Hi All, I have a question on purging some old bin-logs.
whats the best way to do it? This is a fairly old version - 4.0.18-standard-log. I have 128 1 GB files out there, going back 8 months. I think the correct syntax is : PURGE BINARY LOGS TO 'mysql-bin.010'; but from what the previous admin who I inherited this from says, this locks up the whole database while its purging the logs. Are there any low-impact solutions? This is a fairly high traffic DB, so locking up the database really is not an option. Thanks!
