--master-retry-count=count

This option is deprecated; expect it to be removed in a future MySQL release. Use theSOURCE_RETRY_COUNT option of theCHANGE REPLICATION SOURCE TO statement, instead.

--max-relay-log-size=size

The size at which the server rotates relay log files automatically. If this value is nonzero, the relay log is rotated automatically when its size exceeds this value. If this value is zero (the default), the size at which relay log rotation occurs is determined by the value ofmax_binlog_size. For more information, seeSection 19.2.4.1, “The Relay Log”.

--relay-log-purge={0|1}

Disable or enable automatic purging of relay logs as soon as they are no longer needed. The default value is 1 (enabled). This is a global variable that can be changed dynamically withSET GLOBAL relay_log_purge =N. Disabling purging of relay logs when enabling the--relay-log-recovery option risks data consistency and is therefore not crash-safe.

--relay-log-space-limit=size

This option places an upper limit on the total size in bytes of all relay logs on the replica. A value of 0 means“no limit”. This is useful for a replica server host that has limited disk space. When the limit is reached, the I/O (receiver) thread stops reading binary log events from the source server until the SQL thread has caught up and deleted some unused relay logs. Note that this limit is not absolute: There are cases where the SQL (applier) thread needs more events before it can delete relay logs. In that case, the receiver thread exceeds the limit until it becomes possible for the applier thread to delete some relay logs because not doing so would cause a deadlock. You should not set--relay-log-space-limit to less than twice the value of--max-relay-log-size (or--max-binlog-size if--max-relay-log-size is 0). In that case, there is a chance that the receiver thread waits for free space because--relay-log-space-limit is exceeded, but the applier thread has no relay log to purge and is unable to satisfy the receiver thread. This forces the receiver thread to ignore--relay-log-space-limit temporarily.

--replicate-do-db=db_name

Creates a replication filter using the name of a database. Such filters can also be created usingCHANGE REPLICATION FILTER REPLICATE_DO_DB.

This option supports channel specific replication filters, enabling multi-source replicas to use specific filters for different sources. To configure a channel specific replication filter on a channel namedchannel_1 use--replicate-do-db:channel_1:db_name. In this case, the first colon is interpreted as a separator and subsequent colons are literal colons. SeeSection 19.2.5.4, “Replication Channel Based Filters” for more information.

The precise effect of this replication filter depends on whether statement-based or row-based replication is in use.

Statement-based replication.  Tell the replication SQL thread to restrict replication to statements where the default database (that is, the one selected byUSE) isdb_name. To specify more than one database, use this option multiple times, once for each database; however, doing so doesnot replicate cross-database statements such asUPDATEsome_db.some_table SET foo='bar' while a different database (or no database) is selected.

An example of what does not work as you might expect when using statement-based replication: If the replica is started with--replicate-do-db=sales and you issue the following statements on the source, theUPDATE statement isnot replicated:

USE prices;UPDATE sales.january SET amount=amount+1000;

The main reason for this“check just the default database” behavior is that it is difficult from the statement alone to know whether it should be replicated (for example, if you are using multiple-tableDELETE statements or multiple-tableUPDATE statements that act across multiple databases). It is also faster to check only the default database rather than all databases if there is no need.

Row-based replication.  Tells the replication SQL thread to restrict replication to databasedb_name. Only tables belonging todb_name are changed; the current database has no effect on this. Suppose that the replica is started with--replicate-do-db=sales and row-based replication is in effect, and then the following statements are run on the source:

USE prices;UPDATE sales.february SET amount=amount+100;

Thefebruary table in thesales database on the replica is changed in accordance with theUPDATE statement; this occurs whether or not theUSE statement was issued. However, issuing the following statements on the source has no effect on the replica when using row-based replication and--replicate-do-db=sales:

USE prices;UPDATE prices.march SET amount=amount-25;

Even if the statementUSE prices were changed toUSE sales, theUPDATE statement's effects would still not be replicated.

Another important difference in how--replicate-do-db is handled in statement-based replication as opposed to row-based replication occurs with regard to statements that refer to multiple databases. Suppose that the replica is started with--replicate-do-db=db1, and the following statements are executed on the source:

USE db1;UPDATE db1.table1, db2.table2 SET db1.table1.col1 = 10, db2.table2.col2 = 20;

If you are using statement-based replication, then both tables are updated on the replica. However, when using row-based replication, onlytable1 is affected on the replica; sincetable2 is in a different database,table2 on the replica is not changed by theUPDATE. Now suppose that, instead of theUSE db1 statement, aUSE db4 statement had been used:

USE db4;UPDATE db1.table1, db2.table2 SET db1.table1.col1 = 10, db2.table2.col2 = 20;

In this case, theUPDATE statement would have no effect on the replica when using statement-based replication. However, if you are using row-based replication, theUPDATE would changetable1 on the replica, but nottable2—in other words, only tables in the database named by--replicate-do-db are changed, and the choice of default database has no effect on this behavior.

If you need cross-database updates to work, use--replicate-wild-do-table=db_name.% instead. SeeSection 19.2.5, “How Servers Evaluate Replication Filtering Rules”.

--replicate-ignore-db=db_name

Creates a replication filter using the name of a database. Such filters can also be created usingCHANGE REPLICATION FILTER REPLICATE_IGNORE_DB.

This option supports channel specific replication filters, enabling multi-source replicas to use specific filters for different sources. To configure a channel specific replication filter on a channel namedchannel_1 use--replicate-ignore-db:channel_1:db_name. In this case, the first colon is interpreted as a separator and subsequent colons are literal colons. SeeSection 19.2.5.4, “Replication Channel Based Filters” for more information.

To specify more than one database to ignore, use this option multiple times, once for each database. Because database names can contain commas, if you supply a comma-separated list, it is treated as the name of a single database.

As with--replicate-do-db, the precise effect of this filtering depends on whether statement-based or row-based replication is in use, and are described in the next several paragraphs.

Statement-based replication.  Tells the replication SQL thread not to replicate any statement where the default database (that is, the one selected byUSE) isdb_name.

Row-based replication.  Tells the replication SQL thread not to update any tables in the databasedb_name. The default database has no effect.

