Is there a way to get the cmdlet for data deduplication when running an Unoptimization job?
I deactivated data deduplication on one of my drives because it doesn't work well with the backup system. I then started an unoptimization job in Administrative PowerShell. After that I realized I didn't put the priority up high so the job runs faster since there is no load on that server at the moment. So I tried stop...
Make sure the Deduplication module is imported in Powershell, otherwise the commands will not be available: Import-Module Deduplication

pgbench: generating a random padded string
I have the IMDb database in PostgreSQL 16, and I am trying to generate random strings for performance benchmark. The relevant table is [CODE] with the primary key column [CODE] , VARCHAR(9). [CODE] has values in the form of 'tt0000000', where the zeroes represent numbers, e.g., 'tt0000001' and 'tt9999999'. I want to wr...
[CODE] in a [CODE] condition will be executed for each row, returning a different value every time, which prevents the use of an index scan. The traditional workaround is a subquery: if that does not reference any outside columns, it is executed only once ( [CODE] ), so that the result is constant and an index can be u...

Are GCE instances connected to Google Cloud SQL via trusted network?
I want to connect Cloud SQL from PHP application on GCE instances. The PHP application cannot connect to Cloud SQL via SSL connection due to old library version.

No, the networking route from GCE to Cloud SQL should not be considered trusted. You should work towards upgrading your PHP application.

How to ban hardware interrupts with IRQBALANCE_BANNED_CPUS on Ubuntu?

Should I never put a transactional replication distributor on a subscriber server?
What factors into choosing a distribution server for transactional replication? In our topology, we've always had the distributor reside on the publishing server. We rarely generate snapshots and performance is good enough, so this is okay for us today. One of our instances is moving to a windows cluster with availabil...
I'd keep the distributor as close to the publisher as possible. My reason for saying this is that one of the conditions for a log reuse is whether or not all of the records in the VLF have been processed by the log reader. If, for some reason, your line goes down between your publisher and the distributor, your log is ...

restarting postgresql quickly
I'm reading over the postgresql admin cookbook. Some of the database server parameters require a restart and with a busy database, you may need to restart quickly. There are a number of things to do to speed up restart: 1) issue a normal checkpoint before shutdown checkpoint, 2) flush all dirty shared_buffers to disk, ...
If your clients cope well with being disconnected, and don't lose data, you should probably use the first process: Force a checkpoint, then perform an immediate restart. That'll get the server back up and running faster than a [CODE] restart will, at the cost of greater disruption to currently active clients. Client ap...

The Closure Compiler is a minifier , an optimiser and a validator all-in-one.

You can't reference a column alias on the same level where you introduced it. You need to wrap your query into a derived table. Note that the columns in the SELECT list of your sub-query are pretty useless as you are only using the [CODE] column in the outer query: [CODE]

How to alias directories in nginx?
I for the life of me cannot figure out how to make aliases for locations. Basically, I have [CODE] on my server, which could contain any number of folders (for different applications). One of those is ViMbAdmin, located in [CODE] , and the actual web files that should be served to the client are in [CODE] . Here's what...
The location directive matches against the uri in the request. The root directive and alias directives are both used to indicate where in the filesystem to serve resources from, the difference being that when using [CODE] , the entire URI is still appended to the root; whereas when using [CODE] , the location part is d...

With a virtual guest, you have to look at the underlying server to ensure it is not over-allocated. I would look at the CPU, RAM and IO stats for the host to ensure your guest isn't starved for resources. Is it possible some other guest is grabbing the CPU at certain time?

If you have deleted the resource group, and it has completed OK then this should not be using your core quota.

ZFS: Mirror vs. RAID-Z
I'm planning on building a file server using OpenSolaris and ZFS that will provide two primary services - be an iSCSI target for XenServer virtual machines & be a general home file server. The hardware I'm looking at includes 2x 4-port SATA controllers, 2x small boot drives (one on each controller), and 4x big drives f...
The simple answer is that to mirror something takes almost no processing power - it just writes to the disk a second time. For RAID-Z2, you have to compute an entirely new parity block, which although small CAN bog down the CPU when you have to write large amounts of data quickly. Mirroring is always the preferred solu...
