One of the operating systems shown below is required in order to use FUJITSU Enterprise Postgres. Check and use minor version, which is certified and currently supported by Red Hat or SUSE for IBM Power LE (POWER9 and POWER10).
RHEL8.4 or later minor version
SLES 15 SP3
Note
The sepgsql module, which is a PostgreSQL extension, can be used in RHEL8.
Information
The following packages are required for operations on RHEL8.
Package name | Remarks |
---|---|
alsa-lib | - |
audit-libs | - |
cyrus-sasl-lib | - |
pcp-system-tools | Required when using parallel scan. |
gdb | Required when using pgx_fjqssinf command. |
glibc | - |
iputils | Required for Mirroring Controller. |
libnsl2 | - |
libicu | Provides collation support. |
libgcc | - |
libmemcached | Required when using Pgpool-II. |
libstdc++ | - |
libtool-ltdl | Required when using ODBC drivers. |
llvm | Versions 12.0.x or 11.0.x of llvm is required to run SQL with runtime compilation (just-in-time compilation). Install the package that contains libLLVM-12.so, or libLLVM-11.so. For example, version 12.0.x of "llvm-libs" published with Application Streams includes libLLVM-12.so. By default, version 12.0.x is used. If you use a version other than 12.0.x, specify the version you want to use in the jit_provider parameter in postgresql.conf. For example, use llvmjit-vsn11 when using version 11.0.x.FUJITSU Enterprise Postgres uses runtime compilation by default.If you do not want to use runtime compilation, turn off the jit parameter in postgresql.conf.You do not need to install llvm if you turn off the jit parameter. Failure to install llvm without turning off the jit parameter may result in an error when executing SQL. For more information about runtime compilation, see "Just-in-Time Compilation (JIT)" in the PostgreSQL Documentation. Note: If JIT compilation using LLVM11 is performed on RHEL8, a verbose server message is logged one or more times on first query execution, for each associated database connection. <Message> ORC error: No callback manager available for powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu This error message results from a known deficiency in one of the features of the LLVM library for POWER, but this feature is not used by the server and the error does not otherwise affect LLVM operation. To prevent this message from being logged, JIT compilation may be disabled, by setting the value "off" to the configuration variable "jit". |

llvm | Install version 7.0.x of llvm to run SQL with runtime compilation (just-in-time compilation) and add the directory where the shared library libLLVM -*.so is located to the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH. FUJITSU Enterprise Postgres 14 uses runtime compilation by default. If you do not want to use runtime compilation, turn off the jit parameter in postgresql.conf. You do not need to install llvm if you turn off the jit parameter. Failure to install llvm without turning off the jit parameter may result in an error when executing SQL. For more information about runtime compilation, see "Just-in-Time Compilation (JIT)" in the PostgreSQL Documentation. |
