Cool new features in FromDual Backup and Recovery Manager 2.0.0
A while ago we released our FromDual Backup and Recovery Manager (brman) 2.0.0 for MariaDB and MySQL. So what are the new cool features of this new release?
First of all brman 2.0.0 is compatible with MariaDB 10.3 and MySQL 8.0:

On a customer request we have added the option --pass-through to pass additional specific options through to the final back-end application (mysqldump, mariabackup, xtrabackup, mysqlbackup):
As an example the customer wanted to pass through the option --ignore-table to mysqldump:
shell> bman --target=brman:secret@127.0.0.1:3318 --type=schema --mode=logical --policy=daily --schema=+world --pass-through="--ignore-table=world.CountryLanguage" ...

So we added the option --no-purge to not purge binary logs during binlog backup. It looked like this before:
shell> bman --target=brman:secret@127.0.0.1:3326 --type=binlog --policy=binlog ...

This is done automatically and you cannot influence this behaviour.
/home/mysql/product/mariadb-10.3/bin/mysqldump --user=brman --host=127.0.0.1 --port=3318 --quick --single-transaction --flush-logs --triggers --routines --hex-blob --eventsSome of our customers use brman in combination with MyEnv and they want to have an overview of used software. So we made the version output of brman MyEnv compliant:
mysql@chef:~ [mariadb-103, 3318]> V The following FromDual Toolbox Packages are installed: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MyEnv: 2.0.0 BRman: 2.0.0 OpsCenter: 0.4.0 Fpmmm: 1.0.1 Nagios plug-ins: 1.0.1 O/S: Linux / Ubuntu Binaries: mysql-5.7 mysql-8.0 mariadb-10.2 mariadb-10.3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mysql@chef:~ [mariadb-103, 3318]>In MySQL 5.7 general tablespaces were introduced. The utility mysqldump is not aware of general tablespaces and does not dump this information. This leads to errors during restore. FromDual brman checks for general tablespaces and writes them to the backup log so you can later extract this information at least from there. We consider this as a bug in mysqldump. MariaDB up to 10.3 has not implemented this feature yet so it is not affected of this problem.
... Start backup at 2018-08-13_12-25-46 WARNING: 5 general tablespaces found! mysqldump does NOT dump tablespace creation statements.

So backup should be done with its own user. FromDual suggest brman as a username and the utility complains with a warning if root is used:
shell> bman --target=root@127.0.0.1:3318 --type=full --policy=daily ... Start backup at 2018-08-13_12-30-29 WARNING: You should NOT use the root user for backup. Please create another user as follows: CREATE USER 'brman'@'127.0.0.1' IDENTIFIED BY 'S3cret123'; GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'brman'@'127.0.0.1'; If you want to be more restrictive you can grant privileges as follows: GRANT SELECT, LOCK TABLES, RELOAD, PROCESS, TRIGGER, SUPER, REPLICATION CLIENT, SHOW VIEW, EVENT ON *.* TO 'brman'@'127.0.0.1'; Additionally for MySQL Enterprise Backup (MEB): GRANT CREATE, INSERT, DROP, UPDATE ON mysql.backup_progress TO 'brman'@'127.0.0.1'; GRANT CREATE, INSERT, SELECT, DROP, UPDATE ON mysql.backup_history TO 'brman'@'127.0.0.1'; GRANT FILE ON *.* TO 'brman'@'127.0.0.1'; GRANT CREATE, INSERT, DROP, UPDATE ON mysql.backup_sbt_history TO 'brman'@'127.0.0.1'; Additionally for MariaBackup / XtraBackup: GRANT INSERT, SELECT ON PERCONA_SCHEMA.xtrabackup_history TO 'brman'@'127.0.0.1'; ...Some customers have implemented a monitoring solution. FromDual brman can report backup return code, backup run time and backup size to the FromDual Performance Monitor for MariaDB and MySQL (fpmmm/Zabbix) now:
shell> bman --target=brman:secret@127.0.0.1:3318 --type=full --policy=daily --fpmmm-hostname=mariadb-103 --fpmmm-cache-file=/var/cache/fpmmm/fpmmm.FromDual.mariadb-103.cache ... shell> cat /var/cache/fpmmm/fpmmm.FromDual.mariadb-103.cache mariadb-103 FromDual.MySQL.backup.full_logical_rc 1534156619 "0" mariadb-103 FromDual.MySQL.backup.full_logical_duration 1534156619 "129" mariadb-103 FromDual.MySQL.backup.full_logical_size 1534156619 "7324744568"Some customers run their databases on shared hosting systems or in cloud solutions where they do not have all the needed database privileges. For those users FromDual brman is much less intrusive now and allows backups on those restricted systems as well:
# # /home/shinguz/etc/brman.conf # policy = daily target = shinguz_brman:secret@localhost type = schema per-schema = on schema = -shinguz_shinguz log = /home/shinguz/log/bman_backup.log backupdir = /home/shinguz/bck shell> /home/shinguz/brman/bin/bman --config=/home/shinguz/etc/brman.conf 1>/dev/null ... WARNING: Binary logging is enabled but you are lacking REPLICATION CLIENT privilege. I cannot get Master Log File and Pos! WARNING: I cannot check for GENERAL tablespaces. I lack the PROCESS privilege. This backup might not restore in case of presence of GENERAL tablespaces. ...Details: Check for binary logging is made less intrusive. If RELOAD privilege is missing --master-data and/or --flush-logs options are omitted. Schema backup does not require SHOW DATABASES privilege any more.
Some customers want to push theire backups directly to an other server during backup (not pull from somewhere else). For those customers the new option --archivedestination was introduced which replaces the less powerfull option --archivedir which is deprecated. So archiving with rsync, scp and sftp is possible now (NFS mounts was possible before already):

