Install Percona Monitoring and Management using Docker

You can any distribution for installation- Rocky/Alma/CentoS 8 Stream. I assume you’ll use anyone of these instance.

Step 1: Add Docker Repository

Docker is not yet available on default repositories. Thankfully, an official repository has been provided by developers and we are going to add it first to the system. On your terminal, run the following command to add the Docker repository

$ sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo=https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/docker-ce.repo

Step 2: Install Docker in Rocky Linux/AlmaLinux

Moving on, we are going to install the Docker community edition which is freely available for download and use. But first, update the packages.

$ sudo dnf update

Next, run the command below to install Docker CE, the command-line interface (CLI), and other essential tools and dependencies. Continue reading “Install Percona Monitoring and Management using Docker” »

Exporting Percona Database

Exporting percona database is however a bit tricky way to make funcitonal. The usual-

mysqldump -u root -p [database] > database.sql

will stuck and shoot you many error. All you need is the add an extended parameters to execute the dump, and here it is:

mysqldump -u root -p [database] lock-for-backup > database.sql

And that should do the trick!

Install Percona XtraDB Cluster for MySQL 5.7 on Debian 8

First of all, why we choose three nodes and not only two? In any cluster, the number of nodes should be odd, so in the case of disconnection of a node, we assume that the highest group of servers has the fresh data, and should be replicated to the down node to avoid data loss. This is related only to resolve conflicts in data replication, we won’t loose data written only to the disconnected node.

This is used to avoid a circumstance called split brain, in which we can’t automatically choose which node has correct data. Think for example of a 2 node cluster where both nodes are disconnected from each other, and the same record is written to both nodes: who wins when they come back online? We don’t know, so split brain happens, and we have to manually decide wich record is the right one.

The number of nodes that is needed to determine wich part of the cluster has the right data is called QUORUM, in our case, the quorum will be 2. So we need 2 servers always be connected to each other. In case all three nodes will go down, we have a split brain and we must decide wich server should go in bootstrap mode manually, this is the procedure to determine wich will be the main server to resume from the split brain.

Configuring Percona XtraDB Cluster on Debian 8

This tutorial describes how to install and configure three Percona XtraDB Cluster nodes on Debian 8 servers, we will be using the packages from the Percona repositories.

Node 1
Hostname: mysql1.local.vm
IP address: 192.168.152.100
Node 2
Hostname: mysql2.local.vm
IP address: 192.168.152.110
Node 3
Hostname: mysql3.local.vm
IP address: 192.168.152.120

On each host, modify file /etc/hosts as follows to ensure DNS will work correctly. Continue reading “Install Percona XtraDB Cluster for MySQL 5.7 on Debian 8” »

Setup Percona on Debian 7

MySQL multi-master replication is an excellent feature within MySQL. However, there is only one problem; standard multi-master replication seems to never be as stable as something like master-slave replication. It is always in need of attention. That is where Percona comes into play. The Percona team has developed an amazing product dubbed Percona XtraDB cluster. XtraDB features world class multi-master replication powered by Galera. So, what are we waiting for? Let’s get started.

Prerequisites
A Linux distro of your choice. In this guide, we will be using Debian 7. You can use a different distro if you would like. (Note that you may need to adapt this guide to work with the distro of your choice)
Two nodes running the same OS. Basic knowledge of the command line and SSH.

Getting Started

SSH into your virtual machines.

VM 1:
ssh root@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
VM 2:
ssh root@yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy

Add Percona’s repositories.
On both nodes, execute the following command:

echo -e "deb http://repo.percona.com/apt wheezy main\ndeb-src http://repo.percona.com/apt wheezy main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/percona.list && apt-key adv --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 1C4CBDCDCD2EFD2A

Now we need to update the sources:

apt-get update

Install Percona-XtraDB Cluster

The installation is straightforward: Continue reading “Setup Percona on Debian 7” »
