NAME

mk-audit - Analyze, summarize and report on MySQL config, schema and operation

SYNOPSIS

    mk-audit
    mk-audit --user root --askpass
 
 

DESCRIPTION

mk-audit summarizes the information a consultant may find useful when analyzing a MySQL server. It prints out a report that contains the following information:

OPERATING SYSTEM

The operating system report shows information about the operating system and hardware. The information includes the operating system version and flavor, and information on CPU, memory and disks as well as some core system libraries.

This is currently very specific to GNU/Linux.

MYSQL

For each MySQL instance detected on the system, mk-audit reports some information on the server and the data in it.

DOWNLOADING

You can download Maatkit from Google Code at <http://code.google.com/p/maatkit/>, or you can get any of the tools easily with a command like the following:

    wget http://www.maatkit.org/get/toolname
    or
    wget http://www.maatkit.org/trunk/toolname
 
 

Where "toolname" can be replaced with the name (or fragment of a name) of any of the Maatkit tools. Once downloaded, they're ready to run; no installation is needed. The first URL gets the latest released version of the tool, and the second gets the latest trunk code from Subversion.

OPTIONS

--askpass

Prompt for a password when connecting to MySQL.

--password

short form: -p; type: string

Password to use when connecting.

--setvars

type: string; default: wait_timeout=10000

Set these MySQL variables.

Specify any variables you want to be set immediately after connecting to MySQL. These will be included in a "SET" command.

--top

short form: -t; type: int; default: 5

Show top N largest databases and tables.

--user

short form: -u; type: string

User for login if not current user.

--socket

short form: -S; type: string

Socket file to use for connection.

If this is given, mk-audit will attempt to connect via a Unix socket, not through TCP/IP.

ENVIRONMENT

The environment variable "MKDEBUG" enables verbose debugging output in all of the Maatkit tools:

    MKDEBUG=1 mk-....
 
 

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

You need Perl, DBI, DBD::mysql, and some core packages that ought to be installed in any reasonably new version of Perl.

BUGS

Please use Google Code Issues and Groups to report bugs or request support: <http://code.google.com/p/maatkit/>.

Please include the complete command-line used to reproduce the problem you are seeing, the version of all MySQL servers involved, the complete output of the tool when run with ``--version'', and if possible, debugging output produced by running with the "MKDEBUG=1" environment variable.
