crossover replication

2002-10-09 Thread Kevan Louou 

If my mysql master is under Linux and my slave under
Windows, if the master crashes, can I make the slave a
master once I recover the Linux machine even if data
is replicated 100%? Does replication only involves
data? Would there be issues that would make my Windows
slave incompatible as a master under Linux?

thanks

Yes.

 Does replication only involves data?

I'm not sure what you mean by that.

 as a master under Linux?

Shouldn't be, no.  As long as the Windows box can handle the traffic,
you should be fine.
