Some users and some scripts (for example, mysqld_multi.sh) use special option groups with names like [mysqld1], [mysqld2], ..., [mysqldN]. But SST scripts can't currently fully support these option groups. The only option group-related value it gets from the server is --defaults-group-suffix, if that option was set for mysqld when the server was started. However, the SST scripts does not get told by the server to read these option groups, so this means that the SST script will fail to read options like innodb-data-home-dir when it is in a option group like [mysqld1]...[mysqldN]. Moreover, SST scripts ignore many parameters that can be passed to them explicitly and cannot transfer them further, for example, to the input of mariabackup utility. Ideally, we want to transfer all the parameters of the original mysqld call to utilities such as mariabackup, however the SST script does not receive these parameters from the server and therefore cannot transfer them to mariabackup. To correct these shortcomings, we need to transfer to the scripts all of the parameters of the original mysqld call, and in the SST scripts themselves provide for the transfer all of these parameters to utilities such as mariabackup. To prevent these parameters from mixing with the script's own parameters, they should be transferred to SST script after the special option "--mysqld-args", followed by the string argument with the original parameters, as it received by the mysqld call at the time of launch (further all these parameters will be passed to mariabackup, for example). In addition, the SST scripts themselves must be refined so that they can read the parameters from the user-selected group, not just from the global mysqld configuration group. And also so that they can receive the parameters (which important for their work) as command-line arguments. |

Code status:
MariaDB: drop-in replacement for MySQL
MariaDB is designed as a drop-in replacement of MySQL(R) with more features, new storage engines, fewer bugs, and better performance.
MariaDB is brought to you by the MariaDB Foundation. Please read the CREDITS file for details about the MariaDB Foundation, and who is developing MariaDB.
MariaDB is developed by many of the original developers of MySQL who now work for the MariaDB Foundation and the MariaDB Corporation, and by many people in the community.
MySQL, which is the base of MariaDB, is a product and trademark of Oracle Corporation, Inc. For a list of developers and other contributors, see the Credits appendix. You can also run 'SHOW authors' to get a list of active contributors.
A description of the MariaDB project and a manual can be found at:
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-vs-mysql-features/
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-versus-mysql-features/
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-versus-mysql-compatibility/
As MariaDB is a full replacement of MySQL, the MySQL manual at http://dev.mysql.com/doc is generally applicable.
Help:
More help is available from the Maria Discuss mailing list https://launchpad.net/~maria-discuss and the #maria IRC channel on Freenode.