When using statement-based replication, the following example does not work as you might expect. Suppose that the replica is started with--replicate-ignore-db=sales and you issue the following statements on the source:

USE prices;UPDATE sales.january SET amount=amount+1000;

TheUPDATE statementis replicated in such a case because--replicate-ignore-db applies only to the default database (determined by theUSE statement). Because thesales database was specified explicitly in the statement, the statement has not been filtered. However, when using row-based replication, theUPDATE statement's effects arenot propagated to the replica, and the replica's copy of thesales.january table is unchanged; in this instance,--replicate-ignore-db=sales causesall changes made to tables in the source's copy of thesales database to be ignored by the replica.

You should not use this option if you are using cross-database updates and you do not want these updates to be replicated. SeeSection 19.2.5, “How Servers Evaluate Replication Filtering Rules”.

If you need cross-database updates to work, use--replicate-wild-ignore-table=db_name.% instead. SeeSection 19.2.5, “How Servers Evaluate Replication Filtering Rules”.

--replicate-do-table=db_name.tbl_name

Creates a replication filter by telling the replication SQL thread to restrict replication to a given table. To specify more than one table, use this option multiple times, once for each table. This works for both cross-database updates and default database updates, in contrast to--replicate-do-db. SeeSection 19.2.5, “How Servers Evaluate Replication Filtering Rules”. You can also create such a filter by issuing aCHANGE REPLICATION FILTER REPLICATE_DO_TABLE statement.

This option supports channel specific replication filters, enabling multi-source replicas to use specific filters for different sources. To configure a channel specific replication filter on a channel namedchannel_1 use--replicate-do-table:channel_1:db_name.tbl_name. In this case, the first colon is interpreted as a separator and subsequent colons are literal colons. SeeSection 19.2.5.4, “Replication Channel Based Filters” for more information.

This option affects only statements that apply to tables. It does not affect statements that apply only to other database objects, such as stored routines. To filter statements operating on stored routines, use one or more of the--replicate-*-db options.

--replicate-ignore-table=db_name.tbl_name

Creates a replication filter by telling the replication SQL thread not to replicate any statement that updates the specified table, even if any other tables might be updated by the same statement. To specify more than one table to ignore, use this option multiple times, once for each table. This works for cross-database updates, in contrast to--replicate-ignore-db. SeeSection 19.2.5, “How Servers Evaluate Replication Filtering Rules”. You can also create such a filter by issuing aCHANGE REPLICATION FILTER REPLICATE_IGNORE_TABLE statement.

This option supports channel specific replication filters, enabling multi-source replicas to use specific filters for different sources. To configure a channel specific replication filter on a channel namedchannel_1 use--replicate-ignore-table:channel_1:db_name.tbl_name. In this case, the first colon is interpreted as a separator and subsequent colons are literal colons. SeeSection 19.2.5.4, “Replication Channel Based Filters” for more information.

This option affects only statements that apply to tables. It does not affect statements that apply only to other database objects, such as stored routines. To filter statements operating on stored routines, use one or more of the--replicate-*-db options.

--replicate-rewrite-db=from_name->to_name

Tells the replica to create a replication filter that translates the specified database toto_name if it wasfrom_name on the source. Only statements involving tables are affected, not statements such asCREATE DATABASE,DROP DATABASE, andALTER DATABASE.

To specify multiple rewrites, use this option multiple times. The server uses the first one with afrom_name value that matches. The database name translation is donebefore the--replicate-* rules are tested. You can also create such a filter by issuing aCHANGE REPLICATION FILTER REPLICATE_REWRITE_DB statement.

If you use the--replicate-rewrite-db option on the command line and the> character is special to your command interpreter, quote the option value. For example:

$> mysqld --replicate-rewrite-db="olddb->newdb"

The effect of the--replicate-rewrite-db option differs depending on whether statement-based or row-based binary logging format is used for the query. With statement-based format, DML statements are translated based on the current database, as specified by theUSE statement. With row-based format, DML statements are translated based on the database where the modified table exists. DDL statements are always filtered based on the current database, as specified by theUSE statement, regardless of the binary logging format.

To ensure that rewriting produces the expected results, particularly in combination with other replication filtering options, follow these recommendations when you use the--replicate-rewrite-db option:

If these recommendations are followed, it is safe to use the--replicate-rewrite-db option in combination with table-level replication filtering options such as--replicate-do-table.

This option supports channel specific replication filters, enabling multi-source replicas to use specific filters for different sources. Specify the channel name followed by a colon, followed by the filter specification. The first colon is interpreted as a separator, and any subsequent colons are interpreted as literal colons. For example, to configure a channel specific replication filter on a channel namedchannel_1, use:

$> mysqld --replicate-rewrite-db=channel_1:db_name1->db_name2

If you use a colon but do not specify a channel name, the option configures the replication filter for the default replication channel. SeeSection 19.2.5.4, “Replication Channel Based Filters” for more information.

--replicate-same-server-id

This option is for use on replicas. The default is 0 (FALSE). With this option set to 1 (TRUE), the replica does not skip events that have its own server ID. This setting is normally useful only in rare configurations.

When binary logging is enabled on a replica, the combination of the--replicate-same-server-id and--log-replica-updates options on the replica can cause infinite loops in replication if the server is part of a circular replication topology. (In MySQL 9.4, binary logging is enabled by default, and replica update logging is the default when binary logging is enabled.) However, the use of global transaction identifiers (GTIDs) prevents this situation by skipping the execution of transactions that have already been applied. Ifgtid_mode=ON is set on the replica, you can start the server with this combination of options, but you cannot change to any other GTID mode while the server is running. If any other GTID mode is set, the server does not start with this combination of options.

By default, the replication I/O (receiver) thread does not write binary log events to the relay log if they have the replica's server ID (this optimization helps save disk usage). If you want to use--replicate-same-server-id, be sure to start the replica with this option before you make the replica read its own events that you want the replication SQL (applier) thread to execute.

