mysql_gr_routing_check

MySQL Group Replication Routing/Heath Check script

This script can be used with HA Proxy for example.

You need to call it via xinetd, this is an example::

# default: on
# description: check to see if the node is a viable routing candidate
service mysql_gr_routing_check_write
{
    disable = no
    flags = REUSE
    socket_type = stream
    port = 6446
    wait = no
    user = mysql
    server = /usr/local/bin/mysql_gr_routing_check.sh
    server_args = 100 write
    log_on_failure += USERID
    only_from = localhost 192.168.90.0/24
    per_source = UNLIMITED
}

The script can take two optional arguments:

• amount of max transactions in queue to be processed by the Group Member (trx behind), default is 100
• the role, READ or WRITE, default is WRITE

Usage example::

[root@mysql1 bin]# telnet 192.168.90.2 6446
Trying 192.168.90.2...
Connected to 192.168.90.2.
