Not exactly the same. But for intents and purposes it does what you want. If you want to truly make it seem like the system went down and came up, do the following: # kill -9 <safe_mysql pid> # kill `cat /path/to/mysql.pid` # /path/to/safe_mysqld & Or you can try this. # /etc/init.d/mysqld stop (or something similar) then # /etc/init.d/mysqld start -- -reid --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
