@@ -34,21 +34,48 @@ The lanyrd database converter script does not preserve all indexes, so we have
to recreate them ourselves after migrating from MySQL. It is not necessary to
shut down GitLab for this process.
### For non-omnibus installations
On non-omnibus installations (distributed using Git) we retrieve the index
declarations from version control using
`git stash`
.
```
# Clone the database converter on your Postgres-backed GitLab server
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/gitlabhq/mysql-postgresql-converter.git
# Stash changes to db/schema.rb to make sure we can find the right index statements
cd /home/git/gitlab
# Stash changes to db/schema.rb to make sure we can find the right index statements
sudo -u git -H git stash
# Generate the `CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY` statements based on schema.rb
cd /tmp/mysql-to-postgresql-converter
ruby index_create_statements.rb /home/git/gitlab/db/schema.rb > index_create_statements.psql
# Generate add_index.rb
ruby /tmp/mysql-postgresql-converter/add_index_statements.rb db/schema.rb > /tmp/mysql-postgresql-converter/add_index.rb
# Create the indexes
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails runner -e production 'eval $stdin.read' < /tmp/mysql-postgresql-converter/add_index.rb
```
### For omnibus-gitlab installations
On omnibus-gitlab we need to get the index declarations from a file called
`schema.rb.bundled`
. For versions older than 6.9, we need to download the file.
```
# Clone the database converter on your Postgres-backed GitLab server
cd /tmp
/opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/git clone https://github.com/gitlabhq/mysql-postgresql-converter.git
cd /tmp/mysql-postgresql-converter
# Download schema.rb.bundled if necessary
test -e /opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-rails/db/schema.rb.bundled || sudo /opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/curl -o /opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-rails/db/schema.rb.bundled https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/raw/v6.9.1/db/schema.rb
# Generate add_index.rb
/opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/ruby add_index_statements.rb /opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-rails/db/schema.rb.bundled > add_index.rb
#
Execute the SQL statements against the GitLab database
sudo -u git psql -f index_create_statements.psql -d gitlabhq_production
#
Create the indexes
/opt/gitlab/bin/gitlab-rails runner 'eval $stdin.read' < add_index.rb
