Restart MySQL cluster

You can restart all pods of the cluster. When an exception occurs in a database, you can try to restart it.

NOTE

The pod role may change after the cluster restarts.

Steps

  1. Restart a cluster.

    kubectl apply -f - <<EOF apiVersion: apps.kubeblocks.io/v1alpha1 kind: OpsRequest metadata: name: ops-restart namespace: demo spec: clusterName: mycluster type: Restart restart: - componentName: mysql EOF
  2. Check the pod and operation status to validate the restarting.

    kubectl get pod -n demo > NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE mycluster-mysql-0 4/4 Running 0 5m32s mycluster-mysql-1 3/4 Terminating 0 6m36s kubectl get ops ops-restart -n demo > NAME TYPE CLUSTER STATUS PROGRESS AGE ops-restart Restart mycluster Succeed 1/1 3m26s

    During the restarting process, there are two status types for pods.

    • STATUS=Terminating: it means the cluster restart is in progress.
    • STATUS=Running: it means the cluster has been restarted.
  1. Restart a cluster.

    Configure the values of components and ttlSecondsAfterSucceed and run the command below to restart a specified cluster.

    kbcli cluster restart mycluster -n demo --components="mysql" --ttlSecondsAfterSucceed=30
    • components describes the component name that needs to be restarted.
    • ttlSecondsAfterSucceed describes the time to live of an OpsRequest job after the restarting succeeds.
  2. Check the cluster status to validate the restarting.

    kbcli cluster list mycluster -n demo > NAME NAMESPACE CLUSTER-DEFINITION VERSION TERMINATION-POLICY STATUS CREATED-TIME mycluster demo mysql mysql-8.0.33 Delete Updating Jul 05,2024 19:01 UTC+0800
    • STATUS=Updating: it means the cluster restart is in progress.
    • STATUS=Running: it means the cluster has been restarted.
