This commit limits queries to only process one shard at a time.
However, within a shard, multiple series can still be processed in
parallel. Shard iterators are lazily instantiated during query
execution to limit the amount of memory a given query uses.
Normalize the output for the various help options so they all follow the
same format and display all relevant options.
Removing some of the unused config options from the configuration file
and updating the help documentation. Removing some remaining references
to clustering within the open source version.
The tsdb package had a substantial amount of dead code related to the
old query engine still in there. It is no longer used, so it was removed
since it was left unmaintained. There is likely still more code that is
the same, but wasn't found as part of this code cleanup.
influxql has dead code show up because of the code generation so it is
not included in this pruning.
The highest time represented by a nanosecond needs to be used for an
exclusive range, so the maximum time needs to be one less than the
possible maximum number of nanoseconds representable by an int64 so that
we don't lose a point at that one time.
Previously worked in the open source version because the timestamp used
for finding a shard would be truncated by the retention policy so the
lookup time didn't run into this edge case because it didn't rest on the
truncation boundary. Since that point didn't really belong in that shard
group and was placed there by mistake, it's best to fix this bug since
the timestamp used to create the shard group should be capable of
retrieving it.
The default retention policy name is changed to "autogen" instead of
"default" since it ends up being ambiguous when we tell a user to check
the default retention policy, it is uncertain if we are referring to the
default retention policy (which can be changed) or the retention policy
with the name "default".
Now the automatically generated retention policy name is "autogen".
The default retention policy is now also configurable through the
configuration file so an administrator can customize what they think
should be the default.
Fixes#3733.
This has various benefits:
- Users embedding InfluxDB within other Go programs can specify a different logger / prefix easily.
- More consistent with code used elsewhere in InfluxDB (e.g. services, other `run.Server.*` fields, etc).
- This is also more efficient, because it means `executeQuery` no longer allocates a single `*log.Logger` each time it is called.
Partially fixes#6094.
Prior to this when passing the same query and CQ name in a CREATE
CONTINUOUS QUERY command an error would be returned. This means the
command was not behaving in a similar way to other commands.a
Now when running the command with the same CQ name and query string no
error will be returned. Note, this change does not parse the query, it
simply compares a normalised query string to the existing one on the CQ.
Partially addresses #6094.
Previously, when creating a retention policy only the name was
considered when deciding if the policy already existed. This meant that
adding a second policy with the same name but different duration or
replica factor returned the original policy and no error.
This commit fixes that and ensures that name, duration and replica
factor are all considered.
Allows configuration of shard group duration at database creation, and retention
policy create/alter time.
Query examples:
```
CREATE DATABASE testdb WITH DURATION 90d SHARD DURATION 30m NAME rp_testdb
CREATE RETENTION POLICY rp_testdb2 ON testdb DURATION INF REPLICATION 1 SHARD DURATION 30m
ALTER RETENTION POLICY rp_testdb2 ON testdb SHARD DURATION 1h
```
This can be useful with long duration retention policies with lots of data, where
you can split into smaller shards to relieve memory pressure.
