People are using MySQL because it's different and can satisfy their
needs. Standards are useful, but not important for our current or
future users. Getting the job done and not having downtime, even when
upgrading, that is important!

my rule of the game is: different os user, different os user homedir,
different my.cnf (with different port/socket)

I think you are confusing a network
interface (such as a
tcp port) with a
physical network device (such as a LAN card).
For me the study guide is correct.

Hi John,
So according to this interpretation a port IS a network interface,
it means that I have thousands of network interfaces on my servers?
I never thought of a port as a network interface,
I always thought of it as an attribute(address of an application on the
host) of the tcp/ip protocol,
Hi Claudio,
I don't think its your English, I agree with you that its not just
confusing it is wrong.
Each server must have its own network interface
At least for my 10 years experience in IT and UNIX I would understand
network interface as physical network interface unless specified as

As long as you're running a 64-bit OS and a 64-bit version of MySQL,
there's no technical reason it would be limited to less than the
addressable space (that I know of). The main gain would
An interface by definition is a point of interconnection.
Maybe its a bit of a grey area where the interpretation can be different
depending on whether you think in terms of hardware or software.
Its the port which is used to communicate with the MySQL (or indeed any
other) server software so
John,
I don't want to argue too much on this but I'd also like the opinion of the
big heads in MySQL
I think there's no grey area here.
An interface is an interface and can be of any type and supporting any
protocol(TCP/IP on ethernet card, UDP idem. DSL on WAN card, PPP on POTS
modem)
A port is
Claudio,
Nobody is arguing, its a discussion list not an arguing list and this is a
good discussion to have on here. Im very interested in seeing what others
have to say about this but here is how I interpret it (based on my 18

Quoting John Daisley john.dais...@mypostoffice.co.uk:
I would say in terms of the MySQL server the interface is either a TCP/IP
Port, a Named Pipe, shared memory or a UNIX Socket. Depending on the host
operating system it can use any of those interfaces but each instance must
have its own
Andy,
Like I said, I would like to hear what others think and I'd be
particularly interested in some comment from within MySQL.

For the purposes of the exam, which I think the original question related
to, I would say you have to accept mysql's interpretation of 'network

study guide and the reference manual and thats what they are going to test
you on.
