You need to make a few changes to the MySQL config. Depending on your OS, you need to edit my.cnf, for me this was located in /etc/my.cnf. Here's mine, I have 9 cameras running with two streams each. Also get hold of "mysqltuner.pl" and run that against your server to see what other configuration changes are suggested.

Code: Select all

innodb_log_file_size = 128M
innodb_buffer_pool_size = 1024M
innodb_buffer_pool_instances = 1
innodb_file_per_table = 1
innodb_doublewrite = OFF
innodb_additional_mem_pool_size = 80M
innodb_flush_log_at_timeout = 3
innodb_flush_log_at_timeout = 3
innodb_read_io_threads = 32
innodb_write_io_threads = 16
join_buffer_size = 128M
tmp_table_size = 128M
max_allowed_packet = 33554432
max_heap_table_size = 128M
max_connections = 250                    <<<<<<<<< This the setting you need to work on. ########
innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit = 0
innodb_log_buffer_size         = 16M
innodb_log_file_size           = 64M
innodb_lock_wait_timeout       = 120
query_cache_type               = 0
query_cache_size               = 0
query_cache_limit       = 2M

What exactly that numbers mean? I have DB:22/151 but I never knew what actually means...

The first number is the current connections you have in place to the database and the second number if the maximum available connections.

Thank you, Maximo1970. That's exactly what I need. I used Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, and the MySQL config file is /etc/mysql/my.cnf. I adjust the max_connections up to 512, and it work fine.

I have 9 cameras and saw my DB connections grow to 300. I've since increased to 512. Is there a rule of thumb to determine how many connections are needed?
