  1. ITN270 Advanced Internet DatabasesLecture 14. Introduction to MySQL Administrationand the MySQL Data Directory Topics: Overview of Administrative Duties MySQL Data Sirectory ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  2. Overview of Administrative Duties • The MySQL Server • mysqld • MySQL Clients & Utilities • mysql • allows you to send SQL to the server & get results • mysqladmin • an administrative program • shutting down • checking status ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  3. Overview of Administrative Duties • MySQL Clients & Utilities • mysqlcheck • isamchk • myisamchk • table analysis • table optimization • crash recovery • mysqldump • backing up databases ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  4. Overview of Administrative Duties • The server’s language • SQL • The MySQL data directory • structure • where the files located • contents • file system ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  5. Administrative Duties • Server startup & shutdown • mysqld start/stop • User account maintenance • grant • Log file maintenance • it may fill up your system • Database backup & copying • mysqldump ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  6. Administrative Duties • Database replication • two servers have the same database • changes made in one propagate to the other • Server configuration & tuning • retrieval • updates • Multiple servers • each group may have its own server • MySQL software updates ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  7. Security • File system security • Server security • grant access priviliges ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  8. Database Repair & Maintenance • Crash recovery • Preventive maintenance ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  9. The MySQL Data Directory • The MySQL Data Directory Stores • databases • status files • log files ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  10. Location of the Data Directory • Install from a source distribution • /usr/local/mysql/var • Install from a binary distribution • /usr/local/mysql/data • Install from a RPM file • /var/lib/mysql • MS Windows • c:\mysql\data ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  11. Location of the Data Directory • Specification of the location of data directory --datadir = dir_name • Ask the server for location • mysqladmin variables • or ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  12. Structure of the Data Directory • Contains all the databases & tables • Tree structure • each database has a sub directory • tables in a database - files in the subdirectory • Status & Log files ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  13. How the MySQL Server Provides Access to Data ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  14. How the MySQL Server Provides Access to Data • When the server does not have exclusive control of the data directory • multiple servers on a single data directory • when run the table repair utilities ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  15. How the MySQL Represents Databases in the File System • Each database is a subdirectory under c:\mysql\data • Show DATABASES • dir in Windows • ls in unix/Linux • CREATE DATABASES db_name • cd DATADIR • mkdir db_name • chmod u=rwx,go-rwx dbname ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  16. How the MySQL Represents Databases in the File System • DROP DATABASE db_name • in UNIX • cd DATADIR • rm -rf db_name • in Windows • cd DATADIR • del /s db_name ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  17. How the Tables are represented • ISAM Tables • *.frm - description file for the format • *.ISD - data file for the contents • *.ISM - index information • MyISAM Tables • *.frm - format • *.MYD - data • *.MYI - index files ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  18. How the Tables are represented • MERGE Tables • *.frm • *.MRG • BDB Tables • *.frm - description • *.db - data & index • InnoDB Tables • *.frm • tablespace ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  19. OS constrains on Database & Table Naming • Alphanumeric characters, _, $ • 64 characters long • other characters can be used by quoting the name in backticks `odd@name` • case sensitivity ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  20. Factors that Affect Maximum Table Size • Internal Limits • ISAM: .ISD & .ISM <=4GB • MyISAM: .MYD & .MYI <= 4GB • BDB: 2 TetraBytes • InnoDB: 4Billion x 16KB • OS limits: • 2GB • Data Type of AUTO_INCREMENT ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  21. Implications of Data Directory Structure for System Performance • Multiple files for one table • Table opening time increases with the number of tables • TIME VS SPACE • Combine tables need more space • More tables need more time • Security • More user access same table if combined ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  22. Status & Log Files • Process ID file: • created when mysql starts • removed when shuts down • MySQL Log files • General Log file • Who is connecting • From Where • What queries thay are issuing ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  23. Status & Log Files • MySQL Log files • Update Log file • queries that update the databases • useful when there is a crash • Make sure they will not use up your file system space ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  24. Relocating Data Directory Contents • Relocation Methods • Specify your data directory at start up • Move the data & create a link • Assessing the effects of relocation • disk space • Relocating the entire data directory ITN270.001 Wake Tech

  25. Relocating Data Directory Contents • Relocating individual databases • shut down the server • copy or move database directory to ite new location • Remove the original database directory • Create a symlink • Restart the server ITN270.001 Wake Tech
