The binaries, RPMS (RedHat/Centos) and full source code also available to download
P.S. There is Jeremy Cole’s patch for InnoDB plugin MySQL 5.1, and main idea was taken from there.
About Vadim Tkachenko
je vous remercie de partager, très gentil de votre part
This is great! Can we expect to see this coming out in the Percona 5.1 binaries as well?
Is this patch also for the 5.0.68 Percona release available?
Gregory:
I think in 5.1 we will include Jeremey Cole’s patch
Nils,
It is only for 5.0.67, will release for 5.0.68 later
I am looking for a similar tool for the ibdata and ibd files – somethings that dumps page numbers and for each page tells me what the page is and does.
Isotopp,
It is on our todo, will implement it when we can
I am getting “404 Page Not Found” error when trying to download the batch. Please help me to download the same.
