NAME
mk-heartbeat - Monitor MySQL replication delay.SYNOPSIS
mk-heartbeat -D test --update -h master-server mk-heartbeat -D test --monitor -h slave-server mk-heartbeat -D test --monitor -h slave-server --dbidriver Pg
DESCRIPTION
mk-heartbeat is a two-part MySQL and PostgreSQL replication delay monitoring system that doesn't require the slave to be working (in other words, it doesn't rely on "SHOW SLAVE STATUS" on MySQL). The first part updates a timestamp every second on the master. You must create a table on the master as follows:CREATE TABLE heartbeat ( id int NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, ts datetime NOT NULL ); INSERT INTO heartbeat(id) VALUES(1);
The "MEMORY" storage engine is suggested, but not required of course, for MySQL.
Now you connect mk-heartbeat to the master and run it in ``--update'' mode to generate the heartbeat. This completes the first part.
The second part is to monitor the slave's delay with ``--monitor'' or ``--check''. This works even on daisy-chained slaves to any depth.
mk-heartbeat has a one-second resolution. It depends on the clocks on the master and slave servers being closely synchronized via NTP. ``--update'' checks happen on the edge of the second, and ``--monitor'' checks happen halfway between seconds. As long as the servers' clocks aren't skewed much and the replication events are propagating in less than half a second, mk-heartbeat will report zero seconds of delay.
mk-heartbeat will try to reconnect if the connection has an error, but will not retry if it can't get a connection when it first starts.
The ``--dbidriver'' option lets you use mk-heartbeat to monitor PostgreSQL as well. It is reported to work well with Slony-1 replication.
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
Specify at least one of --stop, --update, --monitor, or --check.--update, --monitor, and --check are mutually exclusive.
--daemonize and --check are mutually exclusive.
- --askpass
- Prompt for a password when connecting to MySQL.
- --charset
- short form: -A; type: string
Default character set.
Enables character set settings in Perl and MySQL. If the value is "utf8", sets Perl's binmode on STDOUT to utf8, passes the "mysql_enable_utf8" option to DBD::mysql, and runs "SET NAMES UTF8" after connecting to MySQL. Any other value sets binmode on STDOUT without the utf8 layer, and runs "SET NAMES" after connecting to MySQL.
- --check
- Check slave delay once and exit.
- --daemonize
- Fork to the background and detach from the shell. POSIX only.
- --database
- short form: -D; type: string
The database to use for the connection.
- --dbidriver
- default: mysql; type: string
Specify a driver for the connection; "mysql" and "Pg" are supported.
- --defaults-file
- short form: -F; type: string
Only read mysql options from the given file. You must give an absolute pathname.
- --file
- type: string
Print latest --monitor output to this file.
When ``--monitor'' is given, prints output to the specified file instead of to STDOUT. The file is opened, truncated, and closed every interval, so it will only contain the most recent statistics. Useful when ``--daemonize'' is given.
- --frames
- type: string; default: 1m,5m,15m
Timeframes for averages.
Specifies the timeframes over which to calculate moving averages when ``--monitor'' is given. Specify as a comma-separated list of numbers with suffixes. The suffix can be s for seconds, m for minutes, h for hours, or d for days. The size of the largest frame determines the maximum memory usage, as up to the specified number of per-second samples are kept in memory to calculate the averages. You can specify as many timeframes as you like.
- --host
- short form: -h; type: string
Connect to host.
- --interval
- short form: -i; type: time; default: 1s
Interval between updates and checks.
How often to check or update values. The updates and checks will happen when the Unix time (seconds since epoch) is an even multiple of this value. The suffix is similar to ``--frames''.
- --monitor
- Monitor slave delay continuously.
Specifies that mk-heartbeat should check the slave's delay every second and report to STDOUT (or if ``--file'' is given, to the file instead). The output is the current delay followed by moving averages over the timeframe given in ``--frames''. For example,
5s [ 0.25s, 0.05s, 0.02s ]
- --password
- short form: -p; type: string
Password to use when connecting.
- --pid
- type: string
Create the given PID file when daemonized.
For example, '--daemonize --pid /tmp/mk-heartbeat.pid' would cause mk-heartbeat to create the PID file /tmp/mk-heartbeat.pid.
/var/run/ is usually not writable by non-root users, therefore /tmp/ is a more reliable alternative.
The PID file is removed when the daemonized instance of mk-heartbeat exits.
- --port
- short form: -P; type: int
Port number to use for connection.
- --quiet
- short form: -q
Suppresses normal output.
- --recurse
- type: int
Check slaves recursively to this depth in ``--check'' mode.
Try to discover slave servers recursively, to the specified depth. After discovering servers, run the check on each one of them and print the hostname (if possible), followed by the slave delay.
This currently works only with MySQL. It uses "SHOW PROCESSLIST" to discover slaves; if that returns nothing, it falls back to examining the output of "SHOW SLAVE HOSTS" to try to find slaves.
- --replace
- short form: -r
Use "REPLACE" instead of "UPDATE" for --update.
When running in ``--update'' mode, use "REPLACE" instead of "UPDATE" to set the heartbeat table's timestamp. The "REPLACE" statement is a MySQL extension to SQL. This option is useful when you don't know whether the table contains any rows or not.
- --sentinel
- type: string; default: /tmp/mk-heartbeat-sentinel
Exit if this file exists.
- --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.
- --skew
- short form: -k; type: int; default: 500000
How long to delay checks, in milliseconds.
The default is to delay checks one half second. Since the update happens as soon as possible after the beginning of the second on the master, this allows one half second of replication delay before reporting that the slave lags the master by one second. If your clocks are not completely accurate or there is some other reason you'd like to delay the slave more or less, you can tweak this value. Try setting the "MKDEBUG" environment variable to see the effect this has.
- --socket
- short form: -S; type: string
Socket file to use for connection.
- --stop
- Stop running instances by creating the sentinel file.
This should have the effect of stopping all running instances which are watching the same sentinel file. If none of ``--update'', ``--monitor'' or ``--check'' is specified, "mk-heartbeat" will exit after creating the file. If one of these is specified, "mk-heartbeat" will wait the interval given by ``--interval'', then remove the file and continue working.
You might find this handy to stop cron jobs gracefully if necessary, or to replace one running instance with another. For example, if you want to stop and restart "mk-heartbeat" every hour (just to make sure that it is restarted every hour, in case of a server crash or some other problem), you could use a "crontab" line like this:
0 * * * * mk-heartbeat --update -D test --stop --sentinel /tmp/mk-heartbeatup
The non-default ``--sentinel'' will make sure the hourly "cron" job stops only instances previously started with the same options (that is, from the same "cron" job).
See also ``--sentinel''.
- --table
- short form: -t; type: string; default: heartbeat
The table to use for the heartbeat.
Don't specify database.table; use ``--database'' to specify the database.
- --time
- short form: -m; type: time
Time to run before exiting.
- --update
- Update a master's heartbeat.
- --user
- short form: -u; type: string
User for login if not current user.
