The client library — libmysqlclient — is part of the same source code repository as the server. It comes both as a dynamic link library (.so), also called a shared library, and as a static link library (.a). During the 5.7 development cycle, we’ve made several improvements to the library, which has resulted in a bump from ABI version 18 to version 20.…

Requires ClusterControl. Applies to all supported database clusters. Applies to all supported operating systems (RHEL/CentOS/Debian/Ubuntu).

ClusterControl requires a super-privileged SSH user to provision database nodes. If you are running as non-root user, the corresponding user must able to execute sudo commands with or without sudo password. Unfortunately, this could generate another issue where performing remote command with “sudo” requires an interactive session (tty). We will explain this in details in the next sections.

What’s up with sudo?

By default, most of the RHEL flavors have the following configured under /etc/sudoers:

Defaults requiretty

When an interactive session (tty) is required, each time the sudo user SSH into the box with -t flag (force pseudo-tty allocation), entries …

With the material covered in the first two articles, we have all the elements needed to set up replication in Docker. We just need to put the pieces together.
If you want to do everything by hand, it will only take a few minutes. The steps are not complicated. If you have followed the reasoning in the past episodes, you will know what to do.
Or, you can make your life easier by using the ready-made scripts available in Github as MySQL …

A new version of the Group Replication plugin for MySQL is available now. The newest release is available on Mac OS X, Solaris, and FreeBSD.
