Postgresql FATAL: could not create semaphores: No space left on device

时间:2021-07-23 09:46:50

昨天安装完成pg 9.5后,启动报错:

FATAL:  could not create semaphores: No space left on device
DETAIL:  Failed system call was semget(xxxxxxxxxx).
HINT:  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.
查看报错日志是由于内核的相关配置参数设置过小引起的。
这里是共享内存段的限制,简单介绍一下
如果数据库报FATAL: could not create shared memory segment:Cannot allocate memory 错误,可以考虑修改以下相关参数
#ipcs -lm
------ Shared Memory Limits --------
max number of segments =
max seg size (kbytes) =
max total shared memory (kbytes) =
min seg size (bytes) =
#cat  /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax

SHMMAX 单个共享内存段最大字节数

# cat  /proc/sys/kernel/shmmni

SHMMNI 共享内存段最大个数

# cat  /proc/sys/kernel/shmall

SHMALL系统*享内存也总数,至少为ceil(shmmax/PAGE_SIZE)

获取page_size值
# getconf PAGE_SIZE

可以根据实际情况修改以上参数值,在/etc/sysctl.conf配置文件中

 今天遇到的错误,主要解决以下参数的限制才能解决我们数据库启动的报错
# ipcs -ls

------ Semaphore Limits --------
max number of arrays =
max semaphores per array =
max semaphores system wide =
max ops per semop call =
semaphore max value = # cat /proc/sys/kernel/sem
SEMMSL SEMMNS SEMOPM SEMMNI
SEMMSL 每个信号量set中信号量最大个数
SEMMNS linux系统中信号量最大个数
SEMOPM semop系统调用允许的信号量最大个数设置,设置成和SEMMSL一样即可
SEMMNI  linux系统信号量set最大个数
所以SEMMNS=SEMMSL*SEMMNI
所以要么增大信号量,要么减少max_connect参数
这里我选择增大信号量
修改 vi /etc/sysctl.conf 的以下参数
kernel.sem = 50100 128256000 50100 2560
ipcs -ls
------ Semaphore Limits --------
max number of arrays = 2560
max semaphores per array = 50100
max semaphores system wide = 128256000
max ops per semop call = 50100
semaphore max value = 32767
重新启动数据库后无报错,数据库可以正常启动。
下面是官方文档中对semaphores相关参数的说明:
Name Description Reasonable values
SHMMAX Maximum size of shared memory segment (bytes) at least 1kB (more if running many copies of the server)
SHMMIN Minimum size of shared memory segment (bytes) 1
SHMALL Total amount of shared memory available (bytes or pages) if bytes, same as SHMMAX; if pages, ceil(SHMMAX/PAGE_SIZE)
SHMSEG Maximum number of shared memory segments per process only 1 segment is needed, but the default is much higher
SHMMNI Maximum number of shared memory segments system-wide like SHMSEG plus room for other applications
SEMMNI Maximum number of semaphore(打旗语) identifiers (i.e., sets) at least ceil((max_connections + autovacuum_max_workers + max_worker_processes + 5) / 16)
SEMMNS Maximum number of semaphores system-wide ceil((max_connections + autovacuum_max_workers + max_worker_processes + 5) / 16) * 17 plus room for other applications
SEMMSL Maximum number of semaphores(信号) per set at least 17
SEMMAP Number of entries in semaphore map see text
SEMVMX Maximum value of semaphore at least 1000 (The default is often 32767; do not change unless necessary)
