CREATE RESOURCE GROUP

You can use the CREATE RESOURCE GROUP statement to create a resource group.

Note

This feature is not available on TiDB Serverless clusters.

The resource group name parameter (ResourceGroupName) must be globally unique.

TiDB supports the following DirectResourceGroupOption, where Request Unit (RU) is a unified abstraction unit in TiDB for CPU, IO, and other system resources.

Option	Description	Example
`RU_PER_SEC`	Rate of RU backfilling per second	`RU_PER_SEC = 500` indicates that this resource group is backfilled with 500 RUs per second
`PRIORITY`	The absolute priority of tasks to be processed on TiKV	`PRIORITY = HIGH` indicates that the priority is high. If not specified, the default value is `MEDIUM`.
`BURSTABLE`	If the `BURSTABLE` attribute is set, TiDB allows the corresponding resource group to use the available system resources when the quota is exceeded.
`QUERY_LIMIT`	When the query execution meets this condition, the query is identified as a runaway query and the corresponding action is executed.	`QUERY_LIMIT=(EXEC_ELAPSED=’60s’, ACTION=KILL, WATCH=EXACT DURATION=’10m’)` indicates that the query is identified as a runaway query when the execution time exceeds 60 seconds. The query is terminated. All SQL statements with the same SQL text will be terminated immediately in the coming 10 minutes. `QUERY_LIMIT=()` or `QUERY_LIMIT=NULL` means that runaway control is not enabled. See Runaway Queries.

Note

The CREATE RESOURCE GROUP statement can only be executed when the global variable tidb_enable_resource_control is set to ON. TiDB automatically creates a default resource group during cluster initialization. For this resource group, the default value of RU_PER_SEC is UNLIMITED (equivalent to the maximum value of the INT type, that is, 2147483647) and it is in BURSTABLE mode. All requests that are not bound to any resource group are automatically bound to this default resource group. When you create a new configuration for another resource group, it is recommended to modify the default resource group configuration as needed.
Currently, only the default resource group supports modifying the BACKGROUND configuration.

Examples

Create two resource groups rg1 and rg2.

DROP RESOURCE GROUP IF EXISTS rg1;

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.22 sec)

CREATE RESOURCE GROUP IF NOT EXISTS rg1
  RU_PER_SEC = 100
  PRIORITY = HIGH
  BURSTABLE;

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.08 sec)

CREATE RESOURCE GROUP IF NOT EXISTS rg2
  RU_PER_SEC = 200 QUERY_LIMIT=(EXEC_ELAPSED='100ms', ACTION=KILL);

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.08 sec)

SELECT * FROM information_schema.resource_groups WHERE NAME ='rg1' or NAME = 'rg2';

+------+------------+----------+-----------+---------------------------------+
| NAME | RU_PER_SEC | PRIORITY | BURSTABLE | QUERY_LIMIT                     |
+------+------------+----------+-----------+---------------------------------+
| rg1  | 100        | HIGH     | YES       | NULL                            |
| rg2  | 200        | MEDIUM   | NO        | EXEC_ELAPSED=100ms, ACTION=KILL |
+------+------------+----------+-----------+---------------------------------+
2 rows in set (1.30 sec)

MySQL compatibility

MySQL also supports CREATE RESOURCE GROUP. However, the acceptable parameters are different from that of TiDB so that they are not compatible.
