Postgres graphing.

2001-12-12 Thread Nicolas Bouthors

Sorry to be a little off topic.

I'm looking for a tool that would connect to a postgres base, list the
tables/constraints of it and make a nice .jpeg file showing the data model
out of it. All this would be automagical off course...

Does such a beast exists ? Anything near ?

http://freshmeat.net/projects/postgresql_autodoc/ looks like it, at least
based on its description - haven't tried it myself.

Limiting Outgoing and Incoming Bandwidth in Linux (for 2.2+ Kernels)
 Brian Wilson - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - 12/5/2000


Overview

The point of this document is to walk you through setting up bandwidth
limiting for outgoing and incoming network packets under Linux 2.2.x+
kernel series.  The limiting of the outgoing bandwidth is accomplished
using the built-in QoS Class Based Queueing (CBQ) functions in the 2.2.x
kernel.  The limiting of the incoming bandwidth is accomplished using a
stand-alone kernel module called rshaper.  NOTE: rshaper also requires
slight modififications to your network driver source code.


Before You Begin

You first need to download a few utilities.
- iproute
  ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/ftp.inr.ac.ru/ip-routing/iproute2-current.tar.gz
(and if you wish to limit incoming traffic as well, you'll need rshaper)
- rshaper
  ftp://ftp.prosa.it/pub/software/rshaper-1.07.tar.gz


Installation

You'll first need to configure your kernel for QoS and CBQ.  This is
accomplished under the Networking Options menu. Here you need to enable
Routing Messages and the Kernel/User netlink socket.  Next, under QoS
and/or Fair Queueing menu, you need to enable all of the options.  Below
is the Networking Options portion of my kernel config. You should probably
mimic this setup (unless you want to build them as modules).  If you do
choose to build them as modules, then you'll have to load all the specifc
QoS modules (sch_cbq sch_tbf sch_sfq sch_prio cls_u32) after your machine
boots (or allow them to be autoloaded).  Since I don't like dealing with
a slew of modules, I usually try to compile everything in staticly.
