NAME
ndb_desc - describe NDB tables SYNOPSIS
ndb_desc options DESCRIPTION
ndb_desc provides a detailed description of one or more NDB tables. Usage ndb_desc -c connect_string tbl_name -d db_name [-p] (MySQL Cluster NDB 7.2.9 and later:) ndb_desc -c connect_string index_name -d db_name -t tbl_name Sample Output MySQL table creation and population statements: USE test; CREATE TABLE fish ( id INT(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, name VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL, length_mm INT(11) NOT NULL, weight_gm INT(11) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY pk (id), UNIQUE KEY uk (name) ) ENGINE=NDB; INSERT INTO fish VALUES ('','guppy', 35, 2), ('','tuna', 2500, 150000), ('','shark', 3000, 110000), ('','manta ray', 1500, 50000), ('','grouper', 900, 125000), ('','puffer', 250, 2500); Output from ndb_desc: shell> ./ndb_desc -c localhost fish -d test -p -- fish -- Version: 2 Fragment type: 9 K Value: 6 Min load factor: 78 Max load factor: 80 Temporary table: no Number of attributes: 4 Number of primary keys: 1 Length of frm data: 311 Row Checksum: 1 Row GCI: 1 SingleUserMode: 0 ForceVarPart: 1 FragmentCount: 2 TableStatus: Retrieved -- Attributes -- id Int PRIMARY KEY DISTRIBUTION KEY AT=FIXED ST=MEMORY AUTO_INCR name Varchar(20;latin1_swedish_ci) NOT NULL AT=SHORT_VAR ST=MEMORY length_mm Int NOT NULL AT=FIXED ST=MEMORY weight_gm Int NOT NULL AT=FIXED ST=MEMORY -- Indexes -- PRIMARY KEY(id) - UniqueHashIndex PRIMARY(id) - OrderedIndex uk$unique(name) - UniqueHashIndex uk(name) - OrderedIndex -- Per partition info -- Partition Row count Commit count Frag fixed memory ... 0 2 2 32768 ... 1 4 4 32768 ... ... Frag varsized memory Extent_space Free extent_space ... 32768 0 0 ... 32768 0 0 NDBT_ProgramExit: 0 - OK Information about multiple tables can be obtained in a single invocation of ndb_desc by using their names, separated by spaces. All of the tables must be in the same database. Beginning with MySQL Cluster NDB 7.2.9, it is possible to obtain additional information about a specific index using the --table (short form: -t) option introduced in this version and supplying the name of the index as the first argument to ndb_desc, as shown here: shell> ./ndb_desc uk -d test -t fish -- uk -- Version: 3 Base table: fish Number of attributes: 1 Logging: 0 Index type: OrderedIndex Index status: Retrieved -- Attributes -- name Varchar(20;latin1_swedish_ci) NOT NULL AT=SHORT_VAR ST=MEMORY -- IndexTable 10/uk -- Version: 3 Fragment type: FragUndefined K Value: 6 Min load factor: 78 Max load factor: 80 Temporary table: yes Number of attributes: 2 Number of primary keys: 1 Length of frm data: 0 Row Checksum: 1 Row GCI: 1 SingleUserMode: 2 ForceVarPart: 0 FragmentCount: 4 ExtraRowGciBits: 0 ExtraRowAuthorBits: 0 TableStatus: Retrieved -- Attributes -- name Varchar(20;latin1_swedish_ci) NOT NULL AT=SHORT_VAR ST=MEMORY NDB$TNODE Unsigned [64] PRIMARY KEY DISTRIBUTION KEY AT=FIXED ST=MEMORY -- Indexes -- PRIMARY KEY(NDB$TNODE) - UniqueHashIndex NDBT_ProgramExit: 0 - OK When an index is specified in this way, the --extra-partition-info and --extra-node-info options have no effect. The Version column in the output contains the table's schema object version. For information about interpreting this value, see NDB Schema Object Versions[1]. The Extent_space and Free extent_space columns are applicable only to NDB tables having columns on disk; for tables having only in-memory columns, these columns always contain the value 0. To illustrate their use, we modify the previous example. First, we must create the necessary Disk Data objects, as shown here: CREATE LOGFILE GROUP lg_1 ADD UNDOFILE 'undo_1.log' INITIAL_SIZE 16M UNDO_BUFFER_SIZE 2M ENGINE NDB; ALTER LOGFILE GROUP lg_1 ADD UNDOFILE 'undo_2.log' INITIAL_SIZE 12M