Replication and Binary Logging Options and Variables
Another case which may not be self-evident occurs when a given database is replicated even though
it was not specified when setting the option. If the server is started with --binlog-do-db=sales,
the following
UPDATE

USE sales;
UPDATE prices.discounts SET percentage = percentage + 10;
Because is the default database when the
sales
logged.
Important
To log multiple databases, use this option multiple times, specifying the
option once for each database to be logged. Because database names can
contain commas, the list will be treated as the name of a single database if
you supply a comma-separated list.

This option affects binary logging in a manner similar to the way that
