I was trying to get a confirmation too. In any event, Charles, I'd try these three steps below and see what happens. I assume that information_schema is populated "on the fly". David.

The users found in mysqlinst1 are not in mysqlinst2. There are about 30 users defined in inst1 and only 4 in inst2. I would like to sync these tables. How do you do it in short of creating 26 accounts in mysqlinst2 one at a time - too tedious. Help me I'm running out of time. -----Original Message----- From: David Lerer [mailto:dle...@us.univision.com] Sent: Friday, March 16, 2012 1:36 PM To: Baron Schwartz; MySql; Brown, Charles Subject: RE: how to sync mysql.user table between to two mysql instances As a follow up question, will it be ok to do the following: 1. mysqldump -hmysql-inst2 mysql 2. Backup mysql-inst1 and use the backup to restore to mysql-inst2 3. mysql -hmysql-inst2 mysql This way I hope to be able to refresh a DEV instance from a PROD database, but preserve the permissions, users, passwords, etc (Assuming of course that the schemas are identical on the two instances). Thanks, David. -----Original Message----- From: baron.schwa...@gmail.com [mailto:baron.schwa...@gmail.com] On Behalf Of Baron Schwartz Sent: Friday, March 16, 2012 2:20 PM To: MySql Subject: Re: how to sync mysql.user table between to two mysql instances Charles, 1. With mysqldump. mysqldump -hmysql-inst1 mysql | mysql -hmysql-inst2 mysql 2. With pt-table-sync from Percona Toolkit if you need something more sophisticated.
