As the monitor event is now stored in the server, it can be re-used when
the event is converted to string form. This also fixes the problem of
state calculation taking place when the event happened in the past.
The failover command is simulated by executing a call to /usr/bin/echo
with all possible monitor parameters. This allows testing of the failover
mechanism without actually using the failover command.
The timestamp of the last change from passive to active is now
tracked. This, with the timestamps of the last master_down and master_up
events, allows detection of cases when MaxScale was failed over but the
failover was not done.
Currently, only a warning is logged if no new master has appeared within
90 seconds of a master_down event and MaxScale was set to active from
passive.
The last event and when the event was triggered is now shown for all
servers. The latest change from passive to active is also shown.
When an event occurs on a server, it is now stored so that the last event
for each server is known. This allows a state change to trigger an event
even if, at the time of the event, no action was taken.
This change is only cosmetic as no functionality is implemented.
The `passive` parameter can be given in the configuration file or on the
command line. It is displayed in the diagnostic output and changes to it
are persisted.
The variable itself does nothing.
The `script_timeout` and `journal_max_age` parameters weren't handled in
the monitor alteration code.
Also added missing documentation to maxadmin help output for
`alter monitor`.
When the database firewall filter is used in white-list mode,
'USE <db>' should be allowed. When connecting, it is always
possible to specify the database anyway so restricting
'USE <db>' serves no purpose.
If a script variable resolves to an empty string, the replacement attempt
will fail with an out-of-memory error. The following realloc call will
fail as it requires a positive value for the new size.
The result of the authentication should be ignored but the scramble that
is calculated as a side-effect still needs to be stored. This can be done
by altering the SQL used to get the matching row to only match on the
username, not the network address.
Also expanded the test case to cover the use of bad credentials.
The avrorouter now uses the parameters from the source service. This
removes the need for redundant parameter definition in the avrorouter
service when they are defined in the binlogrouter service as parameters.
Added some missing configuration sanity checks and updated the tutorial to
reflect the new configuration method introduced in 2.1.
The documentation stated that the binlogrouter would use the cache
directory to store the binary log files. In reality, there was no default
value and the service would fail to start without a binlogdir parameter.
The router now uses the data directory (/var/lib/maxscale/) to store the
binary logs.
Set the default value of mariadb10-compatibility to true. This is in line
with the fact that most installations should use the router with a MariaDB
10.0 server or newer.
If a prepared statement fails to execute on a backend server, no prepared
statement ID is returned. As the connection to the slave backend will be
closed when the result of a session command differs from the master's
response, there's no need to even attempt extracting the response.
This change avoids the triggering of a false positive in
mxs_mysql_extract_ps_response when an attempt to extract a
COM_STMT_PREPARE response is made on a response that isn't a
COM_STMT_PREPARE response.
When readwritesplit is routing any queued queries, the currently executed
command of the protocol modules needs to be adjusted by
readwritesplit. This is not a true fix but more of a workaround to fix the
problems of queued query execution.
The correct solution would be to move the queued query handling into the
client protocol module so that all components see the same state.
Asserting that only a complete COM_STMT_PREPARE is returned when the
prepared statement preparation is extracted will guarantee that the
protocol works as expected.
If a prepared statement sends large amounts of data, the target server
where the data is sent will be tracked. The tracked target was not reset
after a multi-packet query was completed and the target itself was used to
check whether the session was processing a multi-packet query.
Changed the check to use the boolean variable instead of the target and
added a reset of the tracked target after a multi-packet query was
completed.
If an invoked script must access servers, it needs credentials.
When invoked, a script can now be provided with the monitor
credentials of MaxScale using the variable CREDENTIALS.
It will be expanded like
user:password@[...]:N1,user:password@[...]:N2
for every server the monitor in question is monitoring. That is,
irrespective of whether it is a master or a slave, running or not.
Thus, a failover script could be specified like:
[MyMonitor]
type=monitor
module=mysqlmon
...
script=.../failover.sh --credentials=$CREDENTIALS --slaves=$SLAVELIST
events=master_down
Note, it may make sense to introduce specific failover (and switchover)
keywords, but with the above addition it is possible to start
experimenting with failover scripts.
The new parameter allows the session to be "locked" to the master server
after a stored procedure is called. This will keep the session state
consistent if the stored procedure call modifies the state of the session.
The monitor performs simple monitoring of a group replication cluster. It
expects no extra parameters in addition to the common monitor parameters
and will only set master and slave status bits on the servers. It is a
part of the experimental package as it is a very experimental module.
Further improvements would be to add the usage of the synced state.
The CHILDREN parameter expands to a list of server IPs and ports that are
direct descendants of the server that initiated the event.
Also added a note that the variables can expand to empty strings if
nothing matches the criteria of the variable.
The scripts now replace the PARENT variable with the IP and port of the
server that is the direct parent node of the server that initiated the
event. For master-slave clusters, this will be the master IP if the server
that triggered the event is a slave.