--replicate-wild-do-table=db_name.tbl_name

Creates a replication filter by telling the replication SQL (applier) thread to restrict replication to statements where any of the updated tables match the specified database and table name patterns. Patterns can contain the% and_ wildcard characters, which have the same meaning as for theLIKE pattern-matching operator. To specify more than one table, use this option multiple times, once for each table. This works for cross-database updates. SeeSection 19.2.5, “How Servers Evaluate Replication Filtering Rules”. You can also create such a filter by issuing aCHANGE REPLICATION FILTER REPLICATE_WILD_DO_TABLE statement.

This option supports channel specific replication filters, enabling multi-source replicas to use specific filters for different sources. To configure a channel specific replication filter on a channel namedchannel_1 use--replicate-wild-do-table:channel_1:db_name.tbl_name. In this case, the first colon is interpreted as a separator and subsequent colons are literal colons. SeeSection 19.2.5.4, “Replication Channel Based Filters” for more information.

The replication filter specified by the--replicate-wild-do-table option applies to tables, views, and triggers. It does not apply to stored procedures and functions, or events. To filter statements operating on the latter objects, use one or more of the--replicate-*-db options.

As an example,--replicate-wild-do-table=foo%.bar% replicates only updates that use a table where the database name starts withfoo and the table name starts withbar.

If the table name pattern is%, it matches any table name and the option also applies to database-level statements (CREATE DATABASE,DROP DATABASE, andALTER DATABASE). For example, if you use--replicate-wild-do-table=foo%.%, database-level statements are replicated if the database name matches the patternfoo%.

To include literal wildcard characters in the database or table name patterns, escape them with a backslash. For example, to replicate all tables of a database that is namedmy_own%db, but not replicate tables from themy1ownAABCdb database, you should escape the_ and% characters like this:--replicate-wild-do-table=my\_own\%db. If you use the option on the command line, you might need to double the backslashes or quote the option value, depending on your command interpreter. For example, with thebash shell, you would need to type--replicate-wild-do-table=my\\_own\\%db.

--replicate-wild-ignore-table=db_name.tbl_name

Creates a replication filter which keeps the replication SQL thread from replicating a statement in which any table matches the given wildcard pattern. To specify more than one table to ignore, use this option multiple times, once for each table. This works for cross-database updates. SeeSection 19.2.5, “How Servers Evaluate Replication Filtering Rules”. You can also create such a filter by issuing aCHANGE REPLICATION FILTER REPLICATE_WILD_IGNORE_TABLE statement.

This option supports channel specific replication filters, enabling multi-source replicas to use specific filters for different sources. To configure a channel specific replication filter on a channel namedchannel_1 use--replicate-wild-ignore:channel_1:db_name.tbl_name. In this case, the first colon is interpreted as a separator and subsequent colons are literal colons. SeeSection 19.2.5.4, “Replication Channel Based Filters” for more information.

As an example,--replicate-wild-ignore-table=foo%.bar% does not replicate updates that use a table where the database name starts withfoo and the table name starts withbar. For information about how matching works, see the description of the--replicate-wild-do-table option. The rules for including literal wildcard characters in the option value are the same as for--replicate-wild-ignore-table as well.

If you need to filter outGRANT statements or other administrative statements, a possible workaround is to use the--replicate-ignore-db filter. This filter operates on the default database that is currently in effect, as determined by theUSE statement. You can therefore create a filter to ignore statements for a database that is not replicated, then issue theUSE statement to switch the default database to that one immediately before issuing any administrative statements that you want to ignore. In the administrative statement, name the actual database where the statement is applied.

For example, if--replicate-ignore-db=nonreplicated is configured on the replica server, the following sequence of statements causes theGRANT statement to be ignored, because the default databasenonreplicated is in effect:

USE nonreplicated;GRANT SELECT, INSERT ON replicated.t1 TO 'someuser'@'somehost';

--skip-replica-start

--skip-replica-start tells the replica server not to start the replication I/O (receiver) and SQL (applier) threads when the server starts. To start the threads later, use aSTART REPLICA statement.

You can use theskip_replica_start system variable in place of the command line option to allow access to this feature using MySQL Server’s privilege structure, so that database administrators do not need any privileged access to the operating system.

--skip-slave-start

Deprecated alias for--skip-replica-start.

--slave-skip-errors=[err_code1,err_code2,...|all|ddl_exist_errors]

Deprecated synonym for--replica-skip-errors.

--slave-sql-verify-checksum={0|1}

Deprecated synonym for--replica-sql-verify-checksum

init_replica

init_replica is similar toinit_connect, but is a string to be executed by a replica server each time the replication SQL thread starts. The format of the string is the same as for theinit_connect variable. The setting of this variable takes effect for subsequentSTART REPLICA statements.

init_slave

Deprecated alias forinit_replica.

log_slow_replica_statements

When the slow query log is enabled,log_slow_replica_statements enables logging for queries that have taken more thanlong_query_time seconds to execute on the replica. Note that if row-based replication is in use (binlog_format=ROW),log_slow_replica_statements has no effect. Queries are only added to the replica's slow query log when they are logged in statement format in the binary log, that is, whenbinlog_format=STATEMENT is set, or whenbinlog_format=MIXED is set and the statement is logged in statement format. Slow queries that are logged in row format whenbinlog_format=MIXED is set, or that are logged whenbinlog_format=ROW is set, are not added to the replica's slow query log, even iflog_slow_replica_statements is enabled.

Settinglog_slow_replica_statements has no immediate effect. The state of the variable applies on all subsequentSTART REPLICA statements. Also note that the global setting forlong_query_time applies for the lifetime of the SQL thread. If you change that setting, you must stop and restart the replication SQL thread to implement the change there (for example, by issuingSTOP REPLICA andSTART REPLICA statements with theSQL_THREAD option).

log_slow_slave_statements

Deprecated alias forlog_slow_replica_statements.

max_relay_log_size

If a write by a replica to its relay log causes the current log file size to exceed the value of this variable, the replica rotates the relay logs (closes the current file and opens the next one). Ifmax_relay_log_size is 0, the server usesmax_binlog_size for both the binary log and the relay log. Ifmax_relay_log_size is greater than 0, it constrains the size of the relay log, which enables you to have different sizes for the two logs. You must setmax_relay_log_size to between 4096 bytes and 1GB (inclusive), or to 0. The default value is 0. SeeSection 19.2.3, “Replication Threads”.

relay_log

The base name for relay log files. For the default replication channel, the default base name for relay logs ishost_name-relay-bin. For non-default replication channels, the default base name for relay logs ishost_name-relay-bin-channel, wherechannel is the name of the replication channel recorded in this relay log.

