2 likes4,521 views
The document presents an overview of group replication in MySQL 8.0, detailing its architecture, modes, and monitoring features essential for high availability and fault tolerance. It explains group replication services, including failure detection and recovery management, while highlighting the communication protocols and conditions for utilizing online UDFs. Additionally, the document covers primary member change scenarios and the election algorithm used for primary selection within the group.

- 3. Agenda ● Group Replication - Introduction ● Group Replication - Architecture ● Group Replication - Monitoring ● Group Replication - Modes ● Primary Member Change - Cases ● Primary Election Algorithm ● Conditions for using online UDF ● Communication Protocol ● Transaction Consistency
- 4. Group Replication - Introduction ● High Availability Solution ● To create a fault tolerant System. ● Supports Server side failover. ● Client side failover is not supported by GR. ● Distributed functionality. ● Based on the GCS protocol and paxos algorithm. ● Split brain issue is avoided by Quorum.
- 5. Group Replication - Introduction Services of Group Replication:- ● Group Membership (VIEW) ● Failure Detection (Detect the failure & update the VIEW) ● Fault-tolerance ( QUORUM condition n = 2 x f + 1. ) ● Monitoring ( performance schema tables ) All these Services are built into the GCS Protocol.
- 6. Group Replication - Architecture
- 7. Group Replication - Architecture Functionality of Each Component:- ● Capture :Keep track of all the local transactions. ● Applier :Remote transactions. ● Recovery :Manage the distributed recovery. ● Replication :Define the replication protocol & handle the conflict detection in the group. ● GCS & Xcom :GR Services & communication protocol.
- 8. Group Replication - ( Commit )
- 9. Group Replication - Monitoring Tables in Perf schema:- ● replication_group_member_stats ( info about certification process) ● replication_group_members ( info about the group members ) ● replication_connection_status ( info about the queue ) ● replication_applier_status ( shows state of replication worker thread ) Replication Channel:- ● group_replication_recovery - ( Channel for the recovery process) ● group_replication_applier - ( transactions from the other members or from the group )
- 10. Group Replication - Monitoring Group Replication Server States:- ● Online :will accept the connection from the client. ● Recovering :Applying the events from the donor. ● Offline :Member doesn’t belong to any group. ● ERROR :Member is in the group but not working properly. “group_replication_exit_state_action” ● UNREACHABLE :It is mostly because of the network failure.
- 11. Group Replication - Modes ● Based on the variable - (group_replication_single_primary_mode) ● Single Primary Mode ○ One member accept the writes. ○ group_replication_enforce_update_everywhere_checks (off) ● Multi Primary Mode ○ All the members can accept the writes. ○ group_replication_enforce_update_everywhere_checks (ON)
- 12. Group Replication - Modes ● From MySQL version 8.0.13 we can change the modes in online Using the UDF’s ○ group_replication_switch_to_single_primary_mode() ○ group_replication_switch_to_multi_primary_mode() ● From Version 8.0.13 to 8.0.16, no check for the safeguard. ● From Version 8.0.17, GR has safeguard check. ○ (i.e) Lower MySQL version member will become the Primary.
- 13. Primary Member Change - Cases ● Primary leaves the group . ● While Changing the primary member manually using UDF. ● While Changing the multi primary to single primary.
- 14. Primary Election Algorithm First Election Check:- ● Ordering based on MySQL major Version & patch Version. Second Election Check:- ● Based on lowest member weight. ( group_replication_member_weight ). Third Election Check:- ● Based on the lowest server UUID.
- 15. Conditions for using online UDF 1. All members must be in ONLINE state 2. No members can join in the group during a configuration change. 3. Only one configuration at once. 4. All members must be running MySQL 8.0.13 or higher
- 16. Communication Protocol ● From MySQL 8.0.16, Configure different versions of MySQL members. ● Group must use same communication protocol Version. Reason:- ● From MySQL 5.7.14, allow compression of messages ● From MySQL 8.0.16, allow fragmentation of messages Functions:- ● group_replication_get_communication_protocol(); ● group_replication_set_communication_protocol(“version”);
- 17. Transaction Consistency. ● Controlled by group_replication_consistency variable. ○ EVENTUAL ○ BEFORE_ON_PRIMARY_FAILOVER ○ BEFORE ( RO trx wait for preceding trx to apply ) ○ AFTER ( RW trx wait for preceding trx to apply in other members ) ○ BEFORE_AND_AFTER
