Hi,

I've managed to answer my own question, deleting master.info in the data
directory stops replication.

Thanks,

Shane

Hi All,

I currently have a MySQL solution configured in the following manner:

<db01> -> <db-01-new> -> <db-reporting-01>

db01 is currently our main database server and is replicating down to our
new soon-to-be main database server db-01-new which is in turn replicating
our reporting database db-reporting-01. db-01-new is currently acting as
both a master and a slave, but once it becomes the new main database server
and db01 is decomissioned it will only be a master.

Basically I'm concerned that once db-01-new becomes the main database
server that someone will accidentally start up the database server on db01
again and perform a write which will be replicated down to db-01-new. I
can't work out how to permanently disable db-01-new from being a slave.
Performing a 'stop slave;' isn't viable as the MySQL daemon will startup as
a slave again if it is restarted.

I've tried setting MASTER_HOST, MASTER_USER, etc to null but MySQL doesn't
seem to like that.

I've googled for an answer and looked through the MySQL site, but can't
find anything.

Any idea's?

Thanks,

Shane
