This is wishful thinking, but I figured I'd ask anyway: the manual states:
"Starting from MySQL 4.1, the --tmpdir option can be set to a list of several paths that are used in round-robin fashion." Are these directories promotable at all? In other words, if I specify an 8G partition and a 20G partition, and a temporary table runs out of space in the former, will MySQL attempt to move it to the latter? We've been considering the purchase of a flash drive as a temporary disk for some of our larger reports, but on occassion we'll run a Very Large Report that would easily overrun the smaller disk. ____________________________________________________________ Eamon Daly -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
