Summary : MySQL: a very fast and reliable SQL database engine
Description :
MySQL is a true multi-user, multi-threaded SQL (Structured Query Language)
database server. SQL is the most popular database language in the world. MySQL
is a client/server implementation that consists of a server daemon mysqld and
many different client programs/libraries.
The main goals of MySQL are speed, robustness and easy to use. MySQL was
originally developed because we at Tcx needed a SQL server that could handle
very big databases with magnitude higher speed than what any database vendor
could offer to us. We have now been using MySQL since 1996 in a environment with
more than 40 databases, 10,000 tables, of which more than 500 have more than 7
million rows. This is about 50G of mission critical data.
The base upon which MySQL is built is a set of routines that have been used in a
highly demanding production environment for many years. While MySQL is still in
development, it already offers a rich and highly useful function set.

[root@flp fran]#
also tried to restart mysqld ...since it does not appear to be running, but is
listed in all run levels to be started on boot. Results follow:
[root@flp fran]# mysqld
000902 9:56:10 mysqld: Can't find file: 'host.ISM' (errno: 2)
000902 9:56:10 mysqld: Normal shutdown
Segmentation fault
[root@flp fran]#
Now that looks like the real problem?? no host.ISM ... searched for it ... not
found.
Created file on installation or run?
Hmmmmmm?