ENGINE NDB; CREATE TABLESPACE ts_1 ADD DATAFILE 'data_1.dat' USE LOGFILE GROUP lg_1 INITIAL_SIZE 32M ENGINE NDB; ALTER TABLESPACE ts_1 ADD DATAFILE 'data_2.dat' INITIAL_SIZE 48M ENGINE NDB; (For more information on the statements just shown and the objects created by them, see Section 17.5.12.1, "MySQL Cluster Disk Data Objects", as well as Section 13.1.14, "CREATE LOGFILE GROUP Syntax", and Section 13.1.18, "CREATE TABLESPACE Syntax".) Now we can create and populate a version of the fish table that stores 2 of its columns on disk (deleting the previous version of the table first, if it already exists): CREATE TABLE fish ( id INT(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, name VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL, length_mm INT(11) NOT NULL, weight_gm INT(11) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY pk (id), UNIQUE KEY uk (name) ) TABLESPACE ts_1 STORAGE DISK ENGINE=NDB; INSERT INTO fish VALUES ('','guppy', 35, 2), ('','tuna', 2500, 150000), ('','shark', 3000, 110000), ('','manta ray', 1500, 50000), ('','grouper', 900, 125000), ('','puffer', 250, 2500); When run against this version of the table, ndb_desc displays the following output: shell> ./ndb_desc -c localhost fish -d test -p -- fish -- Version: 3 Fragment type: 9 K Value: 6 Min load factor: 78 Max load factor: 80 Temporary table: no Number of attributes: 4 Number of primary keys: 1 Length of frm data: 321 Row Checksum: 1 Row GCI: 1 SingleUserMode: 0 ForceVarPart: 1 FragmentCount: 2 TableStatus: Retrieved -- Attributes -- id Int PRIMARY KEY DISTRIBUTION KEY AT=FIXED ST=MEMORY AUTO_INCR name Varchar(20;latin1_swedish_ci) NOT NULL AT=SHORT_VAR ST=MEMORY length_mm Int NOT NULL AT=FIXED ST=DISK weight_gm Int NOT NULL AT=FIXED ST=DISK -- Indexes -- PRIMARY KEY(id) - UniqueHashIndex PRIMARY(id) - OrderedIndex uk$unique(name) - UniqueHashIndex uk(name) - OrderedIndex -- Per partition info -- Partition Row count Commit count Frag fixed memory ... 0 2 2 32768 ... 1 4 4 32768 ... ... Frag varsized memory Extent_space Free extent_space ... 32768 0 0 ... 32768 0 0 NDBT_ProgramExit: 0 - OK This means that 1048576 bytes are allocated from the tablespace for this table on each partition, of which 1044440 bytes remain free for additional storage. In other words, 1048576 - 1044440 = 4136 bytes per partition is currently being used to store the data from this table's disk-based columns. The number of bytes shown as Free extent_space is available for storing on-disk column data from the fish table only; for this reason, it is not visible when selecting from the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.FILES table. The following table includes options that are specific to ndb_desc. Additional descriptions follow the table. For options common to most MySQL Cluster programs (including ndb_desc), see Options Common to MySQL Cluster Programs(1).

Use of this option also requires the use of the --extra-partition-info (-p) option. o --database=db_name, -d Specify the database in which the table should be found. o --extra-node-info, -n Include information about the mappings between table partitions and the data nodes upon which they reside. This information can be useful for verifying distribution awareness mechanisms and supporting more efficient application access to the data stored in MySQL Cluster. Use of this option also requires the use of the --extra-partition-info (-p) option. o --extra-partition-info, -p Print additional information about the table's partitions. o --retries=#, -r Try to connect this many times before giving up. One connect attempt is made per second. o --table=tbl_name, -t Specify the table in which to look for an index. This option was added in MySQL Cluster NDB 7.2.9. o --unqualified, -u Use unqualified table names. COPYRIGHT