So we added the option --no-purge to not purge binary logs during binlog backup. It looked like this before:
shell> bman --target=brman:secret@127.0.0.1:3326 --type=binlog --policy=binlog ...

So we made the version output of brman MyEnv compliant:

The utility mysqldump is not aware of general tablespaces and does not dump this information. This leads to errors during restore. FromDual brman checks for general tablespaces and writes them to the backup log so you can later extract this information at least from there. We consider this as a bug in mysqldump. MariaDB up to 10.3 has not implemented this feature yet so it is not affected of this problem.

So backup should be done with its own user. FromDual suggest brman as a username and the utility complains with a warning if root is used:

For those users FromDual brman is much less intrusive now and allows backups on those restricted systems as well:

Some customers want to push theire backups directly to an other server during backup (not pull from somewhere else). For those customers the new option --archivedestination was introduced which replaces the less powerfull option --archivedir which is deprecated. So archiving with rsync, scp and sftp is possible now (NFS mounts was possible before already):

Taxonomy upgrade extras: BackupRestoreRecoverypitrbrmanreleasefromdual_brmanSelect Hello World FromDual with MariaDB PL/SQL
MariaDB 10.3 was released GA a few weeks ago. One of the features which interests me most is the MariaDB Oracle PL/SQL compatibility mode.
So its time to try it out now...
Enabling Oracle PL/SQL in MariaDBOracle PL/SQL syntax is quite different from old MySQL/MariaDB SQL/PSM syntax. So the old MariaDB parser would through some errors without modification. The activation of the modification of the MariaDB PL/SQL parser is achieved by changing the sql_mode as follows:
mariadb> SET SESSION sql_mode=ORACLE;or you can make this setting persistent in your my.cnf MariaDB configuration file:
[mysqld] sql_mode = ORACLETo verify if the sql_mode is already set you can use the following statement:
mariadb> pager grep --color -i oracle PAGER set to 'grep --color -i oracle' mariadb> SELECT @@sql_mode; | PIPES_AS_CONCAT,ANSI_QUOTES,IGNORE_SPACE,ORACLE,NO_KEY_OPTIONS,NO_TABLE_OPTIONS,NO_FIELD_OPTIONS,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,SIMULTANEOUS_ASSIGNMENT | mariadb> nopagerNomen est omen
First of all I tried the function of the basic and fundamental table in Oracle, the DUAL table:
mariadb> SELECT * FROM dual; ERROR 1096 (HY000): No tables usedSad. :-( But this query on the dual table seems to work:
mariadb> SELECT 'Hello World!' FROM dual; +--------------+ | Hello World! | +--------------+ | Hello World! | +--------------+The second result looks much better. The first query should work as well but does not. We opened a bug at MariaDB without much hope that this bug will be fixed soon...
To get more info why MariaDB behaves like this I tried to investigate a bit more:
mariadb> SELECT table_schema, table_name FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_name = 'dual'; Empty set (0.001 sec)Hmmm. It seems to be implemented not as a real table... But normal usage of this table seems to work:
mariadb> SELECT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP() FROM dual; +---------------------+ | current_timestamp() | +---------------------+ | 2018-06-07 15:32:11 | +---------------------+If you rely heavily in your code on the dual table you can create it yourself. It is defined as follows:
"The DUAL table has one column, DUMMY, defined to be VARCHAR2(1), and contains one row with a value X."If you want to create the dual table yourself here is the statement:
