@@ -34,21 +34,47 @@ 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 source installations
On source 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 older versions, 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
# 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
# If schema.rb.bundled does not exist, download it as follows, then try generating add_index.rb again
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
# Execute the SQL statements against the GitLab database
sudo -u git psql -f index_create_statements.psql -d gitlabhq_production
/opt/gitlab/bin/gitlab-rails runner 'eval $stdin.read' < add_index.rb
```
