Hmmm ok so I’m not quite sure where to start here…
A bit of background to our setup…
2 Datacentres, 15 servers in each, only one datacentre active.
In Active DC - Master DB is a HP DL360, 2 x 6 Core 4800Mhz CPU , 64Gb RAM - all other servers in the DC are slaves to this.
12 of the slaves are also DL360’s - exactly the same config (RAM, CPU) , 2 of the servers are DL385: 64Gb RAM, 2 x 16 Core 3500Mhz CPU
In Standby DC we have exactly the same - 13 DL360’s and 2 DL385’s - All the same spec
One of the DL360’s is a Slave to the Master in the Active DC, all other servers are slaved from that.
Everything is good so far…
We’re using our standby DC to try and bottom out some performance issues - specifically the two DL385s are under performing by orders of magnitude compared to the DL360s.
In addition, on one of the DL385’s, If I up the innodb_buffer_pool to 35Gb - Mysql won’t start, yet on the other DL385 it’s fine.
In terms of my.cnf parameters - apart from the obvious bin logging enabled on the masters, everything is the same and controlled by puppet.
I’m kind of lost as to:
a) why won’t mysql start with anything greater than 35Gb buffer pool on one server, but on another identical one it’s fine
b) why are the DL385’s performing so badly
I know the information I have provided is probably only a fraction of what is needed for a much more detailed investigation but just as a top level guess, can anyone think of anything that I’m missing?
We’re using 5.5.30-rel30.2.500 on all boxes.
Key my.cnf params as follows (This is from a server that starts fine with a 35Gb Buffer pool):
innodb_additional_mem_pool_size=33554432
innodb_buffer_pool_size=37580963840
innodb_log_buffer_size=16777216
join_buffer_size=131072
key_buffer_size=8388608
sort_buffer_size=2097152
This is the error we get when we increase the buffer pool to 35Gb or more on one of the DL385s:

This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary
or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built,
or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.
We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help
diagnose the problem, but since we have already crashed,
something is definitely wrong and this may fail.
Please help us make Percona Server better by reporting any
bugs at http://bugs.percona.com/
key_buffer_size=8388608

It is possible that mysqld could use up to
key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_threads = 6577353 K bytes of memory
Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation.
