Mysql Master Slave

This document describes how to set up MySQL master-slave replication. It involves 5 steps: 1) Installing MySQL on both servers, 2) Configuring the master server, 3) Creating a replication user on the master, 4) Configuring the slave server, and 5) Starting replication on the slave using the CHANGE MASTER TO command along with details from SHOW MASTER STATUS. Once set up, changes made to databases on the master will be replicated to the slave.

Mysql Replication

How it works

Mysql have 2 tipes of replication: master-slave
and master-master and it works doing a copy of
database in other server.

The main different bettween both is that in
mysql master-slave replication only the change
that do the master server will be made in the
slave server
Mysql master-slave

If we want to do a mysql master-slave we must
make the follow steps:

First step: the main is have installed mysql in
both server, we can do it with next commant
apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client
Mysql master-slave

Secont step: In the server 1 we need to do a change in the configuration file of
mysql. This can be on /etc/mysql/my.cnf, or also can use
/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf.

Open file and do the next changes:
Put a server Id on 1 and erase the #.
Erase the # of log_bin and binlog_dp_db and add the database that you need to do a
replication.
And comment the line bind-address with # because we need that mysql accept
conection not only of localhost
server-id =1
log_bin = /var/log/mysql/mysql-bin.log
binlog_do_db = exampledb
# bind-address = 127.0.0.1
Mysql master-slave

Third step: Log in mysql console and make an user with replication
privileges.
CREATE USER 'replicator'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT REPLICATION SLAVE ON *.* TO 'replicator'@'%';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

And now we need some information about the database. In mysql


console we write the next commant.
show master status;
and of the output write down the file and position because it will need
more ahead.
Mysql master-slave

Fourth step: In server 2 open the configuration
file (my.cnf), add the line 'server-id = 2' and the
# where start the line 'bind-address = 127.0.0.1'
because we need that server accept the
conection to the master server.
server-id = 2
#bind-address = 127.0.0.1
Mysql master-slave

Fifth step: log in mysql console and run the next commant
slave stop;
CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST = '52.89.254.78',
MASTER_USER = 'replicator', MASTER_PASSWORD = 'repli',
MASTER_LOG_FILE = 'mysql-bin.000001', MASTER_LOG_POS =
416;
slave start;
where MASTER_HOST is the server 1, replicator is the user created in
server 1, MASTER_LOG_FILE is the file that we have how output with
SHOW_MASTER_STATUS commant in the server 1, and
MASTER_LOG_POS is the position obtained with
SHOW_MASTER_STATUS.
Mysql master-slave

Last step: Test mysql master-slave.
Go to master server (server 1 in this case) and in
the mysql console do a new table with the next
commant.
create table exampledb.tabletest (`id`
varchar(10));
and check if tabletest was created in slave server
(server 2).
