PROGRAM:

NAME


pt-mysql-summary - Summarize MySQL information nicely.

SYNOPSIS


Usage: pt-mysql-summary [OPTIONS]

pt-mysql-summary conveniently summarizes the status and configuration of a MySQL database
server so that you can learn about it at a glance. It is not a tuning tool or diagnosis
tool. It produces a report that is easy to diff and can be pasted into emails without
losing the formatting. It should work well on any modern UNIX systems.

RISKS


Percona Toolkit is mature, proven in the real world, and well tested, but all database
tools can pose a risk to the system and the database server. Before using this tool,
please:

· Read the tool's documentation

· Review the tool's known "BUGS"

· Test the tool on a non-production server

· Backup your production server and verify the backups

DESCRIPTION


pt-mysql-summary works by connecting to a MySQL database server and querying it for status
and configuration information. It saves these bits of data into files in a temporary
directory, and then formats them neatly with awk and other scripting languages.

To use, simply execute it. Optionally add a double dash and then the same command-line
options you would use to connect to MySQL, such as the following:

pt-mysql-summary --user=root

The tool interacts minimally with the server upon which it runs. It assumes that you'll
run it on the same server you're inspecting, and therefore it assumes that it will be able
to find the my.cnf configuration file, for example. However, it should degrade gracefully
if this is not the case. Note, however, that its output does not indicate which
information comes from the MySQL database and which comes from the host operating system,
so it is possible for confusing output to be generated if you run the tool on one server
and connect to a MySQL database server running on another server.

OUTPUT


Many of the outputs from this tool are deliberately rounded to show their magnitude but
not the exact detail. This is called fuzzy-rounding. The idea is that it does not matter
whether a server is running 918 queries per second or 921 queries per second; such a small
variation is insignificant, and only makes the output hard to compare to other servers.
Fuzzy-rounding rounds in larger increments as the input grows. It begins by rounding to
the nearest 5, then the nearest 10, nearest 25, and then repeats by a factor of 10 larger
(50, 100, 250), and so on, as the input grows.

The following is a sample of the report that the tool produces:

# Percona Toolkit MySQL Summary Report #######################

# Instances ##################################################

12346 /tmp/12346/data 0 0 /tmp/12346.sock
12347 /tmp/12347/data 0 0 /tmp/12347.sock

The first two sections show which server the report was generated on and which MySQL
instances are running on the server. This is detected from the output of "ps" and does not
always detect all instances and parameters, but often works well. From this point
forward, the report will be focused on a single MySQL instance, although several instances
may appear in the above paragraph.

# Report On Port 12345 #######################################

This section is a quick summary of the MySQL instance: version, uptime, and other very
basic parameters. The Time output is generated from the MySQL server, unlike the system
date and time printed earlier, so you can see whether the database and operating system
times match.

# Processlist ################################################

This section is a summary of the output from SHOW PROCESSLIST. Each sub-section is
aggregated by a different item, which is shown as the first column heading. When
summarized by Command, every row in SHOW PROCESSLIST is included, but otherwise, rows
whose Command is Sleep are excluded from the SUM and MAX columns, so they do not skew the
numbers too much. In the example shown, the server is idle except for this tool itself,
and one connected replica, which is executing Binlog Dump.

The columns are the number of rows included, the number that are not in Sleep status, the
sum of the Time column, and the maximum Time column. The numbers are fuzzy-rounded.

# Status Counters (Wait 10 Seconds) ##########################
Variable Per day Per second 10 secs
Binlog_cache_disk_use 4
Binlog_cache_use 80
Bytes_received 15000000 175 200
Bytes_sent 15000000 175 2000
Com_admin_commands 1
...................(many lines omitted)............................
Threads_created 40 1
Uptime 90000 1 1

This section shows selected counters from two snapshots of SHOW GLOBAL STATUS, gathered
approximately 10 seconds apart and fuzzy-rounded. It includes only items that are
incrementing counters; it does not include absolute numbers such as the Threads_running
status variable, which represents a current value, rather than an accumulated number over
time.

The first column is the variable name, and the second column is the counter from the first
snapshot divided by 86400 (the number of seconds in a day), so you can see the magnitude
of the counter's change per day. 86400 fuzzy-rounds to 90000, so the Uptime counter should
always be about 90000.

The third column is the value from the first snapshot, divided by Uptime and then fuzzy-
rounded, so it represents approximately how quickly the counter is growing per-second over
the uptime of the server.

The third column is the incremental difference from the first and second snapshot, divided
by the difference in uptime and then fuzzy-rounded. Therefore, it shows how quickly the
counter is growing per second at the time the report was generated.

# Table cache ################################################
Size | 400

This section shows the size of the table cache, followed by the percentage of the table
cache in use. The usage is fuzzy-rounded.

This section shows features that are available in Percona Server and whether they are
enabled or not. In the example shown, the server is standard MySQL, not Percona Server, so
the features are generally not supported.

# Plugins ####################################################

This feature shows specific plugins and whether they are enabled.

# Query cache ################################################

This section shows whether the query cache is enabled and its size, followed by the
percentage of the cache in use and the hit-to-insert ratio. The latter two are fuzzy-
rounded.

If you specify "--databases" or "--all-databases", the tool will print the above section.
This summarizes the number and type of objects in the databases. It is generated by
running "mysqldump --no-data", not by querying the INFORMATION_SCHEMA, which can freeze a
busy server.

The first sub-report in the section is the count of objects by type in each database:
tables, views, and so on. The second one shows how many tables use various storage engines
in each database. The third sub-report shows the number of each type of indexes in each
database.

The last section shows the number of columns of various data types in each database. For
compact display, the column headers are formatted vertically, so you need to read
downwards from the top. In this example, the first column is "char" and the second column
is "timestamp". This example is truncated so it does not wrap on a terminal.

All of the numbers in this portion of the output are exact, not fuzzy-rounded.

buffer pool fill percent and dirty percent are fuzzy-rounded. The last few lines are
derived from the output of SHOW INNODB STATUS. It is likely that this output will change
in the future to become more useful.

# The End ####################################################

This section shows a pretty-printed version of the my.cnf file, with comments removed and
with whitespace added to align things for easy reading. The tool tries to detect the
my.cnf file by looking at the output of ps, and if it does not find the location of the
file there, it tries common locations until it finds a file. Note that this file might not
actually correspond with the server from which the report was generated. This can happen
when the tool isn't run on the same server it's reporting on, or when detecting the
location of the configuration file fails.