mariadb> CREATE TABLE `DUAL` (DUMMY VARCHAR2(1)); mariadb> INSERT INTO `DUAL` (DUMMY) VALUES ('X');Anonymous PL/SQL block in MariaDB
To try some PL/SQL features out or to run a sequence of PL/SQL commands you can use anonymous blocks. Unfortunately MySQL SQL/PSM style delimiter seems still to be necessary.
It is recommended to use the DELIMITER /, then most of the Oracle examples will work straight out of the box...
DELIMITER / BEGIN SELECT 'Hello world from MariaDB anonymous PL/SQL block!'; END; / DELIMITER ; +--------------------------------------------------+ | Hello world from MariaDB anonymous PL/SQL block! | +--------------------------------------------------+ | Hello world from MariaDB anonymous PL/SQL block! | +--------------------------------------------------+A simple PL/SQL style MariaDB Procedure DELIMITER / CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE hello AS BEGIN DECLARE vString VARCHAR2(255) := NULL; BEGIN SELECT 'Hello world from MariaDB PL/SQL Procedure!' INTO vString FROM dual; SELECT vString; END; END hello; / BEGIN hello(); END; / DELIMITER ;
A simple PL/SQL style MariaDB Function DELIMITER / CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION hello RETURN VARCHAR2 DETERMINISTIC AS BEGIN DECLARE vString VARCHAR2(255) := NULL; BEGIN SELECT 'Hello world from MariaDB PL/SQL Function!' INTO vString FROM dual; RETURN vString; END; END hello; / DECLARE vString VARCHAR(255) := NULL; BEGIN vString := hello(); SELECT vString; END; / DELIMITER ;
An PL/SQL package in MariaDB
Up to here there is nothing really new, just slightly different. But now let us try a PL/SQL package in MariaDB:
DELIMITER / CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE hello AS -- must be delared as public! PROCEDURE helloWorldProcedure(pString VARCHAR2); FUNCTION helloWorldFunction(pString VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2; END hello; / CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY hello AS vString VARCHAR2(255) := NULL; -- was declared public in PACKAGE PROCEDURE helloWorldProcedure(pString VARCHAR2) AS BEGIN SELECT 'Hello world from MariaDB Package Procedure in ' || pString || '!' INTO vString FROM dual; SELECT vString; END; -- was declared public in PACKAGE FUNCTION helloWorldFunction(pString VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 AS BEGIN SELECT 'Hello world from MariaDB Package Function in ' || pString || '!' INTO vString FROM dual; return vString; END; BEGIN SELECT 'Package initialiser, called only once per connection!'; END hello; / DECLARE vString VARCHAR2(255) := NULL; -- CONSTANT seems to be not supported yet by MariaDB -- cString CONSTANT VARCHAR2(255) := 'anonymous block'; cString VARCHAR2(255) := 'anonymous block'; BEGIN CALL hello.helloWorldProcedure(cString); SELECT hello.helloWorldFunction(cString) INTO vString; SELECT vString; END; / DELIMITER ;DBMS_OUTPUT package for MariaDB
An Oracle database contains over 200 PL/SQL packages. One of the most common one is the DBMS_OUTPUT package. In this package we can find the Procedure PUT_LINE.
This package/function has not been implemented yet by MariaDB so far. So we have to do it ourself:
DELIMITER / CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE DBMS_OUTPUT AS PROCEDURE PUT_LINE(pString IN VARCHAR2); END DBMS_OUTPUT; / CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY DBMS_OUTPUT AS PROCEDURE PUT_LINE(pString IN VARCHAR2) AS BEGIN SELECT pString; END; END DBMS_OUTPUT; / BEGIN DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Hello world from MariaDB DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE!'); END; / DELIMITER ;The other Functions and Procedures have to be implemented later over time...
Now we can try to do all examples from Oracle sources!

