Re: SQL: Shared hosting and innodb support

2002-11-29 Thread Peter M. Perchansky
Greetings Michael:

Thank you for your prompt response.

When you state, "With InnoDB tables, all the data is stored in monolithic 
files" does that mean every database, every database table, etc. all reside 
within the same file systems?

Thank you.

AFAIK, there is no easy way to do space management on a per-customer
basis with InnoDB tables.  With MyISAM tables you can easily set a user's
drive space limitations and the tables won't grow anymore at that point.
With InnoDB tables, all the data is stored in monolithic files.

Help with delete query

2002-06-25 Thread Peter M. Perchansky

Greetings:

Thanks to Jay from this list and doing some reading, I resolved the insert 
issue when trying to insert records using a select where the tables are the 
same.

Now I'm trying to clean up the old records, and no matter what delete 
statement I try, it fails:


DELETE FROM Customer_Equipment, Customer WHERE SUBSTRING(Server_ID, 5,4) = 
Customer.User_ID;

DELETE Content, Customer FROM Content, Customer WHERE SUBSTRING(Server_ID, 
5,4) = Customer.User_ID;

I've read http://www.mysql.com/doc/D/E/DELETE.html several times and don't 
know what I'm doing wrong.

Here's an example with the error message:

DELETE Content, Customer FROM Content, Customer WHERE SUBSTRING(Server_ID, 
5,4) = Customer.User_ID;

ERROR 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'Content, Customer 
FROM Content, Customer WHERESUBSTRING(Server_ID, 5,4) = Custo' at line 1

Thoughts on how to fix?

Thank you.

RE: mySQL query help please

2002-06-24 Thread Peter M. Perchansky

Greetings Jay:

RE:  mySQL query help please

I love rules that don't make sense ;-)

So if the end result is to have the records selected appended to the 
Customer_Equipment table, I have to make a temporary table based on the 
characteristics of the Customer_Equipment table... then insert from that 
temporary table.  Correct?

Thank you.

mySQL query help please

2002-06-24 Thread Peter M. Perchansky

Greetings:

RE:  mySQL query help please

INSERT INTO Customer_Equipment SELECT Customer.ID, Server_ID, 
Configuration, Equipment_Type, Group_ID, Location, Rack_Location, 
Network_Status_Name, Creator_ID, Primary_IP_Address FROM 
Customer_Equipment, Customer WHERE SUBSTRING(Server_ID, 5,4) =

The select statement works perfectly, but when I try to combine the select 
statement with an INSERT INTO statement (I've done this in the past), I get 
the error message:

ERROR 1066: Not unique table/alias: 'Customer_Equipment'

What does this error message mean, and how should I accomplish my insert 
into statement so I can use the results of the select statement above?

Thank you.

Question on mySQL replication

2001-12-14 Thread Peter M. Perchansky

Greetings everyone:

RE:  http://www.mysql.com/doc/R/e/Replication.html

How frequently does each slave get data from the master?

If the server the master was on went down unexpectedly, how much data would 
still be on the master that the slave(s) may not have picked up?

Thank you.

Linux vs. Sun and getting Linux to behave like Sun

2001-12-06 Thread Peter M. Perchansky

Greetings everyone:

I've noticed that when mySQL runs on Sun Solaris (6, 7, and 8) there will 
be two processes running (safe_mysqld and mysqld).

And this number of processes running will very rarely change, if at all, 
without concern over the number of connections or how heavily mySQL is 
being utilized.

On Linux there appears to be a correlation to the number of mysqld 
processes and how heavily mySQL is being hit (connections, queries, etc.).

Questions:

1.  Are my observations correct?

2.  Is there a way to compile mySQL on Linux so that it behaves like on Sun 
where by there is the safe_mysqld and mysqld process only no matter the 
activity?  If so, how?

Thank you.

Help with complex SQL Query

2001-04-12 Thread Peter M. Perchansky

Greetings:

Prelude: We have five tables all sharing a very similar structure (each has 
a Customer_ID and Server_ID field for example).

Each table can contain zero to many records with duplicate Server_ID values 
allowed.

Need: I need to be able to count the distinct Server_ID's across all of the 
tables.

Problems: A customer can have one Server_ID in one table, ten Server_ID's 
(some duplicate) in another table and so on. The customer will have the 
same Customer_ID in all tables.

I've tried inner joins, left joins, et all to no avail.

The syntax below will only show two Server_ID's for a customer that has 
close to 10.

SELECT DISTINCT Application.Server_ID FROM Application LEFT JOIN Content ON 
Application.Customer_ID = Content.Customer_ID LEFT JOIN Performance ON 
Content.Customer_ID = Performance.Customer_ID LEFT JOIN Ping ON 
Performance.Customer_ID = Ping.Customer_ID LEFT JOIN Port ON 
Ping.Customer_ID = Port.Customer_ID WHERE Application.Customer_ID = 1 OR 
Content.Customer_ID = 1 OR Performance.Customer_ID = 1 OR Ping.Customer_ID 
= 1 OR Port.Customer_ID = 1;

What is the correct SQL to get a list of all of the distinct Server_ID's 
across the five tables?

Thank you.

Order by clause for datetime stamp format

Greetings:

I'm using the datetime format and the data is stored in mySQL as CCYY-MM-DD 
HH:MM:SS

I want to use a SELECT statement where the ORDER BY clause is based on the 
date portion (CCYY-MM-DD).

How would I write the clause to ignore the time portion?
