Replication and Binary Log Status Variables

The terms master and slave have historically been used in replication, and MariaDB has begun the process of adding primary and replica synonyms. The old terms will continue to be used to maintain backward compatibility - see MDEV-18777 to follow progress on this effort.

The following status variables are useful in binary logging and replication. See Server Status Variables for a complete list of status variables that can be viewed with SHOW STATUS.

See also the Full list of MariaDB options, system and status variables.

Binlog_bytes_written

  • Description: The number of bytes written to the binary log.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Binlog_cache_disk_use

  • Description: Number of transactions which used a temporary disk cache because they could not fit in the regular binary log cache, being larger than binlog_cache_size. The global value can be flushed by FLUSH STATUS.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Binlog_cache_use

  • Description: Number of transaction which used the regular binary log cache, being smaller than binlog_cache_size. The global value can be flushed by FLUSH STATUS.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Binlog_commits

  • Description: Total number of transactions committed to the binary log.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Binlog_group_commit_trigger_count


Binlog_group_commit_trigger_lock_wait

  • Description: Total number of group commits triggered because a binary log commit was being delayed because of a lock wait where the lock was held by a prior binary log commit. When this happens the later binary log commit is placed in the next group commit. See Group commit for the binary log.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Binlog_group_commit_trigger_timeout


Binlog_group_commits


Binlog_gtid_index_hit

  • Description: Incremented for each successful lookup in a GTID index.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric
  • Introduced: MariaDB 11.4

Binlog_gtid_index_miss

  • Description: Incremented when a GTID index lookup is not possible, which indicates that the index file is missing (eg. binlog written by old server version without GTID index support), or corrupt.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric
  • Introduced: MariaDB 11.4

Binlog_snapshot_file


Binlog_snapshot_position


Binlog_stmt_cache_disk_use

  • Description: Number of non-transaction statements which used a temporary disk cache because they could not fit in the regular binary log cache, being larger than binlog_stmt_cache_size. The global value can be flushed by FLUSH STATUS.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Binlog_stmt_cache_use


Com_change_master

  • Scope: Global, Session
  • Data Type: numeric

Com_show_binlog_status

  • Data Type: numeric

Com_slave_start


Com_slave_stop


Com_start_all_slaves

  • Description: Number of START ALL SLAVES commands executed.
  • Scope: Global, Session
  • Data Type: numeric

Com_start_slave

  • Description: Number of START SLAVE commands executed. Replaces the old Com_slave_start.
  • Scope: Global, Session
  • Data Type: numeric

Com_stop_all_slaves

  • Description: Number of STOP ALL SLAVES commands executed.
  • Scope: Global, Session
  • Data Type: numeric

Com_stop_slave

  • Description: Number of STOP SLAVE commands executed. Replaces the old Com_slave_stop.
  • Scope: Global, Session
  • Data Type: numeric

Master_gtid_wait_count

  • Description: Number of times MASTER_GTID_WAIT called.
  • Scope: Global, Session
  • Data Type: numeric

Master_gtid_wait_time

  • Description: Total number of time spent in MASTER_GTID_WAIT.
  • Scope: Global, Session
  • Data Type: numeric

Master_gtid_wait_timeouts

  • Description: Number of timeouts occurring in MASTER_GTID_WAIT.
  • Scope: Global, Session
  • Data Type: numeric

Rpl_status

  • Description: For showing the status of fail-safe replication. Removed in MySQL 5.6, still present in MariaDB 10.0.

Rpl_transactions_multi_engine

  • Description: Number of replicated transactions that involved changes in multiple (transactional) storage engines, before considering the update of mysql.gtid_slave_pos. These are transactions that were already cross-engine, independent of the GTID position update introduced by replication. The global value can be flushed by FLUSH STATUS.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric
  • Introduced: MariaDB 10.3.1

Slave_connections

  • Description: Number of REGISTER_SLAVE attempts. In practice the number of times slaves has tried to connect to the master.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Slave_heartbeat_period

  • Description: Time in seconds that a heartbeat packet is requested from the master by a slave.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Slave_open_temp_tables

  • Description: Number of temporary tables the slave has open.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Slave_received_heartbeats

  • Description: Number of heartbeats the slave has received from the master.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Slave_retried_transactions

  • Description: Number of times the slave has retried transactions since the server started. The global value can be flushed by FLUSH STATUS.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Slave_running

  • Description: Whether the default connection slave is running (both I/O and SQL threads are running) or not.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Slave_skipped_errors

  • Description: The number of times a slave has skipped errors defined by slave-skip-errors.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Slaves_connected

  • Description: Number of slaves connected.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Slaves_running

  • Description: Number of slave SQL threads running.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric

Transactions_gtid_foreign_engine

  • Description: Number of replicated transactions where the update of the gtid_slave_pos table had to choose a storage engine that did not otherwise participate in the transaction. This can indicate that setting gtid_pos_auto_engines might be useful. The global value can be flushed by FLUSH STATUS.
  • Scope: Global
  • Data Type: numeric
  • Introduced: MariaDB 10.3.1
