Changes in MySQL Shell 8.1.1 (2023-07-26, Innovation Release)

Utilities Added or Changed Functionality
  • MySQL Shell dump and load utilities now support the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage Dedicated Endpoints format for Pre-Authenticated Request (PAR) URLs:

    namespace.objectstorage.region.oci.customer-oci.com/.../

    For more information, see OCI Object Storage Dedicated Endpoints.

    MySQL Shell continues to support the legacy PAR URL format:

    objectstorage.region.oraclecloud.com/.../

    (Bug #35548572)

Utilities Bugs Fixed
  • As of MySQL Server 8.1.0, MySQL HeatWave Service contains a schema named mysql_audit. As a result, the dump and load utilities encountered a duplicate object error when copying data from one DB System to another.

    As of this release, with the ocimds option enabled, dumpInstance() automatically excludes the mysql_audit schema. (Bug #35550282)

  • If an AWS HEAD request failed with an authorization error, it was not retried. As of this release if such a request fails with a 400 HTTP error, it is retried.

    Additionally, if the refresh process for AWS credentials has a defined expiration time, the refresh process is triggered 5 minutes before the required time. (Bug #35468541)

Bugs Fixed
  • Errors generated by stored procedures were not returned over classic MySQL protocol connections. (Bug #35549008)
