Percona XtraDB Cluster 8.0 (experimental release) : SST Improvements

Starting with the experimental release of Percona XtraDB Cluster 8.0, we have made changes to the SST process to make the process more robust and easier to use.

  • mysqldump and rsync are no longer supported SST methods.

    Support for mysqldump was deprecated starting with PXC 5.7 and has now been completely removed.

    MySQL 8.0 introduced a new Redo Log format that limited the use of rsync while upgrading from PXC 5.7 to 8.0. In addition, the new Galera-4 also introduced changes that further limits the use of rsync.

    The only supported SST method is xtrabackup-v2.

  • A separate Percona XtraBackup installation is no longer required.

Percona XtraDB Cluster 8.0 New Feature: wsrep_sst_auth Removal

The problem

In PXC 5.6 and 5.7, when using xtrabackup-v2 as the SST method, the DBA must create a user with the appropriate privileges for use by Percona XtraBackup (PXB). The username and password of this backup user are specified in the wsrep_sst_auth variable.

This is a problem because this username and password was being stored in plaintext and required that the configuration file be secured.

The PXC 8.0 solution

(This feature is still under development and may change before PXC 8.0 GA)

Because the wsrep_sst_auth is only needed on the donor side to take a backup, PXC 8.0 uses an internal user (created specifically for use by PXC) with a randomly generated password. Since this user is only needed on the donor, the plaintext password is not needed on the joiner …

Experimental Binary of Percona XtraDB Cluster 8.0

Percona is happy to announce the first experimental binary of Percona XtraDB Cluster 8.0 on October 1, 2019. This is a major step for tuning Percona XtraDB Cluster to be more cloud- and user-friendly. This release combines the updated and feature-rich Galera 4, with substantial improvements made by our development team.

Improvements and New Features

Galera 4, included in Percona XtraDB Cluster 8.0, has many new features. Here is a list of the most essential improvements:

  • Streaming replication supports large transactions
  • The synchronization functions allow action coordination (wsrep_last_seen_gtid, wsrep_last_written_gtid, wsrep_sync_wait_upto_gtid)
  • More granular and improved error logging. wsrep_debug is now a multi-valued variable to assist in controlling the logging, and logging messages have been significantly improved.

Running Percona XtraDB Cluster on Raspberry PI 3

In a previous post, I showed you how to compile Percona Mysql 5.7 on Raspberry PI 3. Now, I’ll show you how to compile and run the latest version of Percona XtraDB Cluster 5.7.26.

We will need at least 3 RaspberryPi 3 boards, and I recommend you use an external SSD drive to compile and use as MySQL’s “datadir” to avoid the stalls associated with the microSD card, which will cause PXC to run slow.

In this post, we are going to run many OS commands and configure PXC. I recommend having minimal knowledge about PXC and Linux commands.
