MySQL Utilities Webinar

MySQL Utilities logoOn Thursday, Dr Charles Bell and I will be presenting a webinar on MySQL Utilities; there will be a heavy focus on what you can acheive with them and how you should use them. As well as listening to the presentation, this is a great chance to get your questions answered by the experts (Israel Gomez from the engineering team will also be on-line to help with the questions). As always, the webinar is free but you should register in advance here. If the time isn’t convenient, register anyway and you’ll be sent a link to the replay when it’s available.

Abstract:

MySQL Utilities provide a collection of command-line utilities that are used for maintaining and administering MySQL databases, including:

  • Admin Utilities (Clone, Copy, Compare, Diff, Export, Import)
  • Replication Utilities (Setup, Configuration, Automated Slave Promotion)
  • General Utilities (Disk Usage, Redundant Indexes, Search Meta Data)

Andrew Morgan and Chuck Bell will guide you through these utilities, and many more, explaining what you can gain from these tools and how to use them (for example how a single command repeatedly checks your master server and in the event it fails, automatically promotes one of the slaves to be the new master). This is your opportunity to listen to the development lead describe what he and his team have created, and to get your questions answered by the experts.

MySQL Workbench 5.2 goes GA – partial support for MySQL Cluster

Configure MySQL Server nodes for MySQL Cluster

The new version of MySQL Workbench (5.2.25) has just gone GA – see the Workbench BLOG for details.

So what’s the relevance to MySQL Cluster? If you have a Cluster that uses MySQL Servers to provide SQL access then you can now use MySQL Workbench to manage those nodes:

  • Start & stop the mysqld processes
  • Configure the per-mysqld configuration data held in my.cnf or my.ini

The reason that I describe the support as ‘partial’ is that these MySQL Servers are treated as independent entities (no concept of them being part of a Cluster) and there is currently no way to use it to configure or manage the other Cluster processes (data and management nodes). Having said that, what is there provides a lot of value and Workbench is designed to be very extensible  and so hopefully there can be further MySQL Cluster support in the future.

View MySQL Cluster status variables

In addition to MySQL Cluster-specific configuration parameters, you can also access the Cluster-specific status variables (these are the ones starting with ndb).

While I’ve focussed on what’s unique to MySQL Cluster, you can of course use the other Workbench features with MySQL Cluster – for example:

  • Creating (or reverse-engineering) your data model
  • Define your schema
  • View/write data to your tables
  • Create your SQL queries
