Daevid, I'm not quite sure I understand why you want to restart your master. Adding a slave shouldn't require any restarts/reloads.
What have you changed in the my.cnf to solicit a restart?

Is there a way to "/etc/init.d/mysql start" WITHOUT doing an integrity check? Can I pass in a command line parameter or set something in the my.cnf file? Our DB is a Billion rows (with a "B") and that check can take HOURS. All we want to do is restart the server to put another slave online because sadly "/etc/init.d/mysql reload" does NOT re-load the config file (as one might hope), it is only to reload PRIVS (how useless is that since GRANT already does that). -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql?unsub=andrew.2.mo...@nokia.com -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql?unsub=arch...@jab.org
