Tracing Databend

Introduced or updated: v1.2.199

Databend utilizes Rust's tracing ecosystem, specifically tokio-tracing, for logging and profiling purposes.

Enable Tracing​

Tracing in Databend can be enabled with the environment variable LOG_LEVEL or the configuration file databend-query.toml.

Enabling with Environment Variable​

  1. Open a terminal or command prompt on your system, then navigate to the directory where the databend-query binary is located.
# Replace "/path/to/databend" with the actual path on your system
cd /path/to/databend
  1. Once you are in the correct directory, run the following command to set the log level for the execution of the databend-query command. Adjust the log level as needed for your specific requirements. In the provided example, DEBUG is used as an illustrative log level:
LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG ./databend-query
  1. Before tracing a query's execution, set max_threads to 1 in Databend. This ensures a simplified environment, making it easier to trace and analyze the query, aiding in effective troubleshooting and profiling.
SET max_threads=1;

Enabling with Configuration File​

  1. Add the following parameters to the [log] section in the configuration file databend-query.toml. For a detailed description of each parameter, see [log.tracing] Section.
databend-query.toml
...
[log.tracing]
capture_log_level = "TRACE"
on = "true"
otlp_endpoint = "http://127.0.0.1:4317"
...
  1. Before tracing a query's execution, set max_threads to 1 in Databend. This ensures a simplified environment, making it easier to trace and analyze the query, aiding in effective troubleshooting and profiling.
SET max_threads=1;

Tracing log​

note

Databend uses tokio-tracing to trace logs, where the default timezone is UTC and cannot be changed through the Databend timezone setting, therefore the time in the traced log will always be in UTC, and not reflect your local time.

Explore and Diagnose with tokio-console​

tokio-console is a diagnostics and debugging tool for asynchronous Rust programs. Make sure you have the tool installed before you use it.

Steps​

  1. Compile with specific RUSTFLAGS and features. We can use --bin to specify binary.

    RUSTFLAGS="--cfg tokio_unstable" cargo build --features tokio-console

  2. Run databend-meta or/and databend-query, remembering to set the log level of the program you need to diagnose to TRACE.

    LOG_LEVEL=TRACE databend-query # for query

    or

    databend-meta --single --log-level=TRACE # for meta

  3. Run tokio-console.

    tokio-console # default connection: http://127.0.0.1:6669

Tips​

Note that tokio-console only supports diagnostics for a single program at a time, so please ensure that only one program has a log level of TRACE. Otherwise, only the first program to occupy the port will be monitored.

If you need to diagnose multiple programs at the same time, consider using TOKIO_CONSOLE_BIND to assign different binds, for example:

TOKIO_CONSOLE_BIND=127.0.0.1:16667 LOG_LEVEL=TRACE target/debug/databend-query
tokio-console http://127.0.0.1:16667 # for query console, http://127.0.0.1:16667
databend-meta --single --log-level=TRACE
tokio-console # for meta console, http://127.0.0.1:6669

Examples​

databend-query

databend-meta