The server writes the file in the data directory unless the base name is given with a leading absolute path name to specify a different directory. The server creates relay log files in sequence by adding a numeric suffix to the base name.

The relay log and relay log index on a replication server cannot be given the same names as the binary log and binary log index, whose names are specified by the--log-bin and--log-bin-index options. The server issues an error message and does not start if the binary log and relay log file base names would be the same.

Due to the manner in which MySQL parses server options, if you specify this variable at server startup, you must supply a value;the default base name is used only if the option is not actually specified. If you specify therelay_log system variable at server startup without specifying a value, unexpected behavior is likely to result; this behavior depends on the other options used, the order in which they are specified, and whether they are specified on the command line or in an option file. For more information about how MySQL handles server options, seeSection 6.2.2, “Specifying Program Options”.

If you specify this variable, the value specified is also used as the base name for the relay log index file. You can override this behavior by specifying a different relay log index file base name using therelay_log_index system variable.

When the server reads an entry from the index file, it checks whether the entry contains a relative path. If it does, the relative part of the path is replaced with the absolute path set using therelay_log system variable. An absolute path remains unchanged; in such a case, the index must be edited manually to enable the new path or paths to be used.

You may find therelay_log system variable useful in performing the following tasks:

You can obtain the relay log file name (and path) from therelay_log_basename system variable.

relay_log_basename

Holds the base name and complete path to the relay log file. The maximum variable length is 256. This variable is set by the server and is read only.

relay_log_index

The name for the relay log index file. The maximum variable length is 256. If you do not specify this variable, but therelay_log system variable is specified, its value is used as the default base name for the relay log index file. Ifrelay_log is also not specified, then for the default replication channel, the default name ishost_name-relay-bin.index, using the name of the host machine. For non-default replication channels, the default name ishost_name-relay-bin-channel.index, wherechannel is the name of the replication channel recorded in this relay log index.

The default location for relay log files is the data directory, or any other location that was specified using therelay_log system variable. You can use therelay_log_index system variable to specify an alternative location, by adding a leading absolute path name to the base name to specify a different directory.

The relay log and relay log index on a replication server cannot be given the same names as the binary log and binary log index, whose names are specified by the--log-bin and--log-bin-index options. The server issues an error message and does not start if the binary log and relay log file base names would be the same.

Due to the manner in which MySQL parses server options, if you specify this variable at server startup, you must supply a value;the default base name is used only if the option is not actually specified. If you specify therelay_log_index system variable at server startup without specifying a value, unexpected behavior is likely to result; this behavior depends on the other options used, the order in which they are specified, and whether they are specified on the command line or in an option file. For more information about how MySQL handles server options, seeSection 6.2.2, “Specifying Program Options”.

relay_log_purge

Disables or enables automatic purging of relay log files as soon as they are not needed any more. The default value is 1 (ON).

relay_log_recovery

If enabled, this variable enables automatic relay log recovery immediately following server startup. The recovery process creates a new relay log file, initializes the SQL (applier) thread position to this new relay log, and initializes the I/O (receiver) thread to the applier thread position. Reading of the relay log from the source then continues. IfSOURCE_AUTO_POSITION=1 was set for the replication channel using aCHANGE REPLICATION SOURCE TO statement, the source position used to start replication might be the one received in the connection and not the ones assigned in this process.

Whenrelay_log_recovery is disabled, the server sanitizes the relay log on startup, by performing the following actions:

This global variable is read-only at runtime. Its value can be set with the--relay-log-recovery option at replica server startup, which should be used following an unexpected halt of a replica to ensure that no possibly corrupted relay logs are processed, and must be used in order to guarantee a crash-safe replica. The default value is 0 (disabled). For information on the combination of settings on a replica that is most resilient to unexpected halts, seeSection 19.4.2, “Handling an Unexpected Halt of a Replica”.

Setting--relay-log-recovery at startup automatically handles any inconsistencies and gaps in the sequence of transactions that have been executed from the relay log. These gaps can occur when file position based replication is in use. (For more details, seeSection 19.5.1.35, “Replication and Transaction Inconsistencies”.) The relay log recovery process deals with gaps using the same method as theSTART REPLICA UNTIL SQL_AFTER_MTS_GAPS statement would. When the replica reaches a consistent gap-free state, the relay log recovery process goes on to fetch further transactions from the source beginning at the SQL (applier) thread position. When GTID-based replication is in use, a multithreaded replica checks first whetherSOURCE_AUTO_POSITION is set toON, and if it is, omits the step of calculating the transactions that should be skipped or not skipped, so that the old relay logs are not required for the recovery process.

relay_log_space_limit

The maximum amount of space to use for all relay logs.

replica_checkpoint_group

replica_checkpoint_group sets the maximum number of transactions that can be processed by a multithreaded replica before a checkpoint operation is called to update its status as shown bySHOW REPLICA STATUS. Setting this variable has no effect on replicas for which multithreading is not enabled. Setting this variable has no immediate effect. The state of the variable applies to all subsequentSTART REPLICA statements.

This variable works in combination with thereplica_checkpoint_period system variable in such a way that, when either limit is exceeded, the checkpoint is executed and the counters tracking both the number of transactions and the time elapsed since the last checkpoint are reset.

The minimum allowed value for this variable is 32, unless the server was built using-DWITH_DEBUG, in which case the minimum value is 1. The effective value is always a multiple of 8; you can set it to a value that is not such a multiple, but the server rounds it down to the next lower multiple of 8 before storing the value. (Exception: No such rounding is performed by the debug server.) Regardless of how the server was built, the default value is 512, and the maximum allowed value is 524280.

replica_checkpoint_period

replica_checkpoint_period sets the maximum time (in milliseconds) that is allowed to pass before a checkpoint operation is called to update the status of a multithreaded replica as shown bySHOW REPLICA STATUS. Setting this variable has no effect on replicas for which multithreading is not enabled. Setting this variable takes effect for all replication channels immediately, including running channels.

