CAVEAT
Active development for MySQL Database Server version 5.1 has ended as
of December 31, 2013. MySQL 5.1 is covered under Oracle Sustaining Sup-
port per https://www.mysql.com/support/eol-notice.html. Therefore this
version of MySQL is now Obsolete and will be removed from a future
release of Solaris. Please consider upgrading to a newer version, MySQL
5.5 or 5.6.
DTrace SUPPORT for MySQL SERVER
MySQL 5.1 provides for the DTrace support at the time of the mysql
server startup. MySQL server registers the probes for the provider
mysql.
Probes that are used at the time of creating and closing of client con-
nection are
probe connection-start();
probe connection-done();
Probes that fire at the start/end of any client command processing
(including SQL queries)
probe command-start();
probe command-done();
Probes that fire at the start/end of any SQL query processing.
probe query-start();
probe query-done();
Probes that fire at the start/end of SQL query parsing
probe query-parse-start();
probe query-parse-done();
Probes that track whether the query hits the query cache or not
probe query-cache-hit();
probe query-cache-miss();
Probes that fire when the actual query exectuion start,ie after parsing
and checking the query cache, but before privilege checks,optimizing
etc.
probe query-exec-start();
probe query-exec-done();
Probes that are used to perform to write operations towards any handler
are as listed below
probe insert-row-start();
probe insert-row-done();
probe update-row-start();
probe update-row-done();
probe delete-row-start();
probe delete-row-done();
probe is activated when calling external_lock for any handler depending
on the lock type being acquired or released
probe handler-rdlock-start();
probe handler-rdlock-done();
probe handler-wlock-start();
probe handler-wrlock-done();
probe handler-unlock-start();
probe handler-unlock-done();
probes are activated when a filesort activity happens in a query
probe filesort-start();
probe filesort-end();
The query types SELECT, INSERT, INSERT AS SELECT, UPDATE, UPDATE with
multiple tables, DELETE, DELETE with multiple tables are all probed.
The start probe always contains the query text
probe select-start(char *query);
probe select-done();
probe insert-start(char *query);
probe insert-end();
probe insert-select-start(char *query);
probe insert-select-done();
probe update-start(char *query);
probe update-done();
probe multi-update-start(char *query);
probe multi-update-done();
probe delete-start(char *query);
probe delete-done();
probe multi-delete-start(char *query);
probe multi-delete-done();
These probes are used to measure the time waiting for network traffic
or identify network-related problems
probe net-read-start();
probe net-read-done();
probe net-write-start();
probe net-write-done();
AUTOMATIC SERVICE MANAGEMENT (SMF)
MySQL 5.1 for Solaris includes files necessary to register with the
service management facility described in smf(5).
After installation of the database/mysql-51 package, register the MySQL
service as under:
example%svccfg import
/lib/svc/manifest/application/database/mysql_51.xml
The mysql:version_51 service is disabled by default. You can check the
status of the service by issuing the following command :
example% svcs mysql
STATE STIME FMRI
disabled 14:27:09 svc:/application/database/mysql:version_51
Enable the mysql:version_51 service by issuing the following command :
example%svcadm enable mysql:version_51
The state of the service instance should change to "online", and the
database server should be started :
example% svcs mysql
STATE STIME FMRI
online 14:30:08 svc:/application/database/mysql:version_51
The 32-bit MySQL daemon runs by default. To start the 64-bit server,
execute the following commands:
%svccfg
svc>select mysql:version_51
svc:/application/database/mysql:version_51>listprop mysql/enable_64bit
mysql/enable_64bit boolean false
svc:/application/database/mysql:version_51>setprop
mysql/enable_64bit=true
svc:/application/database/mysql:version_51>listprop mysql/enable_64bit
mysql/enable_64bit boolean true
svc:/application/database/mysql:version_51>quit
%svcadm refresh mysql:version_51
%svcadm enable mysql:version_51
The 64-bit server is initiated.
STATE STIME FMRI
online 15.10:08 svc:/application/database/mysql:version_51
Note -
By default, the mysql/enable_64bit property is set to False. Set it
True to start the 64-bit server.
To shutdown the database instance and prevent automatic restart (for
example during scheduled downtime for maintenance), disable the SMF
service by running:
example% svcadm disable mysql:version_51
example% svcs mysql
STATE STIME FMRI
disabled 14:30:08 svc:/application/database/mysql:version_51