mariadb> SET SESSION sql_mode=ORACLE;or you can make this setting persistent in your my.cnf MariaDB configuration file:
[mysqld] sql_mode = ORACLETo verify if the sql_mode is already set you can use the following statement:
mariadb> pager grep --color -i oracle PAGER set to 'grep --color -i oracle' mariadb> SELECT @@sql_mode; | PIPES_AS_CONCAT,ANSI_QUOTES,IGNORE_SPACE,ORACLE,NO_KEY_OPTIONS,NO_TABLE_OPTIONS,NO_FIELD_OPTIONS,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,SIMULTANEOUS_ASSIGNMENT | mariadb> nopagerNomen est omen
First of all I tried the function of the basic and fundamental table in Oracle, the DUAL table:
mariadb> SELECT * FROM dual; ERROR 1096 (HY000): No tables usedSad. :-( But this query on the dual table seems to work:
mariadb> SELECT 'Hello World!' FROM dual; +--------------+ | Hello World! | +--------------+ | Hello World! | +--------------+The second result looks much better. The first query should work as well but does not. We opened a bug at MariaDB without much hope that this bug will be fixed soon...
To get more info why MariaDB behaves like this I tried to investigate a bit more:
mariadb> SELECT table_schema, table_name FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_name = 'dual'; Empty set (0.001 sec)Hmmm. It seems to be implemented not as a real table... But normal usage of this table seems to work:
mariadb> SELECT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP() FROM dual; +---------------------+ | current_timestamp() | +---------------------+ | 2018-06-07 15:32:11 | +---------------------+If you rely heavily in your code on the dual table you can create it yourself. It is defined as follows:
"The DUAL table has one column, DUMMY, defined to be VARCHAR2(1), and contains one row with a value X."If you want to create the dual table yourself here is the statement:
mariadb> CREATE TABLE `DUAL` (DUMMY VARCHAR2(1)); mariadb> INSERT INTO `DUAL` (DUMMY) VALUES ('X');Anonymous PL/SQL block in MariaDB
To try some PL/SQL features out or to run a sequence of PL/SQL commands you can use anonymous blocks. Unfortunately MySQL SQL/PSM style delimiter seems still to be necessary.
It is recommended to use the DELIMITER /, then most of the Oracle examples will work straight out of the box...
DELIMITER / BEGIN SELECT 'Hello world from MariaDB anonymous PL/SQL block!'; END; / DELIMITER ; +--------------------------------------------------+ | Hello world from MariaDB anonymous PL/SQL block! | +--------------------------------------------------+ | Hello world from MariaDB anonymous PL/SQL block! | +--------------------------------------------------+A simple PL/SQL style MariaDB Procedure DELIMITER / CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE hello AS BEGIN DECLARE vString VARCHAR2(255) := NULL; BEGIN SELECT 'Hello world from MariaDB PL/SQL Procedure!' INTO vString FROM dual; SELECT vString; END; END hello; / BEGIN hello(); END; / DELIMITER ;
A simple PL/SQL style MariaDB Function DELIMITER / CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION hello RETURN VARCHAR2 DETERMINISTIC AS BEGIN DECLARE vString VARCHAR2(255) := NULL; BEGIN SELECT 'Hello world from MariaDB PL/SQL Function!' INTO vString FROM dual; RETURN vString; END; END hello; / DECLARE vString VARCHAR(255) := NULL; BEGIN vString := hello(); SELECT vString; END; / DELIMITER ;
An PL/SQL package in MariaDB
Up to here there is nothing really new, just slightly different. But now let us try a PL/SQL package in MariaDB:
DELIMITER / CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE hello AS -- must be delared as public! PROCEDURE helloWorldProcedure(pString VARCHAR2); FUNCTION helloWorldFunction(pString VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2; END hello; / CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY hello AS vString VARCHAR2(255) := NULL; -- was declared public in PACKAGE PROCEDURE helloWorldProcedure(pString VARCHAR2) AS BEGIN SELECT 'Hello world from MariaDB Package Procedure in ' || pString || '!' INTO vString FROM dual; SELECT vString; END; -- was declared public in PACKAGE FUNCTION helloWorldFunction(pString VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 AS BEGIN SELECT 'Hello world from MariaDB Package Function in ' || pString || '!' INTO vString FROM dual; return vString; END; BEGIN SELECT 'Package initialiser, called only once per connection!'; END hello; / DECLARE vString VARCHAR2(255) := NULL; -- CONSTANT seems to be not supported yet by MariaDB -- cString CONSTANT VARCHAR2(255) := 'anonymous block'; cString VARCHAR2(255) := 'anonymous block'; BEGIN CALL hello.helloWorldProcedure(cString); SELECT hello.helloWorldFunction(cString) INTO vString; SELECT vString; END; / DELIMITER ;DBMS_OUTPUT package for MariaDB
An Oracle database contains over 200 PL/SQL packages. One of the most common one is the DBMS_OUTPUT package. In this package we can find the Procedure PUT_LINE.
This package/function has not been implemented yet by MariaDB so far. So we have to do it ourself:
DELIMITER / CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE DBMS_OUTPUT AS PROCEDURE PUT_LINE(pString IN VARCHAR2); END DBMS_OUTPUT; / CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY DBMS_OUTPUT AS PROCEDURE PUT_LINE(pString IN VARCHAR2) AS BEGIN SELECT pString; END; END DBMS_OUTPUT; / BEGIN DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Hello world from MariaDB DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE!'); END; / DELIMITER ;The other Functions and Procedures have to be implemented later over time...
Now we can try to do all examples from Oracle sources!