This variable works in combination with thereplica_checkpoint_group system variable in such a way that, when either limit is exceeded, the checkpoint is executed and the counters tracking both the number of transactions and the time elapsed since the last checkpoint are reset.

The minimum allowed value for this variable is 1, unless the server was built using-DWITH_DEBUG, in which case the minimum value is 0. Regardless of how the server was built, the default value is 300 milliseconds, and the maximum possible value is 4294967295 milliseconds (approximately 49.7 days).

replica_compressed_protocol

replica_compressed_protocol specifies whether to use compression of the source/replica connection protocol if both source and replica support it. If this variable is disabled (the default), connections are uncompressed. Changes to this variable take effect on subsequent connection attempts; this includes after issuing aSTART REPLICA statement, as well as reconnections made by a running replication I/O (receiver) thread.

Binary log transaction compression, enabled by thebinlog_transaction_compression system variable, can also be used to save bandwidth. If you use binary log transaction compression in combination with protocol compression, protocol compression has less opportunity to act on the data, but can still compress headers and those events and transaction payloads that are uncompressed. For more information on binary log transaction compression, seeSection 7.4.4.5, “Binary Log Transaction Compression”.

Ifreplica_compressed_protocol is enabled, it takes precedence over anySOURCE_COMPRESSION_ALGORITHMS option specified for theCHANGE REPLICATION SOURCE TO statement. In this case, connections to the source usezlib compression if both the source and replica support that algorithm. Ifreplica_compressed_protocol is disabled, the value ofSOURCE_COMPRESSION_ALGORITHMS applies. For more information, seeSection 6.2.8, “Connection Compression Control”.

replica_exec_mode

replica_exec_mode controls how a replication thread resolves conflicts and errors during replication.IDEMPOTENT mode causes suppression of duplicate-key and no-key-found errors;STRICT means no such suppression takes place.

IDEMPOTENT mode is intended for use in multi-source replication, circular replication, and some other special replication scenarios for NDB Cluster Replication. (SeeSection 25.7.10, “NDB Cluster Replication: Bidirectional and Circular Replication”, andSection 25.7.12, “NDB Cluster Replication Conflict Resolution”, for more information.) NDB Cluster ignores any value explicitly set forreplica_exec_mode, and always treats it asIDEMPOTENT.

In MySQL Server 9.4,STRICT mode is the default value.

Setting this variable takes immediate effect for all replication channels, including running channels.

For storage engines other thanNDB,IDEMPOTENT mode should be used only when you are absolutely sure that duplicate-key errors and key-not-found errors can safely be ignored. It is meant to be used in fail-over scenarios for NDB Cluster where multi-source replication or circular replication is employed, and is not recommended for use in other cases.

replica_load_tmpdir

replica_load_tmpdir specifies the name of the directory where the replica creates temporary files. Setting this variable takes effect for all replication channels immediately, including running channels. The variable value is by default equal to the value of thetmpdir system variable, or the default that applies when that system variable is not specified.

When the replication SQL thread replicates aLOAD DATA statement, it extracts the file to be loaded from the relay log into temporary files, and then loads these into the table. If the file loaded on the source is huge, the temporary files on the replica are huge, too. Therefore, it might be advisable to use this option to tell the replica to put temporary files in a directory located in some file system that has a lot of available space. In that case, the relay logs are huge as well, so you might also want to set therelay_log system variable to place the relay logs in that file system.

The directory specified by this option should be located in a disk-based file system (not a memory-based file system) so that the temporary files used to replicateLOAD DATA statements can survive machine restarts. The directory also should not be one that is cleared by the operating system during the system startup process. However, replication can now continue after a restart if the temporary files have been removed.

replica_max_allowed_packet

replica_max_allowed_packet sets the maximum packet size in bytes that the replication SQL (applier)and I/O (receiver) threads can handle. Setting this variable takes effect for all replication channels immediately, including running channels. It is possible for a source to write binary log events longer than itsmax_allowed_packet setting once the event header is added. The setting forreplica_max_allowed_packet must be larger than themax_allowed_packet setting on the source, so that large updates using row-based replication do not cause replication to fail.

This global variable always has a value that is a positive integer multiple of 1024; if you set it to some value that is not, the value is rounded down to the next highest multiple of 1024 for it is stored or used; settingreplica_max_allowed_packet to 0 causes 1024 to be used. (A truncation warning is issued in all such cases.) The default and maximum value is 1073741824 (1 GB); the minimum is 1024.

replica_net_timeout

replica_net_timeout specifies the number of seconds to wait for more data or a heartbeat signal from the source before the replica considers the connection broken, aborts the read, and tries to reconnect. Setting this variable has no immediate effect. The state of the variable applies on all subsequentSTART REPLICA commands.

The default value is 60 seconds (one minute). The first retry occurs immediately after the timeout. The interval between retries is controlled by theSOURCE_CONNECT_RETRY option for theCHANGE REPLICATION SOURCE TO statement, and the number of reconnection attempts is limited by theSOURCE_RETRY_COUNT option.

The heartbeat interval, which stops the connection timeout occurring in the absence of data if the connection is still good, is controlled by theSOURCE_HEARTBEAT_PERIOD option for theCHANGE REPLICATION SOURCE TO statement. The heartbeat interval defaults to half the value ofreplica_net_timeout, and it is recorded in the replica's connection metadata repository and shown in thereplication_connection_configuration Performance Schema table. Note that a change to the value or default setting ofreplica_net_timeout does not automatically change the heartbeat interval, whether that has been set explicitly or is using a previously calculated default. If the connection timeout is changed, you must also issueCHANGE REPLICATION SOURCE TO to adjust the heartbeat interval to an appropriate value so that it occurs before the connection timeout.

replica_parallel_type

replica_parallel_type specifies the policy used to decide which transactions are allowed to execute in parallel on the replica. The variable has no effect on replicas for which multithreading is not enabled. The possible values are:

Whenreplica_preserve_commit_order is enabled, you must useLOGICAL_CLOCK. Multithreading is enabled by default for replica servers (replica_parallel_workers=4 by default), andLOGICAL_CLOCK is the default. (replica_preserve_commit_order is also enabled by default.)

