postgresql同样支持在线备份,该备份方式与oracle中用户热备的方式相同,手动拷贝数据文库文件与归档日志。可以根据测试过程将备份直接写成script,通过定制,完成数据库的自动备份。
postgresql的恢复支持基于时间戳与事务ID,可以通过时间戳或事务ID的方式,完成数据库的不完全恢复或者因错误操作的故障恢复。
该测试目的:postgresql的在线备份;通过在线备份完成恢复。
1,开启归档
[postgre@daduxiong ~]$ more /usr/local/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf |grep archive_
archive_mode = on # allows archiving to be done
archive_command = 'cp -i %p /archive/%f >/dev/null'
2,重新启动数据库
[root@daduxiong ~]# service postgresql
stopStopping PostgreSQL: server stopped
ok
[root@daduxiong ~]# service postgresql
startStarting PostgreSQL: ok
3,启动备份
[postgre@daduxiong archive]$ psql postgres -c "select pg_start_backup('hot_backup');"
pg_start_backup
-----------------
0/7000020
(1 row)
4,使用tar命令备份数据库文件,不包含pg_xlog目录
[postgre@daduxiong archive]$ tar --exclude $PGDATA/pg_xlog -cvjpf /archive/pgbackup.tar.bz2 $PGDATA
5,完成备份
[postgre@daduxiong archive]$ psql postgres -c "select pg_stop_backup();"
pg_stop_backup
----------------
0/70133A0
(1 row)
6,在postgres数据库中创建表并插入记录,作为恢复时的判断。
[postgre@daduxiong archive]$ psql postgres
Welcome to psql 8.3.10, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.
Type: \copyright for distribution terms
\h for help with SQL commands
\? for help with psql commands
\g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
\q to quit
postgres=# create table abc(id integer);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# insert into abc values(1);
INSERT 0 1
postgres=# \q
7,此时假设数据库出现问题,停止数据库,拷贝日志
[root@daduxiong pgsql]# service postgresql stop
Stopping PostgreSQL: server stopped
ok
[postgre@daduxiong archive]$ cp $PGDATA/pg_xlog/*00* /archive/
8,删除"发生错误"的data目录
[root@daduxiong pgsql]# rm -rf data
9,解压之前的备份文件压缩包
[postgre@daduxiong pgsql]$ tar -xvf /archive/pgbackup.tar.bz2
....省略
/usr/local/pgsql/data/global/2843
/usr/local/pgsql/data/postmaster.opts
/usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_twophase/
/usr/local/pgsql/data/postmaster.pid
/usr/local/pgsql/data/backup_label
/usr/local/pgsql/data/PG_VERSION
10,恢复data目录,重新创建pg_xlog目录及其子目录archive_status
[root@daduxiong pgsql]# mv /archive/usr/local/pgsql/data /usr/local/pgsql
[root@daduxiong data]# mkdir pg_xlog
[root@daduxiong data]# chmod 0700 pg_xlog/
[root@daduxiong data]# chown postgre:postgre pg_xlog/
[root@daduxiong data]# cd pg_xlog/
[root@daduxiong pg_xlog]# mkdir archive_status
[root@daduxiong pg_xlog]# chmod 0700 archive_status/
[root@daduxiong pg_xlog]# chown postgre:postgre archive_status/
[root@daduxiong pg_xlog]# mv /archive/*00* /usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_xlog
[root@daduxiong pg_xlog]# cd ..
[root@daduxiong data]# ls
backup_label pg_clog pg_multixact pg_twophase postgresql.conf
base pg_hba.conf pg_subtrans PG_VERSION postmaster.opts
global pg_ident.conf pg_tblspc pg_xlog postmaster.pid
11,配置恢复配置文件
[root@daduxiong data]# touch recovery.conf
[root@daduxiong data]# echo "restore_command='cp -i /archive/%f %p'" >>recovery.conf
[root@daduxiong data]# chown postgre:postgre recovery.conf
[root@daduxiong data]# chmod 0750 recovery.conf
12,启动数据库,观察数据库启动的日志
[root@daduxiong data]# service postgresql
startStarting PostgreSQL: ok
---省略日志部分内容
LOG: selected new timeline ID: 3
LOG: restored log file "00000002.history" from archive
LOG: archive recovery complete
LOG: autovacuum launcher started
LOG: database system is ready to accept connections
cp: overwrite `/archive/000000010000000000000008'? cp: overwrite `/archive/000000010000000000000009'? cp: overwrite `/archive/000000020000000000000009'? cp: overwrite `/archive/00000002000000000000000A'?
13,验证恢复结果。检查之前创建的表与记录。
[postgre@daduxiong archive]$ psql postgres
Welcome to psql 8.3.10, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.
Type: \copyright for distribution terms
\h for help with SQL commands
\? for help with psql commands
\g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
\q to quit
postgres=# select * from abc;
id
----
1
(1 row)
postgres=# \q
[root@daduxiong data]# ls -l
total 80

-rwxr-x--- 1 postgre postgre 39 Aug 31 10:34 recovery.done
说明:
该测试中采用的是系统安装默认的数据,如果是生产库需要注意备份所有的表空间,不能仅仅备份软连接.
数据库完成备份后,recovery.conf文件变成recovery.done,backup_label文件变成了backup_lable.old.
oracle的备份通常采用RMAN工具备份,该工具功能强大,使用方便,得到大家的认可。
开源项目组也为postgresql开发了一款类似的工具pg-rman,其功能也很强大,使用方式和特点与ORACLE的RMAN非常类似。
