Checking out MariaDB 10.0.2

I downloaded the MariaDB 10.0.2 source package and did a custom install.  I did this because of a previous post in which I had 2 masters already built. This time I removed the circular replication and pointed them to this mariadb install. I used port 3310 this time. Same install configuration examples from previous post would apply here just now put into mariadb-10.0.2 folders. I added the install at the bottom of this post just in case you want it.

The reason I did this was because I wanted to check out the latest MariaDB features primarily the following:
Multi-source replication

Make sure you have different server-ids set per server to start with.

Just started so nothing here should be expected

So gather information from a master server
> show master status\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
File: percona_mysql-bin.000005
Position: 107


Now update the Mariadb 10.0.2 slave
SET @@default_master_connection='percona';

CHANGE MASTER 'percona' TO MASTER_HOST = '127.0.0.1',
MASTER_USER = 'root',
MASTER_PASSWORD = '',
MASTER_PORT = 3307 ,
MASTER_LOG_FILE = 'percona_mysql-bin.000005',
MASTER_LOG_POS = 107



> select @@default_master_connection;
+-----------------------------+
| @@default_master_connection |
+-----------------------------+
| percona                     |
+-----------------------------+

OK Now let me add the second master
SET @@default_master_connection='oracle';

CHANGE MASTER 'oracle' TO MASTER_HOST = '127.0.0.1',
MASTER_USER = 'root',
MASTER_PASSWORD = '',
MASTER_PORT = 3309 ,
MASTER_LOG_FILE = 'oracle_mysql-bin.000009',
MASTER_LOG_POS = 5453


Next you can check the status to ensure both settings are set up.

So let us test some situations.

Via Percona master
use test;
CREATE TABLE `multi_test` (
`time_recorded` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
) ENGINE=InnoDB;

MariaDB Slave
> show tables;
+----------------+
| Tables_in_test |
+----------------+
| multi_test |
+----------------+

Via Oracle MySQL master
use test;
CREATE TABLE `multi_test2` (
`time_recorded` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
) ENGINE=InnoDB;

MariaDB Slave
> show tables;
+----------------+
| Tables_in_test |
+----------------+
| multi_test |
| multi_test2 |
+----------------+

OK that works !


SHOW EXPLAIN
This is rather straight forward but nice to catch a query as it is running.

Side notes:


Cassandra Storage Engine
I am curious about this and how it relates to the NoSQL and Innodb solution via memcache.
I have a post on that here: http://anothermysqldba.blogspot.com/2013/04/nosql-php-memcache-innodb-mysql.html

I will have to come back to this as I set up Cassandra on my environment. I am not eager but curious.


User Feedback Plugin
The documentation "Quick start" says to add to the my.cnf file under [mysqld]
[mysqld]
feedback=ON
port = 3310
socket = /tmp/mariadb-10.0.2.sock

130513 17:45:10 InnoDB: 10.0.2-MariaDB started; log sequence number 20183690
130513 17:45:10 [ERROR] /usr/local/mariadb-10.0.2/bin/mysqld: unknown variable 'feedback=ON'

This worked a lot easier and as expect this way once I removed the "Quick start" instructions.
> INSTALL PLUGIN feedback SONAME 'feedback.so';

> SELECT plugin_status FROM information_schema.plugins WHERE plugin_name = 'feedback';
+---------------+
| plugin_status |
+---------------+
| ACTIVE |
+---------------+


Via the error log you can also see it working:

[Note] feedback plugin: report to 'http://mariadb.org/feedback_plugin/post' was sent
[Note] feedback plugin: server replied 'ok'



Overall my current favorite enhancements are :



The basic install was this:
# Preconfiguration setup
shell> groupadd mariadb
shell> useradd -r -g mariadb mariadb

# Beginning of source-build specific instructions
shell> tar zxvf MariaDB-VERSION.tar.gz
shell> cd MariaDB-VERSION
shell> cmake .
shell> make
shell> make install DESTDIR="/usr/local/mariadb-10.0.2-tmp"
# End of source-build specific instructions

Build files have been written to: /usr/local/src/MySQL/MariaDB/10.0.2/mariadb-10.0.2

I do not like the results
-- Installing: /usr/local/mariadb-10.0.2-tmp/usr/local/mysql/
If DESTDIR is should install into that location not start with user under that location. This is a MySQL original issue as it does this with all versions of MySQL.

# Fix the odd/bug setup
shell> cd /usr/local/mariadb-10.0.2-tmp
shell> mv usr/local/mysql/ ../mariadb-10.0.2 ;
shell> cd ../; # rm -Rf mariadb-10.0.2-tmp

# Postinstallation setup
shell> cd /usr/local/mariadb-10.0.2
shell> chown -R mariadb .
shell> chgrp -R mariadb .

# Next command is optional
shell> cp support-files/my-small.cnf /etc/mariadb-10.0.2.cnf
shell> vi /etc/mariadb-10.0.2.cnf
port = 3310
socket = /tmp/mariadb-10.0.2.sock
