How To Setup MySql Cluster High Availability

Hi, We are going to setup Mysql Cluster over source code compilation And first we are going to install some dependence of Mysql.

root@machine01: ~#apt-get install bison libncurses5-dev libtool g++ gcc make cmake; 

#Extracting mysql

root@machine01: ~# tar xvfz mysql-cluster-gpl-7.2.8.tar.gz -C /usr/local/src

root@machine01: ~# chown -R root.root /usr/local/src//mysql-cluster-gpl-7.2.8/

root@machine01: ~# cd /usr/local/src//mysql-cluster-gpl-7.2.8

#Configuring  Mysql Cluster 

root@machine01:/usr/local/src/mysql-cluster-gpl-7.2.8# cmake .

#Installing Mysql cluster

root@machine01:/usr/local/src/mysql-cluster-gpl-7.2.8# make clean install 

# Adding mysql user and group

root@machine01:/usr/local/src/mysql-cluster-gpl-7.2.8# groupadd mysql; useradd -g mysql mysql

root@machine01:/usr/local/src/mysql-cluster-gpl-7.2.8# cd /usr/local/mysql 

root@machine01:/usr/local/mysql# cp support-files/my-medium.cnf /etc/my.cnf
root@machine01:/usr/local/mysql# chown -R mysql . ; chgrp -R mysql .

#Dumping essential data in mysql 

root@machine01:/usr/local/mysql# ./scripts/mysql_install_db --user=mysql

root@machine01:/usr/local/mysql# chown -R root . ; chown -R mysql data

#Putting mysql executables in PATH

root@machine01:/usr/local/mysql# cd /usr/local/mysql/bin/ 

root@machine01:/usr/local/mysql/bin/#  for file in *; do rm /usr/bin/$file; ln -s /usr/local/mysql/bin/$file /usr/bin/$file; done;

#Starting Mysql..

root@machine01:/usr/local/mysql/bin/# ./mysqld_safe --user=mysql

#Securing Mysql Cluster installation 

root@machine01:/usr/local/mysql/bin/# ./mysql_secure_installation

Note : After execution above cmd do the on screen instruction set root password, 

remove anonymous user, etc. [ i have set "y" for every instruction ]   

#Now log into mysql database

root@machine02:/usr/local/mysql/bin/# mysql -uroot -p
Enter password:

Note : Installation of the management node does not require the mysqld binary.
but i have installed on machine01.

#Configuration of management node on machine01.

root@machine01:~# mkdir /var/lib/mysql-cluster
root@machine01:~# cd  /var/lib/mysql-cluster
root@machine01:/var/lib/mysql-cluster# vim config.ini

 for our setup, The config.ini file should read as follows: 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Example Ndbcluster storage engine config file.

# will be used
[tcp default]
#PortNumber= 63132


#Configuration of Data/SQL Nodes on machine02, machine02 and machine03

 For each data node and SQL node in our setup, my.cnf should look like this:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 # Example MySQL config file for medium systems.


# The following options will be passed to all MySQL clients
[client]

#Starting the MySQL Cluster

1 ) On the management host(machine01), issue the following command from the system shell to start the management node process

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

root@machine01:~# /usr/local/mysql/bin/ndb_mgmd -f /var/lib/mysql-cluster/config.ini --configdir=/var/lib/mysql-cluster --initial

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2 ) On each of the Data/SQL node hosts, run these commands to start the ndbd and mysql server process

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 root@machine02:~# /usr/local/mysql/bin/ndbd  --initial

root@machine02:~# /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server start

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#Now login into machine01 (Management Node )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

root@machine01:~#ndb_mgm

Testing the mysql Cluster Setup

####################################################################### 

On either server machine01 , machine02 and machine03 enter the following commands:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
root@machine02:~#mysql -uroot -p 
Enter password: 

mysql >  create database testdb;
mysql > use test;
mysql > CREATE TABLE cluster_test (i INT) ENGINE=NDBCLUSTER;
mysql > INSERT INTO cluster_test (i) VALUES (1);
mysql > SELECT * FROM cluster_test;
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If this works, now go to the other server and run the same SELECT and see what you will get. Insert from that host and go back to previous host and see if it works. If it works then congratulations!
