howdy.
we use the binary log as a crash recovery tool. therefore, once we have backed up the db (we use the excellent mysql_backup for this) we can happily discard yesterday's binlog. the only correct way i've found to get rid of old binlogs in to issue RESET MASTER, and i figure i should do this at the same time that the logs get flushed. however, neither mysqldump nor mysqladmin have a RESET MASTER option. has anyone found a good way to do this? --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