When the replication topology uses multiple levels of replicas,LOGICAL_CLOCK may achieve less parallelization for each level the replica is away from the source.

When binary log transaction compression is enabled using thebinlog_transaction_compression system variable, ifreplica_parallel_type is set toDATABASE, all the databases affected by the transaction are mapped before the transaction is scheduled. The use of binary log transaction compression with theDATABASE policy can reduce parallelism compared to uncompressed transactions, which are mapped and scheduled for each event.

replica_parallel_type is deprecated, as is support for parallelization of transactions using database partitioning. Expect support for these to be removed in a future release, and forLOGICAL_CLOCK to be used exclusively thereafter.

replica_parallel_workers

replica_parallel_workers enables multithreading on the replica and sets the number of applier threads for executing replication transactions in parallel. The replica uses the specified number of worker threads to execute transactions, plus a coordinator thread that reads transactions from the relay log and schedules them to workers. If you are using multiple replication channels, the value of this variable applies to the threads used by each channel.

The default value is 4, which means that replicas are multithreaded by default.

For a single worker, setreplica_parallel_workers to 1.

Whenreplica_preserve_commit_order isON (the default), transactions on a replica are externalized on the replica in the same order as they appear in the replica's relay log. The way in which transactions are distributed among applier threads is determined byreplica_parallel_type. These system variables also have appropriate defaults for multithreading.

To disable parallel execution, setreplica_parallel_workers to 1, in which case the replica uses one coordinator thread which reads transactions, and one worker thread which applies them, which means that transactions are applied sequentially. Whenreplica_parallel_workers is equal to 1, thereplica_parallel_type andreplica_preserve_commit_order system variables have no effect and are ignored. With one parallel worker, thereplica_preserve_commit_order system variable also has no effect.

Settingreplica_parallel_workers has no immediate effect but rather applies to all subsequentSTART REPLICA statements.

Multithreaded replicas are also supported by NDB Cluster 9.4. SeeSection 25.7.11, “NDB Cluster Replication Using the Multithreaded Applier”, for more information.

Increasing the number of workers improves the potential for parallelism. Typically, this improves performance up to a certain point, beyond which increasing the number of workers reduces performance due to concurrency effects such as lock contention. The ideal number depends on both hardware and workload; it can be difficult to predict and typically has to be found by testing. Tables without primary keys, which always harm performance, may have even greater negative performance impact on replicas havingreplica_parallel_workers > 1; so make sure that all tables have primary keys.

replica_pending_jobs_size_max

For multithreaded replicas, this variable sets the maximum amount of memory (in bytes) available to applier queues holding events not yet applied. Setting this variable has no effect on replicas for which multithreading is not enabled. Setting this variable has no immediate effect. The state of the variable applies on all subsequentSTART REPLICA commands.

The minimum possible value for this variable is 1024 bytes; the default is 128MB. The maximum possible value is 18446744073709551615 (16 exbibytes). Values that are not exact multiples of 1024 bytes are rounded down to the next lower multiple of 1024 bytes prior to being stored.

The value of this variable is a soft limit and can be set to match the normal workload. If an unusually large event exceeds this size, the transaction is held until all the worker threads have empty queues, and then processed. All subsequent transactions are held until the large transaction has been completed.

replica_preserve_commit_order

Settingreplica_preserve_commit_order=ON ensures that transactions are executed and committed on the replica in the same order as they appear in the replica's relay log. This prevents gaps in the sequence of transactions that have been executed from the replica's relay log, and preserves the same transaction history on the replica as on the source (with the limitations listed below). This variable has no effect on replicas for which multithreading is not enabled.

Multithreading is enabled by default in MySQL 9.4 for replica servers (replica_parallel_workers=4 by default), soreplica_preserve_commit_order=ON is the default, and the settingreplica_parallel_type=LOGICAL_CLOCK is also the default. In addition, the setting forreplica_preserve_commit_order is ignored ifreplica_parallel_workers is set to 1, because in that situation the order of transactions is preserved anyway.

Binary logging and replica update logging are not required on the replica to setreplica_preserve_commit_order=ON, and can be disabled if wanted. Settingreplica_preserve_commit_order=ON requires thatreplica_parallel_type is set toLOGICAL_CLOCK, the default in MySQL 9.4. Before changing the value ofreplica_preserve_commit_order orreplica_parallel_type, the replication applier thread (for all replication channels if you are using multiple replication channels) must be stopped.

Whenreplica_preserve_commit_order=OFF is set, the transactions that a multithreaded replica applies in parallel may commit out of order. Therefore, checking for the most recently executed transaction does not guarantee that all previous transactions from the source have been executed on the replica. There is a chance of gaps in the sequence of transactions that have been executed from the replica's relay log. This has implications for logging and recovery when using a multithreaded replica. SeeSection 19.5.1.35, “Replication and Transaction Inconsistencies” for more information.

Whenreplica_preserve_commit_order=ON is set, the executing worker thread waits until all previous transactions are committed before committing. While a given thread is waiting for other worker threads to commit their transactions, it reports its status asWaiting for preceding transaction to commit. With this mode, a multithreaded replica never enters a state that the source was not in. This supports the use of replication for read scale-out. SeeSection 19.4.5, “Using Replication for Scale-Out”.

replica_sql_verify_checksum

replica_sql_verify_checksum causes the replication SQL (applier) thread to verify data using the checksums read from the relay log. In the event of a mismatch, the replica stops with an error. Setting this variable takes effect for all replication channels immediately, including running channels.

replica_transaction_retries

replica_transaction_retries sets the maximum number of times for replication SQL threads on a single-threaded or multithreaded replica to automatically retry failed transactions before stopping. Setting this variable takes effect for all replication channels immediately, including running channels. The default value is 10. Setting the variable to 0 disables automatic retrying of transactions.

If a replication SQL thread fails to execute a transaction because of anInnoDB deadlock or because the transaction's execution time exceededInnoDB'sinnodb_lock_wait_timeout orNDB'sTransactionDeadlockDetectionTimeout orTransactionInactiveTimeout, it automatically retriesreplica_transaction_retries times before stopping with an error. Transactions with a non-temporary error are not retried.

