This is the User Manual for the MySQL
Cluster Manager, version 1.4.8. It documents the
MySQL Cluster Manager Agent and
MySQL Cluster Manager Client software
applications, which can be used to administer
MySQL NDB Cluster, a version of the
MySQL Database System
(referred to hereafter as “MySQL Server” or simply
“MySQL”) that incorporates the
NDB
storage engine for high
availability and data redundancy in a distributed computing
environment.
This manual does contain certain basic information about MySQL and MySQL NDB Cluster; however, it is not in any way intended as an exhaustive reference for either of these products.
Versions of MySQL NDB Cluster compatible with MySQL Cluster Manager are based on versions 7.5
and 7.6 of the NDB
storage engine;
these versions of MySQL NDB Cluster are known as “MySQL NDB Cluster 7.5,”
and “MySQL NDB Cluster 7.6”, respectively. MySQL NDB Cluster functionality
varies between MySQL NDB Cluster releases; MySQL Cluster Manager cannot supply or emulate
MySQL NDB Cluster features that are not present in the version of the MySQL NDB Cluster
software in use.
For complete information about MySQL Server and MySQL NDB Cluster, see MySQL NDB Cluster 7.5 and NDB Cluster 7.6.
MySQL Cluster Manager 1.4 supports MySQL NDB Cluster 8.0 on an experimental basis only and should not be used with MySQL NDB Cluster 8.0 in a production environment. Some examples of MySQL 8.0 features that are not supported are listed here:
The
default_auth_plugin
system variable.The
--upgrade
option for mysqld.The new
SET PERSIST
statement for persisting system variables.
