The CHANGE MASTER is probably correct, but it is difficult to find the right spot. A simple way is to 1. Stop all writes everywhere. 2. Wait for replication to catchup everywhere. 3. FLUSH LOGS everywhere. 4. Now CHANGE MASTER on the Slave to the start (POS=0 or 4) of the freshly created binlog in the machine that is the Slave's new Master. 5. Start writes. > -----Original Message----- > From: Richard Reina [mailto:gatorre...@gmail.com] > Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2013 6:00 AM > To: Manuel Arostegui > Cc: mysql@lists.mysql.com > Subject: Re: Chain Replication QUestion > > Hello Manuel, > > Thank you for your reply.
