Working with native MySQL replication

Using the plug-in in a native environment: an overview

When you are using replication, all updates to the tables that are replicated should be performed on the master server. Otherwise, you must avoid conflicts between updates that users make to tables on the master and updates that they make to tables on the slave.

Replication offers benefits for robustness, speed, and system administration:

Plug‑in for MySQL supports backup and recovery of single-master replication environments.

Enabling replication support

Replication support is enabled using the Configure dialog box. For information about accessing this dialog box, see Configuring the plug-in.

Enable MySQL Replication: If native MySQL Replication is enabled for this instance, select this check box.
Slave Instance: If the instance is configured as a Slave, select this option.
Master Instance: If the instance is configured as a Master, select this option.
Enable Point-In-Time Recovery: If you want to enable PIT backups and restores, select this check box.
Binary Log Index Path: If you selected the Enable Point in Time Recovery check box, use this field to specify the complete path to the Binary Log Index file.
Relay Log Index Path: If you are configuring a Slave Instance, enter the complete path to the Relay Log Index file to include it in backups.
