MySQL Clustering Options

Mubashar IftikharMay 17 2019 — edited May 18 2019

I have two MySQL Database Servers i.e.

One is Active Server --> Master and second is Passive Server --> Slave.

and as we know we have 3-4 MySQL HR,DR Solutions / Clustering options. For example

01 : MySQL NDB Cluster

02 : MySQL InnoDB Cluster

03 : MySQL Cluster Carrier Grade

My First Question is i want to deploy One Active & One Passive MySQL Server so which Cluster Option / HA,DR Option will be fit for above mentioned scenario ?
My Second Question is suppose i have deploy One Active & One Passive MySQL Server in any above mentioned Cluster Option / HA,DR Option. So what about licensing ? I have to buy license of MySQL Servers/ Cluster ?

Unfortunately the numbers look almost self-consistent - provided you assume a programmer made silly mistake:

  • "non-idle" CPU is (100 - 77.7)% = 22.3%  (Note that the sum of the 3 non-idle CPU values is NOT 22.3%)
  • 29.8 / 22.3 = 1.3363

It looks to me as if the 1.3363 is supposed to be the percentage of the total non-idle CPU that has been used by your instance - but the programmer has got the division upside down. For an intuitive understanding the number should have been 22.3 / 29.8 = 74.8%.

(I think the difference between 1.3362 and 1.338 can be explained by the fact that the aritimetic being done to far more decimal places than the 1 d.p. shown for the Host CPU reports.)

Hi,

Can you show the time model statistics ('DB CPU' and 'background cpu time') and Operating System Statistics (BUSY_TIME, IDLE_TIME and NUM_CPUS) from the same report? And the elapsed time of the report

I think the formulas are something like:

  %Total CPU = (instance CPU from Time Model) / (num cpu * elapsed time)

  %Busy CPU = (instance CPU from Time Model) / (OS non-idle time)

Thanks,

Franck.

What it should be and what it seems to be can be two very different things.

I'm looking at a few AWR reports from a 12.1 system where

%Total CPU seems to be ("Total CPU time" from Time Model Statistics) / ("BUSY_TIME" + "IDLE_TIME" from Operating System Statistics)

and

%Busy CPU = ("Total CPU time" from Time Model Statistics) / "BUSY_TIME" from Operating System Statistics)

However, the Total CPU time is roughly 40%  greater than the BUSY_TIME (22,380 seconds vs. 15,893 seconds)! so the %Busy CPU is (quite correctly, for some value of "correct")  140.8%)

Picking just one report, though, I can see BUSY_TIME  + IDLE_TIME = 106,398, while elapsed time * CPU count = 114,416 so there's more than 8,000 seconds "lost" time.  (Naturally the confusion is compounded by the fact that it's 8 cores and 16 CPUs).

My observations:

DB CPU (778 seconds) is longer than the BUSY_TIME (68905/100= 689.05 seconds) which doesn't make sense

Jonathan proposed formulas applied in my report.

Hi,
@Jonathan,
I applied your formulas and had:
%Total CPU seems to be ("Total CPU time" from Time Model Statistics 390.40) / ("BUSY_TIME" 87,174 + "IDLE_TIME" from Operating System Statistics 273,039 )=0.108
%Busy CPU = ("Total CPU time" from Time Model Statistics)390.40 / "BUSY_TIME" from Operating System Statistics 87174)=0.448
Here are excerpt of my AWR:
image.pngimage.pngimage.pngI have 100 times less for %Total CPU and %Busy CPU.
In Operating System Statistics table , are values in millseconds or in second?
Regards.

Your observation suggests that for your version of Oracle on your operating system the OSS values are reported in hundredths of second.
