15.5.3. Handling MySQL Recovery with ZFS

When using ZFS replication to provide a constant copy of your data, ensure that you can recover your tables, either manually or automatically, in the event of a failure of the original system.

In the event of a failure, follow this sequence:

  1. Stop the script on the master, if it is still up and running.

  2. Set the slave file system to be read/write:

    root-shell> zfs set readonly=off slavepool
  3. Start up mysqld on the slave. If you are using InnoDB, you get auto-recovery, if it is needed, to make sure the table data is correct, as shown here when I started up from our mid-INSERT snapshot:

    InnoDB: The log sequence number in ibdata files does not matchInnoDB: the log sequence number in the ib_logfiles!081109 15:59:59  InnoDB: Database was not shut down normally!InnoDB: Starting crash recovery.InnoDB: Reading tablespace information from the .ibd files...InnoDB: Restoring possible half-written data pages from the doublewriteInnoDB: buffer...081109 16:00:03  InnoDB: Started; log sequence number 0 1142807951081109 16:00:03 [Note] /slavepool/mysql-5.0.67-solaris10-i386/bin/mysqld: ready for connections.Version: '5.0.67'  socket: '/tmp/mysql.sock'  port: 3306  MySQL Community Server (GPL)

Use InnoDB tables and a regular synchronization schedule to reduce the risk for significant data loss. On MyISAM tables, you might need to run REPAIR TABLE, and you might even have lost some information.