Taxonomy upgrade extras: trainingmariadb trainingPerformance TuningMySQL sys Schema in MariaDB 10.2
MySQL has introduced the PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA (P_S) in MySQL 5.5 and made it really usable in MySQL 5.6 and added some enhancements in MySQL 5.7 and 8.0.
Unfortunately the PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA was not really intuitive for the broader audience. Thus Mark Leith created the sys Schema for an easier access for the normal DBA and DevOps and Daniel Fischer has enhanced it further. Fortunately the sys Schema up to version 1.5.1 is available on GitHub. So we can adapt and use it for MariaDB as well. The version of the sys Schema in MySQL 8.0 is 1.6.0 and seems not to be on GitHub yet. But you can extract it from the MySQL 8.0 directory structure: mysql-8.0/share/mysql_sys_schema.sql. According to a well informed source the project on GitHub is not dead but the developers have just been working on other priorities. An the source announced another release soon (they are working on it at the moment).
MariaDB has integrated the PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA based on MySQL 5.6 into its own MariaDB 10.2 server but unfortunately did not integrate the sys Schema. Which PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA version is integrated in MariaDB can be found here.
To install the sys Schema into MariaDB we first have to check if the PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA is activated in the MariaDB server:
mariadb> SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES LIKE 'performance_schema'; +--------------------+-------+ | Variable_name | Value | +--------------------+-------+ | performance_schema | OFF | +--------------------+-------+To enable the PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA just add the following line to your my.cnf:
[mysqld] performance_schema = 1and restart the instance.
In MariaDB 10.2 the MySQL 5.6 PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA is integrated so we have to run the sys_56.sql installation script. If you try to run the sys_57.sql script you will get a lot of errors...
But also the sys_56.sql installation script will cause you some little troubles which are easy to fix:
unzip mysql-sys-1.5.1.zip mysql -uroot < sys_56.sql ERROR 1193 (HY000) at line 20 in file: './procedures/diagnostics.sql': Unknown system variable 'server_uuid' ERROR 1193 (HY000) at line 20 in file: './procedures/diagnostics.sql': Unknown system variable 'master_info_repository' ERROR 1193 (HY000) at line 20 in file: './procedures/diagnostics.sql': Unknown system variable 'relay_log_info_repository'For a quick hack to make the sys Schema work I changed the following information:
- server_uuid to server_id
- @@master_info_repository to NULL (3 times).
- @@relay_log_info_repository to NULL (3 times).
For the future the community has to think about if the sys Schema should be aware of the 2 branches MariaDB and MySQL and act accordingly or if the sys Schema has to be forked to work properly for MariaDB and implement MariaDB specific functionality.
When the sys Schema finally is installed you have the following tables to get your performance metrics:
mariadb> use sys mariadb> SHOW TABLES; +-----------------------------------------------+ | Tables_in_sys | +-----------------------------------------------+ | host_summary | | host_summary_by_file_io | | host_summary_by_file_io_type | | host_summary_by_stages | | host_summary_by_statement_latency | | host_summary_by_statement_type | | innodb_buffer_stats_by_schema | | innodb_buffer_stats_by_table | | innodb_lock_waits | | io_by_thread_by_latency | | io_global_by_file_by_bytes | | io_global_by_file_by_latency | | io_global_by_wait_by_bytes | | io_global_by_wait_by_latency | | latest_file_io | | metrics | | processlist | | ps_check_lost_instrumentation | | schema_auto_increment_columns | | schema_index_statistics | | schema_object_overview | | schema_redundant_indexes | | schema_table_statistics | | schema_table_statistics_with_buffer | | schema_tables_with_full_table_scans | | schema_unused_indexes | | session | | statement_analysis | | statements_with_errors_or_warnings | | statements_with_full_table_scans | | statements_with_runtimes_in_95th_percentile | | statements_with_sorting | | statements_with_temp_tables | | sys_config | | user_summary | | user_summary_by_file_io | | user_summary_by_file_io_type | | user_summary_by_stages | | user_summary_by_statement_latency | | user_summary_by_statement_type | | version | | wait_classes_global_by_avg_latency | | wait_classes_global_by_latency | | waits_by_host_by_latency | | waits_by_user_by_latency | | waits_global_by_latency | +-----------------------------------------------+One query as an example: Top 10 MariaDB global I/O latency files on my system:

