Follow these basics when migrating to Percona XtraDB Cluster for MySQL

May 1, 2013 By Jervin Real 10 Comments

Galera/Percona XtraDB Cluster (PXC) for MySQL is a hot thing right now and some users jump right in without enough testing. Consequently, they’re more likely to either suffer failure or issues that prevent them from moving forward. If you are thinking of migrating your workload to Percona XtraDB Cluster, make sure to go through these [...]

InnoDB Full-text Search in MySQL 5.6 (part 1)

February 26, 2013 By Ernie Souhrada 1 Comment

I’ve never been a very big fan of MyISAM; I would argue that in most situations, any possible advantages to using MyISAM are far outweighed by the potential disadvantages and the strengths of InnoDB. However, up until MySQL 5.6, MyISAM was the only storage engine with support for full-text search (FTS). And I’ve encountered many [...]

Adventures in archiving

One of our Remote DBA service clients recently had an issue with size on disk for a particular table; in short this table was some 25 million rows of application audit data with an on disk size of 345GB recorded solely for the purposes of debugging which may or may not occur. Faced with the task of [...]

Implications of Metadata Locking Changes in MySQL 5.5

February 1, 2013 By Ovais Tariq 9 Comments

While most of the talk recently has mostly been around the new changes in MySQL 5.6 (and that is understandable), I have had lately some very interesting cases to deal with, with respect to the Metadata Locking related changes that were introduced in MySQL 5.5.3. It appears that the implications of Metadata Locking have not [...]

How to STOP SLAVE on Amazon RDS read replica

December 20, 2012 By Aurimas Mikalauskas 4 Comments

We are doing a migration from Amazon RDS to EC2 with a customer. This, unfortunately, involves some downtime – if you are an RDS user, you probably know you can’t replicate an RDS instance to an external server (or even EC2). While it is annoying, this post isn’t going to be a rant on how [...]

Replication of the NOW() function (also, time travel)

November 28, 2012 By Justin Swanhart 6 Comments

Notice the result of the NOW() function in the following query. The query was run on a real database server and I didn’t change the clock of the server or change anything in the database configuration settings.

mysql> SELECT NOW(),SYSDATE();
+---------------------+---------------------+
| NOW()               | SYSDATE()           |
+---------------------+---------------------+
| 1999-01-01 00:00:00 | 2012-11-29 05:50:03 |
+---------------------+---------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> SELECT NOW(),SYSDATE();

+---------------------+---------------------+

| NOW() | SYSDATE() |

+---------------------+---------------------+

| 1999-01-01 00:00:00 | 2012-11-29 05:50:03 |

+---------------------+---------------------+

1 row in set (0.00 sec)

You may proceed to party like it is 1999. How can the NOW() function return a value [...]

Edge-case behavior of INSERT…ODKU

October 27, 2012 By Ernie Souhrada 6 Comments

A few weeks back, I was working on a customer issue wherein they were observing database performance that dropped through the floor (to the point of an outage) roughly every 4 weeks or so. Nothing special about the environment, the hardware, or the queries; really, the majority of the database was a single table with [...]

Recovering from a bad UPDATE statement

October 19, 2012 By Michael Coburn 5 Comments

Did you just run an UPDATE against your 10 million row users table without a WHERE clause? Did you know that in MySQL 5.5 that sometimes you can recover from a bad UPDATE statement? This is possible if you are running in binlog_format=ROW ! Imagine this scenario:

CREATE TABLE `t1` (
 `c1` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
 `c2` varchar(10) NOT NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY (`c1`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB;
INSERT INTO `t1` (`c2`) VALUES ('michael'), ('peter'), ('aamina');

CREATE TABLE `t1` (

`c1` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,

`c2` varchar(10) NOT NULL,

PRIMARY KEY (`c1`)

) ENGINE=InnoDB;

INSERT INTO `t1` (`c2`) VALUES ('michael'), ('peter'), ('aamina');

We run an accidental UPDATE statement that [...]

When is MIN(DATE) != MIN(DATE) ?

September 4, 2012 By Ernie Souhrada 5 Comments

Inspiration for this post is courtesy of a friend and former colleague of mine, Greg Youngblood, who pinged me last week with an interesting MySQL puzzle. He was running Percona Server 5.5.21 with a table structure that looks something like this:

CREATE TABLE foo (
 id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
 uid INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL,
 update_time DATETIME NOT NULL,
 ....
 INDEX `uid` (uid, update_time),
 INDEX `bar` (some_other_columns)
 ....
) ENGINE=InnoDB;

CREATE TABLE foo (

id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,

uid INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL,

update_time DATETIME NOT NULL,

....

INDEX `uid` (uid, update_time),

INDEX `bar` (some_other_columns)

....

) ENGINE=InnoDB;

When he ran this query:

SELECT MIN(update_time) FROM foo WHERE update_time IS NOT NULL AND update_time <> '0000-00-00 00:00:00';

1	SELECT MIN(update_time) FROM foo WHERE update_time IS NOT NULL AND update_time <> '0000-00-00 00:00:00';

The result came back as 2012-06-22 10:28:16. [...]
