MySQL 5.7 Release Notes
SET sql_log_bin = {OFF|ON}
The sql_log_bin variable
controls whether logging to the binary log is enabled for the
current session (assuming that the binary log itself is
enabled). The default value is ON. To disable
or enable binary logging for the current session, set the
session sql_log_bin variable to
OFF or ON.
Set this variable to OFF for a session to
temporarily disable binary logging while making changes to the
source you do not want replicated to the replica.
Setting the session value of this system variable is a restricted operation. The session user must have privileges sufficient to set restricted session variables. See Section 5.1.8.1, “System Variable Privileges”.
It is not possible to set the session value of
sql_log_bin within a
transaction or subquery.
Setting this variable to OFF
prevents GTIDs from being assigned to transactions in the binary
log. If you are using GTIDs for replication, this
means that even when binary logging is later enabled again, the
GTIDs written into the log from this point do not account for
any transactions that occurred in the meantime, so in effect
those transactions are lost.
The global sql_log_bin variable
is read only and cannot be modified. The global scope is
deprecated; expect it to be removed in a future MySQL release.
