greenplum 5.7 + create table + insert into

os: centos 7.4
gp: gpdb-5.7.0

三台机器
node1 为master host
node2、node3为segment host

psql 登录 node1 master

$ psql -d peiybdb
peiybdb=# select current_database();
 current_database 
------------------
 peiybdb
(1 row)

create table tmp_t0(
c1 varchar(100),
c2 varchar(100),
c3 varchar(100)
);
NOTICE:  Table doesn't have 'DISTRIBUTED BY' clause -- Using column named 'c1' as the Greenplum Database data distribution key for this table.
HINT:  The 'DISTRIBUTED BY' clause determines the distribution of data. Make sure column(s) chosen are the optimal data distribution key to minimize skew.
CREATE TABLE

peiybdb=# d+ tmp_t0
                        Table "public.tmp_t0"
 Column |          Type          | Modifiers | Storage  | Description

 c2     | character varying(100) |           | extended | 
 c3     | character varying(100) |           | extended |

查看node1、node2、node3的文件目录大小

[gpadmin@node1 gpseg-1]$ pwd

[gpadmin@node1 gpseg-1]$ du -sh
109M    .

[gpadmin@node2 gpseg0]$ pwd

插入数据

peiybdb=# select gp_opt_version();
                gp_opt_version

insert into tmp_t0
(c1,c2,c3)
select generate_series(1, 1000000) as c1,
       md5(random()::text) as c2 ,
       md5(random()::text) as c3
;

node1 master上查询pg_stat_activity

peiybdb=# select * from pg_stat_activity;

再次查看node1、node2、node3的文件目录大小

[gpadmin@node1 gpseg-1]$ du -sh
109M    .

[gpadmin@node2 gpseg0]$ du -sh
224M    .

[gpadmin@node3 gpseg1]$ du -sh
224M    .

可以观察到 master 节点node1的数据文件大小并没有发生变化，segment的node2、node3的数据文件增长了不少。
主要就是由于 master 节点是用来存储定义，segment是用来存储数据的。

查看tmp_t0的定义

peiybdb=# 
peiybdb=# d
              List of relations
 Schema |  Name  | Type  |  Owner  | Storage 
--------+--------+-------+---------+---------
 public | tmp_t0 | table | gpadmin | heap
(1 row)

peiybdb=# d+ tmp_t0;
                        Table "public.tmp_t0"
 Column |          Type          | Modifiers | Storage  | Description 
--------+------------------------+-----------+----------+-------------
 c1     | character varying(100) |           | extended | 
 c2     | character varying(100) |           | extended | 
 c3     | character varying(100) |           | extended | 
Has OIDs: no
Distributed by: (c1)

Distributed by 这个就是tmp_t0表的分布列,表的分布列一定要合理，能够降数据比较均匀的分布到各个segment节点上。
检索数据时能够在多个节点并发处理数据。
