Hello, I have a feature request for mysqldump that would greatly ease a current task I have; in my replicated setup my master is currently MyISAM (as are most slaves), but I have one slave that is InnoDB for testing.
Somehow or other, it's gotten itself out of sync, so I'm in the position of needing to resync it. If I were to do the usual mysqldump --add-drop-table $db | mysql then everything will be recreated as MyISAM. If mysqldump had a couple of extra options; --truncate-table --create-if-not-exists Which, respectively, truncate a table before inserting any rows to it, and only create a table if it doesn't already exist (merely by placing the relevant already-implemented commands in 4.1 in the sql dump) I would have a one-step process for resyncing my MyISAM master to a slave of differing table types, by keeping the already-created slave tables. I'm sure these could probably come in useful for other scenarios too. Would this be possible/feasible/useful to anyone else?
