Parameter Description
Parameter | Description | Value Range |
|---|---|---|
pool_name | Specifies the name of the resource pool to be modified. | Name of an existing resource pool |
group_name | Specifies the name of a Cgroup. | Name of an existing Cgroup |
stmt | Specifies the maximum number of statements that can be concurrently executed in a resource pool. | Numeral type. The value ranges from –1 to INT_MAX. |
dop | Specifies the maximum number of simple SQL statements that can be concurrently executed in a resource pool. | Numeral type. The value ranges from –1 to INT_MAX. |
memory_size | Specifies the estimated maximum memory for a resource pool. | Value range: a string
|
mem_percent | Specifies the proportion of available resource pool memory to the total memory or group user memory. | The value of mem_percent for a common user is an integer ranging from 0 to 100. The default value is 0. |
io_limits | This parameter has been discarded in the 8.1.2 cluster version and is reserved for compatibility with earlier versions. | - |
io_priority | This parameter has been discarded in the 8.1.2 cluster version and is reserved for compatibility with earlier versions. | - |
except_rule | Specifies the exception rule set. | - |
weight | Specifies the network bandwidth weight of a resource pool. | - |
enable_concurrency_scaling | Specifies whether to enable the elastic concurrency expansion function. This function is supported only by clusters of version 9.1.0.100 or later. The default value is false. | true or false

- You can use double quotation marks (") or single quotation marks (') to set the Cgroup name group_name.
- The value of group_name is case-sensitive.
- When group_name is not specified, the default value "Medium" is used. It is the "Medium" Timeshare Cgroup
of the DefaultClass Cgroup.
- If a database user specifies the Timeshare string (Rush, High, Medium, or Low) in the syntax, for example, if control_group is set to High, the resource pool will be associated with the High Timeshare Cgroup under DefaultClass.
Examples
Create an example resource pool pool_test, whose Cgroup is Medium Timeshare Workload under DefaultClass.
1 2 | DROP RESOURCE POOL IF EXISTS pool_test; CREATE RESOURCE POOL pool_test; |
Specify High Timeshare Workload under DefaultClass as the Cgroup for the resource pool pool_test.
1 | ALTER RESOURCE POOL pool_test WITH (CONTROL_GROUP="High"); |
Disable the elastic concurrent expansion function for jobs in a specified resource pool.
1 | ALTER RESOURCE POOL pool_test WITH (enable_concurrency_scaling=false); |
