MariaDB
We welcome improvements to this page. To edit this page, Create a Funtoo account. Then log in and then click here to edit this page. See our editing guidelines to becoming a wiki-editing pro.
MariaDB is a drop in replacement for MySQL.
Mariadb's executable is /usr/bin/mysql
Mariadb's init script is /etc/init.d/mysql
Installation
root # emerge dev-db/mariadb
First Run & Lock Down
Mariadb requires configuration upon instillation.
To deploy Mariadb:
root # emerge --config dev-db/mariadb
root # rc-service mysql restart root # mysql_secure_installation
Binary logs
The binary logs are used for database replication and they are enabled by default in /etc/mysql/mariadb.d/50-distro-server.cnf:
50-distro-server.cnf [mysqld]
log-bin
One can disable binary logs by creating custom configuration file under /etc/mysql/mariadb.d/ and name it e.g. 75-local.cnf with content:
75-local.cnf [mysqld]
skip-log-bin
The status of the binary logs can be inspected by the No results or by the SQL command:
SHOW BINARY LOGS;
Binary log can be all removed:
RESET MASTER;
Use RESET MASTER only if you don't use replication at all or if the server is configured as master first time!
Unmaintained binary log files will grow in count and size and they can consume considerable disk space (in my case it was more than 2 GB). Then
one can purge old files by the PURGE BINARY LOGS SQL command. It can be used in two manners:
PURGE BINARY LOGS TO 'mariadb-bin.000036';
PURGE BINARY LOGS BEFORE '2017-08-24 11:13';
Purging old logs can be automated by the expire-logs-days configuration option, with number of days to keep logs.
Log's file name can be configured by the log-basename or log-bin options. If not configured, the default mariadb-bin with
numbered extension will be used.
The default (unconfigured) log's file name was changed in time. The older MariaDB versions was using mysql-bin and even older setups was
using hostname in name. It is safe to remove the old files, because they are not used by server more.
