The MySQL server,mysqld, has many command options and system variables that can be set at startup to configure its operation. To determine the default command option and system variable values used by the server, execute this command:
$> mysqld --verbose --helpThe command produces a list of allmysqld options and configurable system variables. Its output includes the default option and variable values and looks something like this:
abort-slave-event-count 0allow-suspicious-udfs FALSEarchive ONauto-increment-increment 1auto-increment-offset 1autocommit TRUEautomatic-sp-privileges TRUEavoid-temporal-upgrade FALSEback-log 80basedir /home/jon/bin/mysql-8.0/...tmpdir /tmptransaction-alloc-block-size 8192transaction-isolation REPEATABLE-READtransaction-prealloc-size 4096transaction-read-only FALSEtransaction-write-set-extraction XXHASH64updatable-views-with-limit YESvalidate-user-plugins TRUEverbose TRUEwait-timeout 28800To see the current system variable values actually used by the server as it runs, connect to it and execute this statement:
mysql> SHOW VARIABLES;To see some statistical and status indicators for a running server, execute this statement:
mysql> SHOW STATUS;System variable and status information also is available using themysqladmin command:
$> mysqladmin variables$> mysqladmin extended-statusFor a full description of all command options, system variables, and status variables, see these sections:
More detailed monitoring information is available from the Performance Schema; seeChapter 29,MySQL Performance Schema. In addition, the MySQLsys schema is a set of objects that provides convenient access to data collected by the Performance Schema; seeChapter 30,MySQL sys Schema.
If you specify an option on the command line formysqld ormysqld_safe, it remains in effect only for that invocation of the server. To use the option every time the server runs, put it in an option file. SeeSection 6.2.2.2, “Using Option Files”.