The Performance Schema tablereplication_applier_status shows the number of retries that took place on each replication channel, in theCOUNT_TRANSACTIONS_RETRIES column. The Performance Schema tablereplication_applier_status_by_worker shows detailed information on transaction retries by individual applier threads on a single-threaded or multithreaded replica, and identifies the errors that caused the last transaction and the transaction currently in progress to be reattempted.

replica_type_conversions

replica_type_conversions controls the type conversion mode in effect on the replica when using row-based replication. Its value is a comma-delimited set of zero or more elements from the list:ALL_LOSSY,ALL_NON_LOSSY,ALL_SIGNED,ALL_UNSIGNED. Set this variable to an empty string to disallow type conversions between the source and the replica. Setting this variable takes effect for all replication channels immediately, including running channels.

For additional information on type conversion modes applicable to attribute promotion and demotion in row-based replication, seeRow-based replication: attribute promotion and demotion.

replication_optimize_for_static_plugin_config

Use shared locks, and avoid unnecessary lock acquisitions, to improve performance for semisynchronous replication. This setting andreplication_sender_observe_commit_only help as the number of replicas increases, because contention for locks can slow down performance. While this system variable is enabled, the semisynchronous replication plugin cannot be uninstalled, so you must disable the system variable before the uninstall can complete.

This system variable can be enabled before or after installing the semisynchronous replication plugin, and can be enabled while replication is running. Semisynchronous replication source servers can also get performance benefits from enabling this system variable, because they use the same locking mechanisms as the replicas.

replication_optimize_for_static_plugin_config can be enabled when Group Replication is in use on a server. In that scenario, it might benefit performance when there is contention for locks due to high workloads.

replication_sender_observe_commit_only

Limit callbacks to improve performance for semisynchronous replication. This setting andreplication_optimize_for_static_plugin_config help as the number of replicas increases, because contention for locks can slow down performance.

This system variable can be enabled before or after installing the semisynchronous replication plugin, and can be enabled while replication is running. Semisynchronous replication source servers can also get performance benefits from enabling this system variable, because they use the same locking mechanisms as the replicas.

report_host

The host name or IP address of the replica to be reported to the source during replica registration. This value appears in the output ofSHOW REPLICAS on the source server. Leave the value unset if you do not want the replica to register itself with the source.

report_password

The account password of the replica to be reported to the source during replica registration. This value appears in the output ofSHOW REPLICAS on the source server if the source was started with--show-replica-auth-info.

Although the name of this variable might imply otherwise,report_password is not connected to the MySQL user privilege system and so is not necessarily (or even likely to be) the same as the password for the MySQL replication user account.

report_port

The TCP/IP port number for connecting to the replica, to be reported to the source during replica registration. Set this only if the replica is listening on a nondefault port or if you have a special tunnel from the source or other clients to the replica. If you are not sure, do not use this option.

The default value for this option is the port number actually used by the replica. This is also the default value displayed bySHOW REPLICAS.

report_user

The account user name of the replica to be reported to the source during replica registration. This value appears in the output ofSHOW REPLICAS on the source server if the source was started with--show-replica-auth-info.

Although the name of this variable might imply otherwise,report_user is not connected to the MySQL user privilege system and so is not necessarily (or even likely to be) the same as the name of the MySQL replication user account.

rpl_read_size

Therpl_read_size system variable controls the minimum amount of data in bytes that is read from the binary log files and relay log files. If heavy disk I/O activity for these files is impeding performance for the database, increasing the read size might reduce file reads and I/O stalls when the file data is not currently cached by the operating system.

The minimum and default value forrpl_read_size is 8192 bytes. The value must be a multiple of 4KB. Note that a buffer the size of this value is allocated for each thread that reads from the binary log and relay log files, including dump threads on sources and coordinator threads on replicas. Setting a large value might therefore have an impact on memory consumption for servers.

rpl_semi_sync_replica_enabled

rpl_semi_sync_replica_enabled controls whether semisynchronous replication is enabled on the replica server. To enable or disable the plugin, set this variable toON orOFF (or 1 or 0), respectively. The default isOFF.

This variable is available only if the replica-side semisynchronous replication plugin is installed.

rpl_semi_sync_replica_trace_level

rpl_semi_sync_replica_trace_level controls the semisynchronous replication debug trace level on the replica server. Seerpl_semi_sync_master_trace_level for the permissible values.

This variable is available only if the replica-side semisynchronous replication plugin is installed.

rpl_semi_sync_slave_enabled

Deprecated synonym forrpl_semi_sync_replica_enabled.

rpl_semi_sync_slave_trace_level

Deprecated synonym forrpl_semi_sync_replica_trace_level.

rpl_stop_replica_timeout

You can control the length of time (in seconds) thatSTOP REPLICA waits before timing out by setting this variable. This can be used to avoid deadlocks betweenSTOP REPLICA and other SQL statements using different client connections to the replica.

The maximum and default value ofrpl_stop_replica_timeout is 31536000 seconds (1 year). The minimum is 2 seconds. Changes to this variable take effect for subsequentSTOP REPLICA statements.

This variable affects only the client that issues aSTOP REPLICA statement. When the timeout is reached, the issuing client returns an error message stating that the command execution is incomplete. The client then stops waiting for the replication I/O (receiver)and SQL (applier) threads to stop, but the replication threads continue to try to stop, and theSTOP REPLICA statement remains in effect. Once the replication threads are no longer busy, theSTOP REPLICA statement is executed and the replica stops.

rpl_stop_slave_timeout

Deprecated synonym forrpl_stop_replica_timeout.

skip_replica_start

skip_replica_start tells the replica server not to start the replication I/O (receiver) and SQL (applier) threads when the server starts. To start the threads later, use aSTART REPLICA statement.

