7.6.5.2 ddl_rewriter Plugin Options

This section describes the command options that control operation of the ddl_rewriter plugin. If values specified at startup time are incorrect, the ddl_rewriter plugin may fail to initialize properly and the server does not load it.

To control activation of the ddl_rewriter plugin, use this option:

• --ddl-rewriter[=value]

  Command-Line Format	--ddl-rewriter[=value]
  Introduced	8.0.16
  Type	Enumeration
  Default Value	ON
  Valid Values	ON OFF FORCE FORCE_PLUS_PERMANENT

  This option controls how the server loads the ddl_rewriter plugin at startup. It is available only if the plugin has been previously registered with INSTALL PLUGIN or is loaded with --plugin-load or --plugin-load-add. See Section 7.6.5.1, “Installing or Uninstalling ddl_rewriter”.

  The option value should be one of those available for plugin-loading options, as described in Section 7.6.1, “Installing and Uninstalling Plugins”. For example, --ddl-rewriter=OFF disables the plugin at server startup.
