PT-SLAVE-DELAY(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation PT-SLAVE-DELAY(1p)
NAME
pt-slave-delay - Make a MySQL slave server lag behind its master.
SYNOPSIS
Usage: pt-slave-delay [OPTION...] SLAVE-HOST [MASTER-HOST]
pt-slave-delay starts and stops a slave server as needed to make it lag behind the master. The SLAVE-HOST and MASTER-HOST use DSN syntax,
and values are copied from the SLAVE-HOST to the MASTER-HOST if omitted.
To hold slavehost one minute behind its master for ten minutes:
pt-slave-delay --delay 1m --interval 15s --run-time 10m slavehost
RISKS
The following section is included to inform users about the potential risks, whether known or unknown, of using this tool. The two main
categories of risks are those created by the nature of the tool (e.g. read-only tools vs. read-write tools) and those created by bugs.
pt-slave-delay is generally very low-risk. It simply starts and stops the replication SQL thread. This might cause monitoring systems to
think the slave is having trouble.
At the time of this release, we know of no bugs that could cause serious harm to users.
The authoritative source for updated information is always the online issue tracking system. Issues that affect this tool will be marked
as such. You can see a list of such issues at the following URL: http://www.percona.com/bugs/pt-slave-delay
<http://www.percona.com/bugs/pt-slave-delay>.
See also "BUGS" for more information on filing bugs and getting help.
DESCRIPTION
"pt-slave-delay" watches a slave and starts and stops its replication SQL thread as necessary to hold it at least as far behind the master
as you request. In practice, it will typically cause the slave to lag between "--delay" and "--delay"+"--interval" behind the master.
It bases the delay on binlog positions in the slave's relay logs by default, so there is no need to connect to the master. This works well
if the IO thread doesn't lag the master much, which is typical in most replication setups; the IO thread lag is usually milliseconds on a
fast network. If your IO thread's lag is too large for your purposes, "pt-slave-delay" can also connect to the master for information
about binlog positions.
If the slave's I/O thread reports that it is waiting for the SQL thread to free some relay log space, "pt-slave-delay" will automatically
connect to the master to find binary log positions. If "--ask-pass" and "--daemonize" are given, it is possible that this could cause it
to ask for a password while daemonized. In this case, it exits. Therefore, if you think your slave might encounter this condition, you
should be sure to either specify "--use-master" explicitly when daemonizing, or don't specify "--ask-pass".
The SLAVE-HOST and optional MASTER-HOST are both DSNs. See "DSN OPTIONS". Missing MASTER-HOST values are filled in with values from
SLAVE-HOST, so you don't need to specify them in both places. "pt-slave-delay" reads all normal MySQL option files, such as ~/.my.cnf, so
you may not need to specify username, password and other common options at all.
"pt-slave-delay" tries to exit gracefully by trapping signals such as Ctrl-C. You cannot bypass "--[no]continue" with a trappable signal.
PRIVILEGES
pt-slave-delay requires the following privileges: PROCESS, REPLICATION CLIENT, and SUPER.
OUTPUT
If you specify "--quiet", there is no output. Otherwise, the normal output is a status message consisting of a timestamp and information
about what "pt-slave-delay" is doing: starting the slave, stopping the slave, or just observing.
OPTIONS
This tool accepts additional command-line arguments. Refer to the "SYNOPSIS" and usage information for details.
--ask-pass
Prompt for a password when connecting to MySQL.
--charset
short form: -A; type: string
Default character set. If the value is utf8, sets Perl's binmode on STDOUT to utf8, passes the mysql_enable_utf8 option to DBD::mysql,
and runs SET NAMES UTF8 after connecting to MySQL. Any other value sets binmode on STDOUT without the utf8 layer, and runs SET NAMES
after connecting to MySQL.
--config
type: Array
Read this comma-separated list of config files; if specified, this must be the first option on the command line.
--[no]continue
default: yes
Continue replication normally on exit. After exiting, restart the slave's SQL thread with no UNTIL condition, so it will run as usual
and catch up to the master. This is enabled by default and works even if you terminate "pt-slave-delay" with Control-C.
--daemonize
Fork to the background and detach from the shell. POSIX operating systems only.
--database
short form: -D; type: string
The database to use for the connection.
--defaults-file
short form: -F; type: string
Only read mysql options from the given file. You must give an absolute pathname.
--delay
type: time; default: 1h
How far the slave should lag its master.
--help
Show help and exit.
--host
short form: -h; type: string
Connect to host.
--interval
type: time; default: 1m
How frequently "pt-slave-delay" should check whether the slave needs to be started or stopped.
--log
type: string
Print all output to this file when daemonized.
--password
short form: -p; type: string
Password to use when connecting.
--pid
type: string
Create the given PID file when daemonized. The file contains the process ID of the daemonized instance. The PID file is removed when
the daemonized instance exits. The program checks for the existence of the PID file when starting; if it exists and the process with
the matching PID exists, the program exits.
--port
short form: -P; type: int
Port number to use for connection.
--quiet
short form: -q
Don't print informational messages about operation. See OUTPUT for details.
--run-time
type: time
How long "pt-slave-delay" should run before exiting. The default is to run forever.
--set-vars
type: string; default: wait_timeout=10000
Set these MySQL variables. Immediately after connecting to MySQL, this string will be appended to SET and executed.
--socket
short form: -S; type: string
Socket file to use for connection.
--use-master
Get binlog positions from master, not slave. Don't trust the binlog positions in the slave's relay log. Connect to the master and get
binlog positions instead. If you specify this option without giving a MASTER-HOST on the command line, "pt-slave-delay" examines the
slave's SHOW SLAVE STATUS to determine the hostname and port for connecting to the master.
"pt-slave-delay" uses only the MASTER_HOST and MASTER_PORT values from SHOW SLAVE STATUS for the master connection. It does not use
the MASTER_USER value. If you want to specify a different username for the master than the one you use to connect to the slave, you
should specify the MASTER-HOST option explicitly on the command line.
--user
short form: -u; type: string
User for login if not current user.
--version
Show version and exit.
DSN OPTIONS
These DSN options are used to create a DSN. Each option is given like "option=value". The options are case-sensitive, so P and p are not
the same option. There cannot be whitespace before or after the "=" and if the value contains whitespace it must be quoted. DSN options
are comma-separated. See the percona-toolkit manpage for full details.
o A
dsn: charset; copy: yes
Default character set.
o D
dsn: database; copy: yes
Default database.
o F
dsn: mysql_read_default_file; copy: yes
Only read default options from the given file
o h
dsn: host; copy: yes
Connect to host.
o p
dsn: password; copy: yes
Password to use when connecting.
o P
dsn: port; copy: yes
Port number to use for connection.
o S
dsn: mysql_socket; copy: yes
Socket file to use for connection.
o u
dsn: user; copy: yes
User for login if not current user.
ENVIRONMENT
The environment variable "PTDEBUG" enables verbose debugging output to STDERR. To enable debugging and capture all output to a file, run
the tool like:
PTDEBUG=1 pt-slave-delay ... > FILE 2>&1
Be careful: debugging output is voluminous and can generate several megabytes of output.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
You need Perl, DBI, DBD::mysql, and some core packages that ought to be installed in any reasonably new version of Perl.
