MySQL Replication

How to Set Up Replication

For detailed instructions read the MySQL reference manual: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/replication-howto.html The following instructions are provided for your convenience. We do not provide support for configuring replication on your MySQL server.

MySQL Master Configuration

Add the following to your my.ini or my.cnf under [mysqld]. Then restart the MySQL service.

log-bin=mysql-bin
server-id=1
sync_binlog=1

MySQL Slave Configuration

Add the following to your my.ini or my.cnf under [mysqld]. Replace the bold text with the correct values. Then restart the MySQL service.

server-id=2 #each slave should have a unique id.
replicate-do-db=tcadmin2 #enter the name of the TCAdmin database
read-only #set the database read only to prevent accidental writing on the slave.
