Hi,
I employ a simple method, I have a 'status' table on the master and have a cron job that updates this table with the current time (now()) every minute. I test all the slaves each minute and if the time in the status table gets too far behind the actual time then it flags a warning to me.
Cheers,
A
That's a great idea, thanks!
On a related note, I have two servers, one slave, one master, and I want to secure the datapath between them. What's the "best" way ? (on Linux, if that matters) I am considering stunnel, or ssh tunnel, or is there something in MySQL I can use to connect securely?
