Postgres 10 setup and testrun on Redhat Linux 7

-
This is just a quick guide to get up and running with Postgres 10 on redhat linux 7

As of the writing of this quick guide, yum install postgresql-server does not allow you to install version 10.

Instead, we do

As root:

yum install -y https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/10/redhat/rhel-7-x86_64/pgdg-redhat10-10-2.noarch.rpm


 Install Client Package

yum install -y postgresql10


 Install Server Package

 yum install -y postgresql10-server


I always seem to have to initialize the database manually, so here it is.

/usr/pgsql-10/bin/postgresql-10-setup initdb


We need to now switch to os user postgres

su - postgres

Run psql command line console, aka PostgreSQL interactive terminal

-bash-4.2$ psql
psql (10.5)
Type "help" for help.

postgres=

MongoDB tip: 4 ways to modify replica set configuration

-
This is just a quick guide on how to modify your replica set settings in 4 different ways. This guide is assuming you have a functional replica set ready, it doesn't matter if it's a single node or multi-node replica set. In each of the four method, I am looking to modify the priority of the _id=0 node Method 1: Via Mongo Shell Login to your Mongo shell,  simply type in mongo , assuming default port is being used and authentication is not enabled [in Mongo shell] cfg = rs.conf() cfg.members[0].priority=99 rs.reconfig(cfg) # "ok":1 indicates the new configuration has been set  MongoDB Enterprise minvera:PRIMARY> rs.reconfig(cfg) {         "ok" : 1,         "operationTime" : Timestamp(1528464949, 1),         "$clusterTime" : {                 "clusterTime" : Timestamp(1528464949, 1),                 "signature" : {                         "hash" : BinData(0

MongoDB Quick Note: BI Connector Issue

-
This is just a quick note of what can stop mongosqld from working properly that I wasn't aware of. Background: My work runs everything mongodb inside of docker containers, so sometimes it's not as straight forward to see immediately of what's preventing your container from working properly What happened: I ran into issue that my container does not stay up after I updated my drdl to reflect new fields introduced to the underlying collection. How to debug: Go to the host server, copy out entrypoint.sh and add sleep 100000000 to before mongosqld is executed. This force the container to stay up for us to look into issue. Cause of the issue: When I updated the drdl, I used tab instead of space, which is causing the mongsqld to error out Fix: Just replace tab with space and everything is back to normal

MongoDB Tips: Kill long running processes

-
This is just a quick and simple script to find all active opid that has been running over 10 seconds and they are running against the databases and collections you can specify in the "ns" filter. It's best to first run db.currentOp(    {      "active" : true,      "secs_running" : { "$gt" : 10 },      "ns" : {$in:["equipment.detachment","personnel.detail","personnel.unavailability","personnel.detachment"]}    } ).inprog.forEach(function (doc) { print(doc.opid); }) and verify your output before you execute the kill command in my experience to make sure you are killing the processes that are meant to be killed. Once verifed, simply run: db.currentOp(    {      "active" : true,      "secs_running" : { "$gt" : 10 },      "ns" : {$in:["<db1>.<col1>","<db2>.<col2>","<dbn>.<coln>
