From the manual 4.10.4 "Replication will be done correctly with AUTO_INCREMENT, LAST_INSERT_ID(), and TIMESTAMP values."
I am somewhat fearful and curious about how this works. Say we have a master web database that gets replicated back to the office slave over the Internet. A person on the web puts in an order to the master web db, another person in the office enters a phone order, but that order goes into the slave because orders get shipped based on information in the office slave. How would I not at some point end up with replication errors because of duplicate auto_inc values? Would setting up replication as a circle help? Or would timing issues still cause a problem? (The insert on the Master beats the insert on the slave that was getting sent at the time) I am using 4.0.2 alpha so I am most concerned with how that version is affected.
