Prepare the RPM repository server

Install the software to create a RPM repository server (on an Ubuntu web server):

shell> sudo apt-get install createrepo

Create the directory structures and initialize the repositories:

shell> sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/repos/centos/7/os/x86_64
shell> sudo createrepo /var/www/html/repos/centos/7/os/x86_64/

Copy the MySQL Enterprise RPM packages to the repository:

shell> sudo cd /var/www/html/repos/centos/7/os/x86_64/
shell> sudo unzip -v /download/V790254-01.zip   # MySQL Enterprise Server 5.7.16

If you have already Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 (RHEL 7) or CentOS 7 in use you probably found out, that it is not that easy to install MySQL Enterprise Server because there are already pre-installed MariaDB 5.5 libraries:

This tutorial shows how to install an Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) server (with Apache2, BIND, Dovecot) for the installation of ISPConfig 3.1, and how to install ISPConfig. ISPConfig 3 is a web hosting control panel that allows you to configure the following services through a web browser: Apache or nginx web server, Postfix mail server, Courier or Dovecot IMAP/POP3 server, MySQL, BIND or MyDNS nameserver, PureFTPd, SpamAssassin, ClamAV, and many more. This setup covers the installation of Apache (instead of nginx), BIND (instead of MyDNS), and Dovecot (instead of Courier).

The post MMUG16: MySQL document store: SQL and NoSQL united first appeared on Simon J Mudd's Blog.

In this blog post, we’ll look at how replication triggers a Performance Schema issue on Percona XtraDB Cluster.

During an upgrade to Percona XtraDB Cluster 5.6, I faced an issue that I wanted to share. In this environment, we set up three Percona XtraDB Cluster nodes (mostly configured as default), copied from a production server. We configured one of the members of the cluster as the slave of the production server.

During the testing process, we found that a full table scan query was taking four times less in the nodes where replication was not configured. After reviewing mostly everything related to the query, we decided to use perf.

We executed:

perf record -a -g -F99 -p $(pidof mysqld) -- sleep 60

And the query in another terminal a couple of times. …

The event takes place on 3-4 November 2016 at Olympia Conference Centre, London and will provide you with the tools to deliver your most effective data-driven strategy.

We will be exhibiting on stand 514 and we would be delighted

The pt-online-schema-change tool has been a workhorse for years, allowing MySQL DBAs to alter tables with minimal impact to application workload, and before MySQL had native online alter capabilities. Although consistently grateful for the tool’s existence, I never liked the messiness of having to use and clean up triggers, and most DBAs have a horror story or two to tell about using any of the online alter methods.

When Github’s online schema transmogrifer (gh-ost; https://github.com/github/gh-ost) was released, then, I jumped on the chance to test it out.

Following are my testing notes. I tried out the flags available to run gh-ost from different locations in a replication setup, both functionally and under load. The load applied was via mysqlslap, using a …
