EDB-2 node

https://www.dbi-services.com/blog/setup-a-two-node-postgres-ha-cluster-using-edb-advanced-server-and-efm/

Some time ago I had a customer looking for a two node PostgreSQL Master/Replica solution. As we need Oracle compatibility in a later step, we decided to go with the EnterpriseDB tools. This article should give you an introduction on how to setup the environment.

Prerequisites

There are just some few things, that you need to prepare.
You need (at least) three servers with:

  • EPEL repository available
  • Subscription for EDB
  • EDB repository available

To make everything working with our DMK some folders and links are needed:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
mkdir -p /u01/app/postgres/product/as11
mkdir -p /u01as11
mkdir -p /usr/edb
mkdir -p /u02/pgdata/11/PG1
ln -s /u02/pgdata/11/PG1/ /u01as11/data
ln -s /u01/app/postgres/product/as11/ /usr/edb/as11
yum install -y unzip xorg-x11-xauth screen

EDB Advanced Server

Installation

Let’s start with the installation of the EDB Advanced Server  This is really straight forward:

1
2
3
4
5
$ yum install edb-as11-server
$ chown enterprisedb:enterprisedb /u02/pgdata/11/epg1/
$ chown -R enterprisedb:enterprisedb /u01/app/
$ rm -rf /u01as11/backups/
$ passwd enterprisedb

Now you can install and configure our DMK. Make sure to adjust var::PGUSER::=::nooption::”enterprisedb” in the dmk.conf.

As soon as the installation is done, you can initialize a new primary cluster.

Success. You can now start the database server using:
 
    /u01/app/postgres/product/as11/bin/pg_ctl -D /u02/pgdata/PG1/ -l logfile start
 
enterprisedb@ad1:/var/lib/edb/ [PG1]

Than adjust wal_keep_segments and afterwards the edb-as service can be enabled and started.

1
2
3
$ echo "wal_keep_segments=100" >> $PGDATA/postgresql.auto.conf
$ sudo systemctl enable edb-as-11.service
$ sudo systemctl start edb-as-11

To be sure everything works as expected, reboot the server (if possible).

All above steps should also be done on your additional nodes, but without the systemctl start.

Configuration

First, on Node 1 (Master) you need to create the replication role.

1
2
postgres=# create role replication with REPLICATioN PASSWORD 'replication' login;
CREATE ROLE

Second, you need to add replication to pg_hba.conf.

1
2
3
4
5
local   replication    all             127.0.0.1/32            trust
host    replication    all             192.168.22.53/32        trust
host    replication    all             192.168.22.51/32        trust
host    replication    all             192.168.22.52/32        trust
host    replication    all             ::1/128                 trust

And last but not least, your should exchange the ssh-key of all nodes:

1
2
3
4
enterprisedb@edb1:/u01 [PG1] ssh-keygen
enterprisedb@edb1:/u01 [PG1] ssh-copy-id enterprisedb@edb1
enterprisedb@edb1:/u01 [PG1] ssh-copy-id enterprisedb@edb2
enterprisedb@edb1:/u01 [PG1] ssh-copy-id enterprisedb@edb3

Create the replica

As already mentioned, you need almost all steps done on Node 2 as well, but without starting the service.
Make sure to have all hosts in pg_hba.conf of Master.

To create the replication create a pg_basebackup into Node 2:

1
2
enterprisedb@edb2:/u01 [PG1] pg_basebackup -h 192.168.22.51 -U replication -p 5432 -D $PGDATA -Fp -Xs -P -R
49414/49414 kB (100%), 1/1 tablespace

Once finish, check if the recovery.conf is available and add the following lines:

1
2
enterprisedb@edb2:/u01 [PG1] echo "recovery_target_timeline = 'latest'" >> /u02/pgdata/11/PG1/recovery.conf
enterprisedb@edb2:/u01 [PG1] echo "trigger_file='/u02/pgdata/11/PG1/trigger_failover'" >> /u02/pgdata/11/PG1/recovery.conf

To test, if the recovery is working, start the cluster and check the recovery status.

enterprisedb@edb2:/u01 [PG1] pgstart

 pg_is_in_recovery
-------------------
 t
(1 row)
 
enterprisedb@edb2:/u01 [PG1] sudo systemctl enable edb-as-11.service
enterprisedb@edb2:/u01 [PG1] pgstop
enterprisedb@edb2:/u01 [PG1] systemctl start edb-as-11

EDB Postgres Failover Manager (EFM)

To make our two Node setup High Available, we need to install the EDB Postgres Failover Manager  on three nodes. On the both installed with the Master / Replica and on a third one as a witness server.

Installation

Installation for EFM is straight forward as well, therefore your have to do the following steps on all three nodes. To use EFM toghether with our DMK, you need to create some links.

1
2

$ sudo yum install edb-efm37
$ sudo yum install java-1.8.0-openjdk
$ sudo chown -R enterprisedb:enterprisedb /etc/edb/efm-3.7/
$ cat /etc/edb/efm-3.7/efm.nodes
$ sudo ln -s /usr/edb/efm-3.7 /usr/edb/efm
$ sudo ln -s /etc/edb/efm-3.7 /etc/edb/efm

Configuration

On the master you have to set a password for the enterprisedb user and encrypt the password using EFM.

1
2
$ psql -U enterprisedb -c "alter user enterprisedb with password '*******'" postgres
$ /usr/edb/efm/bin/efm encrypt efm

The enrypted password generated by efm encrypt will be needed in the efm.properties files

As next step we need an efm.properties file on Node 1 and 2 (parameters to adjust below).

$ cp /u01/app/postgres/local/dmk/templates/postgres/efm.properties.in /etc/edb/efm-3.7/efm.properties
$ vi /etc/edb/efm-3.7/efm.properties
  db.user=enterprisedb
  db.password.encrypted=f17db6033ef1be48ec1955d38b4c9c46
  db.port=5400
  db.database=postgres
  db.bin=/u01/app/postgres/product/as11/bin
  db.recovery.dir=/u02/pgdata/11/EPAS
  bind.address=192.168.22.51:7800
  admin.port=7809
  is.witness=false
  virtualIp=192.168.22.55
  virtualIp.interface=enp0s8
  virtualIp.prefix=24
  virtualIp.single=true
$ sudo chown enterprisedb:enterprisedb /etc/edb/efm/efm.properties

We also need a efm.nodes file to have all nodes of the cluster.

1
2
3
4
5
6
$ cat /etc/edb/efm/efm.nodes
# List of node address:port combinations separated by whitespace.
# The list should include at least the membership coordinator's address.
192.168.22.51:7800 192.168.22.52:7800 192.168.22.53:7800
$ chown efm:efm efm.nodes
$ chmod 660 /etc/edb/efm/efm.nodes

To conclude, enable and start the efm-3.7.service.

1
2
sudo systemctl enable efm-3.7.service
sudo systemctl start efm-3.7.service

On node 3 we need to create a efm.properties file as well, but we need the efm.properties_witness file of dmk as draft.

1
$ cp /u01/app/postgres/local/dmk/templates/postgres/efm.properties_witness /etc/edb/efm-3.7/efm.properties

Adjust the parameters as shown in the step for node 1 and 2, but be careful to have:

1
is.witness=true

Afterwards start the efm-3.7 service on node 3 as well.

1
$ sudo systemctl start efm-3.7.service

In the end, you can check if everything is running as expected using EFM.

        Standby database(s) in sync with master. It is safe to promote.

That’s it, now you have a Master/Replica system using EDB tools.

In a next step we will have a look at the setup of the cluster monitoring using EDB Enterprise Manager.
