Обсуждение: Increasing Max # of connections
Hi All, I am using Postgresql 7.3.2 on Solaris 5.9 compiled with gcc and solaris ld. Right now, our max number of connections and buffers are set to the default, which is 32 for connections and 64 for buffers. I want to be able to increase that to 100 Max connections and 200 max buffers, but when I do that.. i get this: IpcSemaphoreCreate: semget(key=5432004, num=17, 03600) failed: No space left on device This error does *not* mean that you have run out of disk space. It occurs when either the system limit for the maximum number of semaphore sets (SEMMNI), or the system wide maximum number of semaphores (SEMMNS), would be exceeded. You need to raise the respective kernel parameter. Alternatively, reduce PostgreSQL's consumption of semaphores by reducing its max_connections parameter (currently 100). How do I increase the mentioned kernel values on solaris to be able to increase the number of connections I need? TIA, Errol U.

the only way you can do this is to change your kernel parameters or use 32 connections and 64 buffers On Wed, 23 Jul 2003, Errol Neal wrote: > Hi All, > > I am using Postgresql 7.3.2 on Solaris 5.9 compiled with gcc and solaris > ld.

I modified the kernel params in /etc/system to this: set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967295 set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1 set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=100 set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=10 set semsys:seminfo_semmni=100 set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=100 set semsys:seminfo_semmns=200 set semsys:seminfo_semopm=100 set semsys:seminfo_semvmx=32767 Here is the output from sysdef * IPC Semaphores * 100 semaphore identifiers (SEMMNI) 200 semaphores in system (SEMMNS) 30 undo structures in system (SEMMNU) 100 max semaphores per id (SEMMSL) 100 max operations per semop call (SEMOPM) 10 max undo entries per process (SEMUME) 32767 semaphore maximum value (SEMVMX) 16384 adjust on exit max value (SEMAEM) * * IPC Shared Memory * 4294967295 max shared memory segment size (SHMMAX) 100 shared memory identifiers (SHMMNI) Okay, the new problem is that when I place as little as double the default amount of connections and buffers, Postgresql starts, but dies shortly thereafter. There is not any log output as to why it dies, it just does!! Can someone help me please??