Taxonomy upgrade extras: trainingenterprisemysqladvancedMySQL 8.0.4-rc is out
Yesterday MySQL 8.0.4-rc came out. The Release Notes are quite long.
But caution: Do a BACKUP before upgrading...
I experienced some nice surprises. First I have to admit that I did not read the Release Notes or anything else. Reading manuals is for Girlies! Possibly something is written in there which is of importance. But I expect that it just works as usual...
I downloaded MySQL 8.0.4-rc and just want to upgrade my MySQL 8.0.3-rc testing system, where we did the 1M tables test.
First I got:
[MY-011096] No data dictionary version number found. [MY-010020] Data Dictionary initialization failed. [MY-010119] AbortingHmmm... Maybe something was not clean with the old system. So downgrade again:
[ERROR] [000000] InnoDB: Unsupported redo log format. The redo log was created with MySQL 8.0.4. Please follow the instructions at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/upgrading-downgrading.html [ERROR] [000000] InnoDB: Plugin initialization aborted with error Generic error [ERROR] [003957] Failed to initialize DD Storage Engine [ERROR] [003634] Data Dictionary initialization failed. [ERROR] [003742] AbortingOK. Understandable. I should have done a backup before. But backup is for Girlies as well! Anyway this test system is not important. So I created a new instance from scratch which finally worked... Possibly just removing the redo log files as indicated would have helped as well.
