NAME
mysql_convert_table_format - convert tables to use a given storage engine SYNOPSIS
mysql_convert_table_format [options] db_name DESCRIPTION
mysql_convert_table_format converts the tables in a database to use a particular storage engine (MyISAM by default). mysql_convert_table_format is written in Perl and requires that the DBI and DBD::mysql Perl modules be installed (see Section 2.13, "Perl Installation Notes"). Invoke mysql_convert_table_format like this: shell> mysql_convert_table_format [options]db_name The db_name argument indicates the database containing the tables to be converted. mysql_convert_table_format supports the options described in the following list. o --help Display a help message and exit. o --force Continue even if errors occur. o --host=host_name Connect to the MySQL server on the given host. o --password=password The password to use when connecting to the server. Note that the password value is not optional for this option, unlike for other MySQL programs. Specifying a password on the command line should be considered insecure. See Section 6.1.2.1, "End-User Guidelines for Password Security". You can use an option file to avoid giving the password on the command line. o --port=port_num The TCP/IP port number to use for the connection. o --socket=path For connections to localhost, the Unix socket file to use. o --type=engine_name Specify the storage engine that the tables should be converted to use. The default is MyISAM if this option is not given. o --user=user_name The MySQL user name to use when connecting to the server. o --verbose Verbose mode. Print more information about what the program does. o --version Display version information and exit. COPYRIGHT

NAME
mysql_setpermission - interactively set permissions in grant tables SYNOPSIS
mysql_setpermission [options] DESCRIPTION
mysql_setpermission is a Perl script that was originally written and contributed by Luuk de Boer. It interactively sets permissions in the MySQL grant tables. mysql_setpermission is written in Perl and requires that the DBI and DBD::mysql Perl modules be installed (see Section 2.15, "Perl Installation Notes"). Invoke mysql_setpermission like this: shell> mysql_setpermission [options] options should be either --help to display the help message, or options that indicate how to connect to the MySQL server. The account used when you connect determines which permissions you have when attempting to modify existing permissions in the grant tables. mysql_setpermissions also reads options from the [client] and [perl] groups in the .my.cnf file in your home directory, if the file exists. mysql_setpermission supports the following options: o --help Display a help message and exit. o --host=host_name Connect to the MySQL server on the given host. o --password=password The password to use when connecting to the server. Note that the password value is not optional for this option, unlike for other MySQL programs. Specifying a password on the command line should be considered insecure. See Section 5.3.2.2, "End-User Guidelines for Password Security". You can use an option file to avoid giving the password on the command line. o --port=port_num The TCP/IP port number to use for the connection. o --socket=path For connections to localhost, the Unix socket file to use. o --user=user_name The MySQL user name to use when connecting to the server.
