Re: replication general question
Hello. I haven't heard about periodical MySQL jobs, but Unix boxes usually have some midnight cron jobs (updating of locate database for example).

Re: replication general question
I don't think network latency would be an issue. This is within a protected
network dmz so it has it's own switch.
Here is the nagios script stuff. Might be more than what you need but let me
know if you are able to use some of it.
I have two on the server. first, I have:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] jabbott]# more secondsBehind.sh
#!/bin/sh
mysql -pMYSECRET -e "show slave status\G" | grep Seconds
Then I have this that I run in the rc.local. This sets up a port that listens
for a connection on port 5151. I have hole open in my firewall into my dmz for
port 5151
[EMAIL PROTECTED] jabbott]# more socket.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
use IO::Socket;
$server_port = 5151;
$server = IO::Socket::INET->new(LocalPort => $server_port,
Type => SOCK_STREAM,
Reuse => 1,
Listen=> 10)
or die "Could not be a tcp server on port $server_port : [EMAIL PROTECTED]";
while ($client = $server->accept ()) {
my $sysArg = `/home/jabbott/secondsBehind.sh`;
# uncomment the next line for debugging
print " $client is the new connection\n\n";
print $client "$sysArg\n";
print "connect \n";
close ($client);
}
close ($server);
Then, on the Nagios side I have this:
$ cat /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/mysql-replication-lag.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use lib "nagios/plugins" ;
use utils qw($TIMEOUT %ERRORS);
use IO::Socket;
$ENV{'PATH'}='';
$ENV{'BASH_ENV'}='';
$ENV{'ENV'}='';
my ($ip_address,$port,$warn,$critical) = @ARGV;
# Just in case of problems, let's not hang Nagios
$SIG{'ALRM'} = sub {
print "No Answer from Client\n";
exit $ERRORS{"UNKNOWN"};
};
alarm($TIMEOUT);
my $sock = new IO::Socket::INET(
PeerAddr => $ip_address,
PeerPort => $port,
Proto=> 'tcp',
);
unless ($sock) {
print "Socket could not be created. Reason: $!\n";
exit $ERRORS{'UNKNOWN'};
}
my $result = <$sock> || "Could not read socket\n";
close($sock);
alarm(0);
print $result;
unless ($result =~ /^\s*Seconds_Behind_Master:\s*/i) {
exit $ERRORS{'UNKNOWN'};
}
$result =~ s/\D//g;
exit $ERRORS{'CRITICAL'} if ($result>$critical);
exit $ERRORS{'WARNING'} if ($result>$warn);
exit $ERRORS{'OK'}
1;
__END__

Re: replication general question
What type of drives to you have on your system? That is often more important than CPU speed. My guess is that there are nightly maintenance crons slowing down disk access. I have never monitored replication via the seconds-behind-master function as we do not use 4.1, so I can't speak for how accurate it is..

replication general question
I have two mysql boxes setup. Fast machines, I think they are dual 3ghz with boat loads of ram. They are not real busy servers but they have some pretty good sized tables, one of them with a few million rows. My question is, I have Nagios setup to monitor the seconds behind master on the backup server. Usually the boxes are pretty current, within ten or twenty seconds. Other times though they seem to get way behind, like I just bumped the nagios warning email level up to 600 seconds. It doesn't seem to have anything to do really with usage because it usually happens in the middle of the night. Does Mysql do re-indexing or something? What could I do to figure out why the replicatant box is getting so far behind? --ja -- -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
