The Ultimate Guide to High Availability with MariaDB

rollback to 5.5 with WHM

Hi all,

I installed MariaDB 10 on my new server and saw different performance to what I expected, higher CPU usage and slower query times than mysql 5.1. I had mariaDB 5.5 running before I reprovisioned this server on my first iteration of this server move for UAT.

However I need to now keep this data intact and move back to 5.5. I have managed to rollback to mySQL 5.5 however when I go back through the steps of installing mariadb at http://blog.cpanel.net/mysql-mariadb/ Even though I chose the 5.5. repo, the system still looks to install v10 and its dependencies. II am on CentOS and not sure how I go about getting 5.5 installed as would be my current preference.

Any advice?

Cheers Dan

do a mysqldump from 10.0 and use this to restore into 5.5.

You may need to do yum downgrade to get the right version after updating your /etc/yum.repos.d/MariaDB.repo
