I'm rebuilding a server that is a slave to our primary. At this
point in the game, I can no longer access anything on the slave server
(its main drive is being rebuild). However, I do have a full rsync of
the /var/lib/mysql folder that was on it (this rsync was done AFTER
MySql was properly shutdown on this server.) And I have all the info
from the master server as well.
So the question is, once I finish rebuilding this machine and I
install MySQL back on it, what's the proper or safest way to rebuild the
slave setup and get it going again (and pick up where it left off before
the machine went down)? Can I simply rsync all the files back and start
MySQL?
Looking at the rsynced data, I can see the -relay-bin files, all the
mysql-bin files, and all the individual databases in their respective
folders:
