    Purpose

    The CREATE RESOURCE POOL statement is used to create a resource pool, which describes a collection of resource units that can be allocated to tenants.

    After a resource pool is created, it can be allocated to a tenant. Each resource pool can only be bound to one tenant. The total amount of resources allocated to a tenant across all zones is calculated as: Unit specification * Number of units.

    Limitations and considerations

    If the reserved resources on the corresponding nodes are insufficient, the resource pool creation will fail. You can query the GV$OB_SERVERS view to confirm the resource allocation information of each node.

    Privilege requirements

    Only the root user of the sys tenant (root@sys) can create a resource pool. Other tenants do not support creating resource pools.

    Syntax

    CREATE RESOURCE POOL pool_name
    UNIT [=] unit_name,
    UNIT_NUM [=] unit_num,
    ZONE_LIST [=] ('zone_name' [, 'zone_name' ...]);
    

    Parameters

    Parameter Description
    pool_name Specifies the name of the resource pool to be created.
    UNIT [=] unit_name Specifies the resource specification name of the resource pool to be created.
    UNIT_NUM [=] unitnum Specifies the number of units in the resource pool within a single zone. The value must be less than the number of nodes in the target zone, and each node can have at most one unit allocated to the same tenant.
    ZONE_LIST [=] ('zone' [, 'zone' ...]) Specifies the zone distribution of the resource pool to be created.

    Examples

    Create a resource pool named pool1 with a resource specification of unit1, 1 unit, and distributed in zone1.

    obclient [oceanbase]> CREATE RESOURCE POOL pool1 UNIT='unit1', UNIT_NUM=1, ZONE_LIST=('zone1');
    

    After the resource pool is created, query the information of the created resource pool.

    obclient [oceanbase]> SELECT * FROM oceanbase.DBA_OB_RESOURCE_POOLS WHERE NAME='pool1';
    

    The query result is as follows:

    +------------------+------------+-----------+----------------------------+----------------------------+------------+----------------+-----------+--------------+
    | RESOURCE_POOL_ID |      NAME  | TENANT_ID | CREATE_TIME                | MODIFY_TIME                | UNIT_COUNT | UNIT_CONFIG_ID | ZONE_LIST | REPLICA_TYPE |
    +------------------+------------+-----------+----------------------------+----------------------------+------------+----------------+-----------+--------------+
    |             1007 |      pool1 |      1018 | 2023-11-09 10:26:35.427350 | 2023-11-09 10:26:40.654066 |          1 |           1006 | zone1     | FULL         |
