Mysql5.5使用裸设备存储

Mysql的innodb支持把表和索引存储在裸设备中，存储的I/O等待问题一直是影响数据库性能的关键，裸设备不需要经过文件系统I/O处理，因而在性能上有一定的提升，在使用rhel中的kvm虚拟机的时候有明显的感觉，使用裸设备+virtio的性能基本与物理机没差别；在Oracle中，裸设备从11g开始就不被支持，而10g rac的ocr和votedisk还必须使用裸设备存储，Oracle推荐使用ASM来提升存储的I/O性能，ASM支持条带，冗余和在线添加删除磁盘组等等高级功能，同时有具有一定的可管理性；相比之下Mysql的裸设备就比较脆弱，或许在分布式基础上，Mysql单实例的数据量还不需要用裸设备来提升I/0性能，下面来演示下如何在Mysql上使用裸设备存储innodb存储类型的表和索引

一：创建LVM卷，并使用raw来绑定，其中raw1-raw5为oracle的asm磁盘

[root@dg53 ~]# lvcreate -n mydata -L 1G VolGroup00
  Volume Groups with the clustered attribute will be inaccessible.
  Logical volume "mydata" created

[root@dg53 ~]# lvs
  Skipping clustered volume group new_vg
  LV       VG         Attr   LSize  Origin Snap%  Move Log Copy%  Convert
  LogVol00 VolGroup00 -wi-ao 29.28G
  LogVol01 VolGroup00 -wi-ao 29.28G
  mydata   VolGroup00 -wi-a-  1.00G

[root@dg53 ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices
/dev/raw/raw1   /dev/sdb1
/dev/raw/raw2   /dev/sdc1
/dev/raw/raw3   /dev/sdd1
/dev/raw/raw4   /dev/sde1
/dev/raw/raw5   /dev/sdf1

/dev/raw/raw6  /dev/VolGroup00/mydata

[root@dg53 ~]# service rawdevices restart
Assigning devices:
           /dev/raw/raw1  -->   /dev/sdb1
/dev/raw/raw1:  bound to major 8, minor 17
           /dev/raw/raw2  -->   /dev/sdc1
/dev/raw/raw2:  bound to major 8, minor 33
           /dev/raw/raw3  -->   /dev/sdd1
/dev/raw/raw3:  bound to major 8, minor 49
           /dev/raw/raw4  -->   /dev/sde1
/dev/raw/raw4:  bound to major 8, minor 65
           /dev/raw/raw5  -->   /dev/sdf1
/dev/raw/raw5:  bound to major 8, minor 81
           /dev/raw/raw6  -->   /dev/VolGroup00/mydata
/dev/raw/raw6:  bound to major 253, minor 2
done

[root@dg53 ~]# raw -qa
/dev/raw/raw1:  bound to major 8, minor 17
/dev/raw/raw2:  bound to major 8, minor 33
/dev/raw/raw3:  bound to major 8, minor 49
/dev/raw/raw4:  bound to major 8, minor 65
/dev/raw/raw5:  bound to major 8, minor 81
/dev/raw/raw6:  bound to major 253, minor 2

[root@dg53 ~]# chown mysql.mysql /dev/raw/raw6

二：修改my.cnf文件，在[mysqld]中添加如下两项！关于数据库的存储是否需要使用裸设备应当在数据库创建前规划好

[root@dg53 ~]# grep 'innodb_data' /etc/my.cnf
innodb_data_home_dir =
innodb_data_file_path = /dev/raw/raw6:1Gnewraw

三：初始化mysql数据库，启动mysql服务，在日志中可以看到格式化过程，在未将前面两项配置中的newraw改为raw之前，无法创建innodb类型的表

[root@dg53 mysql-5.5.25]# sh ./scripts/mysql_install_db --user=mysql --basedir=/usr/local/mysql5.5.25/ --datadir=/mydata/

[root@dg53 mysql-5.5.25]# service mysqld start
Starting MySQL....................[  OK  ]

mysql> use bbs;

四：关闭数据库后，修改my.cnf文件，重新启动数据库，建表并插入数据测试

[root@dg53 ~]# service mysqld stop

[root@dg53 ~]# grep 'innodb_data' /etc/my.cnf
innodb_data_home_dir =
innodb_data_file_path = /dev/raw/raw6:1Graw

[root@dg53 ~]# service mysqld start

五：使用strings命令萃取裸设备中可打印的字符

[root@dg53 ~]# strings /dev/raw/raw6 |grep dg53.yang.com |head
Vdg53.yang.com
rdg53.yang.com                                               root
dg53.yang.com
dg53.yang.com                                               root
dg53.yang.com
dg53.yang.com                                               root
Rdg53.yang.com
dg53.yang.com                                               root
Vdg53.yang.com
rdg53.yang.com                                               root
