Hi, I installed postgres beta 2 using the RPM provided here for Cent OS.
Based on this article I was trying to set *max_parallel_degree*, but postgres complained that there was no such config variable. But I was able to set *max_parallel_workers_per_gather* and test things for parallel sequential scan I have a hunch that I have installed a previous beta version i.e beta 1, but *Select version()* reported that I was using 9.6beta2 only. What have I done wrong ? 1) The RPM file that I downloaded has 9.6 beta 1. Name is mentioned as pgdg-redhat96-9.6-1.noarch.rpm. 2) Should beta2 built only from source ? If the RPM is beta 1 why is the server version reporting as beta2 ? 3) Is there any kind of toggle to enable parallel aggregate/join feature ? -- Regards, Madusudanan.B.N <http://madusudanan.com>
