Dynamic Variable
If this option is set to 1, use compression for the slave/master protocol if both the slave and the
master support it. The default is 0 (no compression).
•
--slave-load-tmpdir=file_name
The name of the directory where the slave creates temporary files. This option is by default equal to
the value of the
tmpdir
statement, it extracts the file to be loaded from the relay log into temporary files, and then
INFILE
loads these into the table. If the file loaded on the master is huge, the temporary files on the slave
are huge, too. Therefore, it might be advisable to use this option to tell the slave to put temporary
files in a directory located in some file system that has a lot of available space. In that case, the relay
logs are huge as well, so you might also want to use the
relay logs in that file system.
The directory specified by this option should be located in a disk-based file system (not a memory-
based file system) because the temporary files used to replicate
machine restarts. The directory also should not be one that is cleared by the operating system during
the system startup process.