This system variable is read-only and can be set by using thePERSIST_ONLY keyword or the@@persist_only qualifier with theSET statement. The--skip-replica-start command line option also sets this system variable. You can use the system variable in place of the command line option to allow access to this feature using MySQL Server’s privilege structure, so that database administrators do not need any privileged access to the operating system.

skip_slave_start

Deprecated synonym for--skip-replica-start.

slave_skip_errors

Deprecated alias forreplica_skip_errors.

replica_skip_errors

Normally, replication stops when an error occurs on the replica, which gives you the opportunity to resolve the inconsistency in the data manually. This option causes the replication SQL thread to continue replication when a statement returns any of the errors listed in the option value.

Do not use this option unless you fully understand why you are getting errors. If there are no bugs in your replication setup and client programs, and no bugs in MySQL itself, an error that stops replication should never occur. Indiscriminate use of this option results in replicas becoming hopelessly out of synchrony with the source, with you having no idea why this has occurred.

For error codes, you should use the numbers provided by the error message in your replica's error log and in the output ofSHOW REPLICA STATUS.Appendix B,Error Messages and Common Problems, lists server error codes.

The shorthand valueddl_exist_errors is equivalent to the error code list1007,1008,1050,1051,1054,1060,1061,1068,1091,1146.

You can also (but should not) use the very nonrecommended value ofall to cause the replica to ignore all error messages and keeps going regardless of what happens. Needless to say, if you useall, there are no guarantees regarding the integrity of your data. Please do not complain (or file bug reports) in this case if the replica's data is not anywhere close to what it is on the source.You have been warned.

This option does not work in the same way when replicating between NDB Clusters, due to the internalNDB mechanism for checking epoch sequence numbers; normally, as soon asNDB detects an epoch number that is missing or otherwise out of sequence, it immediately stops the replica applier thread. Beginning with NDB 8.0.28, you can override this behavior by also specifying--ndb-applier-allow-skip-epoch together with--replica-skip-errors; doing so causesNDB to ignore skipped epoch transactions.

Examples:

--replica-skip-errors=1062,1053--replica-skip-errors=all--replica-skip-errors=ddl_exist_errors

slave_sql_verify_checksum

Deprecated alias forreplica_sql_verify_checksum.

slave_transaction_retries

Deprecated alias forreplica_transaction_retries.

slave_type_conversions

Deprecated alias forreplica_type_conversions.

sql_replica_skip_counter

sql_replica_skip_counter specifies the number of events from the source that a replica should skip. Setting the option has no immediate effect. The variable applies to the nextSTART REPLICA statement; the nextSTART REPLICA statement also changes the value back to 0. When this variable is set to a nonzero value and there are multiple replication channels configured, theSTART REPLICA statement can only be used with theFOR CHANNELchannel clause.

This option is incompatible with GTID-based replication, and must not be set to a nonzero value whengtid_mode=ON is set. If you need to skip transactions when employing GTIDs, usegtid_executed from the source instead. If you have enabled GTID assignment on a replication channel using theASSIGN_GTIDS_TO_ANONYMOUS_TRANSACTIONS option of theCHANGE REPLICATION SOURCE TO statement,sql_replica_skip_counter is available. SeeSection 19.1.7.3, “Skipping Transactions”.

sql_slave_skip_counter

Deprecated alias forsql_replica_skip_counter.

sync_master_info

Deprecated alias forsync_source_info.

sync_relay_log

If the value of this variable is greater than 0, the MySQL server synchronizes its relay log to disk (usingfdatasync()) after everysync_relay_log events are written to the relay log. Setting this variable takes effect for all replication channels immediately, including running channels.

Settingsync_relay_log to 0 causes no synchronization to be done to disk; in this case, the server relies on the operating system to flush the relay log's contents from time to time as for any other file.

A value of 1 is the safest choice because in the event of an unexpected halt you lose at most one event from the relay log. However, it is also the slowest choice (unless the disk has a battery-backed cache, which makes synchronization very fast). For information on the combination of settings on a replica that is most resilient to unexpected halts, seeSection 19.4.2, “Handling an Unexpected Halt of a Replica”.

sync_relay_log_info

The number of transactions after which the replica updates the applier metadata repository. When the applier metadata repository is stored as anInnoDB table, which is the default, it is updated after every transaction and this system variable is ignored. If the applier metadata repository is stored as a file (deprecated), the replica synchronizes itsrelay-log.info file to disk (usingfdatasync()) after this many transactions.0 (zero) means that the file contents are flushed by the operating system only. Setting this variable takes effect for all replication channels immediately, including running channels.

Since storing applier metadata as a file is deprecated, this variable is also deprecated, and the server raises a warning whenever you set it or read its value. You should expectsync_relay_log_info to be removed in a future version of MySQL, and migrate applications now that may depend on it.

sync_source_info

sync_source_info specifies the number of events after which the replica updates the connection metadata repository. When the connection metadata repository is stored as anInnoDB table (the default, it is updated after this number of events. If the connection metadata repository is stored as a file (deprecated), the replica synchronizes itsmaster.info file to disk (usingfdatasync()) after this number of events. The default value is 10000, and a zero value means that the repository is never updated. Setting this variable takes effect for all replication channels immediately, including running channels.

terminology_use_previous

Incompatible changes were made in MySQL 8.0 to instrumentation names containing the termsmaster,slave, andmts (for“Multi-Threaded Slave”), which were changed respectively tosource,replica, andmta (for“Multi-Threaded Applier”). If these incompatible changes impact your applications, setterminology_use_previous toBEFORE_8_0_26 to make the MySQL server use the old versions of the names for the objects specified in the previous list. This enables monitoring tools that rely on the old names to continue working until they can be updated to use the new names.

MySQL 9.4 normally displaysREPLICA_SIDE_DISABLED rather thanSLAVESIDE_DISABLED in the output ofSHOW CREATE EVENT,SHOW EVENTS, and queries against the Information SchemaEVENTS table. You can causeSLAVESIDE_DISABLED to be shown instead by settingterminology_use_previous toBEFORE_8_0_26 orBEFORE_8_2_0.

Set theterminology_use_previous system variable with session scope to support individual users, or with global scope to be the default for all new sessions. When global scope is used, the slow query log contains the old versions of the names.

The affected instrumentation names are given in the following list. Theterminology_use_previous system variable only affects these items. It does not affect the new aliases for system variables, status variables, and command-line options that were also introduced in MySQL 8.0, and these can still be used when it is enabled.
