MySQL 5.6 Reference Manual Including MySQL NDB Cluster 7.3-7.4 Reference Guide
To set up the replica to communicate with the source for replication, you must tell the replica the necessary connection information. To do this, execute the following statement on the replica, replacing the option values with the actual values relevant to your system:
mysql>CHANGE MASTER TO
->MASTER_HOST='
->source_host_name
',MASTER_USER='
->replication_user_name
',MASTER_PASSWORD='
->replication_password
',MASTER_LOG_FILE='
->recorded_log_file_name
',MASTER_LOG_POS=
recorded_log_position
;
Replication cannot use Unix socket files. You must be able to connect to the replication source server using TCP/IP.
The CHANGE MASTER TO
statement
has other options as well. For example, it is possible to set up
secure replication using SSL. For a full list of options, and
information about the maximum permissible length for the
string-valued options, see Section 13.4.2.1, “CHANGE MASTER TO Statement”.
