with ColumnStore engine may not be accessible.

MariaDB [test]> select * from contacts;
ERROR 1815 (HY000): Internal error: DBRM is not responding. Cannot accept queries

How to collect log for mariadb issue investigation

October 21, 2021 Mudhalvan Leave a comment

When you have an incident of database crash or any issue we may need to collect detailed log for further investigation. Will be good to have these details

You can run from the unix host. This command has been tested and confirmed on Centos Linux. Make sure you are able to login to mysql instance using “mysql -P 3306” in case it is not working you have to change the command accordingly

Set filename

outfile=”CrashLog-$(hostname)-$(date +%Y%m%d)-globvar-info.out”

echo “Global Variables:”>>$outfile
mysql -P 3306 -ABNe “show global variables;” | sort | sed ‘s/; /;~\&/g’ | tr -s ‘~’ ‘\n’ | tr -s ‘\&’ ‘\t’ >>$outfile
