pt-slave-find - Find and print replication hierarchy tree of MySQL slaves.
Usage: pt-slave-find [OPTIONS] [DSN]
pt-slave-find finds and prints a hierarchy tree of MySQL slaves.
Examples:
pt-slave-find --host master-host
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:
pt-slave-find connects to a MySQL replication master and finds its slaves. Currently the only thing it can do is print a tree-like view of the replication hierarchy.
The master host can be specified using one of two methods. The first method is to use the standard connection-related command line options: "--defaults-file", "--password", "--host", "--port", "--socket" or "--user".
The second method to specify the master host is a DSN. A DSN is a special syntax that can be either just a hostname (like "server.domain.com" or 1.2.3.4), or a "key=value,key=value" string. Keys are a single letter:
KEY MEANING === ======= h Connect to host P Port number to use for connection S Socket file to use for connection u User for login if not current user p Password to use when connecting F Only read default options from the given file
"pt-slave-find" reads all normal MySQL option files, such as ~/.my.cnf, so you may not need to specify username, password and other common options at all.
An exit status of 0 (sometimes also called a return value or return code) indicates success. Any other value represents the exit status of the Perl process itself.
This tool accepts additional command-line arguments. Refer to the "SYNOPSIS" and usage information for details.
Default character set. If the value is utf8, sets Perl's binmode on STDOUT to utf8, passes the mysql_enable_utf8 option to DBD::mysql, and runs SET NAMES UTF8 after connecting to MySQL. Any other value sets binmode on STDOUT without the utf8 layer, and runs SET NAMES after connecting to MySQL.
Read this comma-separated list of config files; if specified, this must be the first option on the command line.
Database to use.
Only read mysql options from the given file. You must give an absolute pathname.
Connect to host.
Password to use when connecting. If password contains commas they must be escaped with a backslash: "exam\,ple"
Create the given PID file. The tool won't start if the PID file already exists and the PID it contains is different than the current PID. However, if the PID file exists and the PID it contains is no longer running, the tool will overwrite the PID file with the current PID. The PID file is removed automatically when the tool exits.
Port number to use for connection.
Number of levels to recurse in the hierarchy. Default is infinite.
See "--recursion-method".
Preferred recursion method used to find slaves.
Possible methods are:
METHOD USES
=========== ==================
processlist SHOW PROCESSLIST
hosts SHOW SLAVE HOSTS
none Do not find slaves
The processlist method is preferred because SHOW SLAVE HOSTS is not reliable. However, the hosts method is required if the server uses a non-standard port (not 3306). Usually pt-slave-find does the right thing and finds the slaves, but you may give a preferred method and it will be used first. If it doesn't find any slaves, the other methods will be tried.
Set what information about the slaves is printed. The report format can be one of the following:
Print just the hostname name of the slaves. It looks like:
127.0.0.1:12345
+- 127.0.0.1:12346
+- 127.0.0.1:12347
Print a summary of each slave's settings. This report shows more information about each slave, like:
127.0.0.1:12345
Version 5.1.34-log
Server ID 12345
Uptime 04:56 (started 2010-06-17T11:21:22)
Replication Is not a slave, has 1 slaves connected
Filters
Binary logging STATEMENT
Slave status
Slave mode STRICT
Auto-increment increment 1, offset 1
+- 127.0.0.1:12346
Version 5.1.34-log
Server ID 12346
Uptime 04:54 (started 2010-06-17T11:21:24)
Replication Is a slave, has 1 slaves connected
Filters
Binary logging STATEMENT
Slave status 0 seconds behind, running, no errors
Slave mode STRICT
Auto-increment increment 1, offset 1
Example:
10.10.7.14 (dbase1.sample.net)
Might delay runtime a few seconds.
Sets the user to be used to connect to the slaves. This parameter allows you to have a different user with less privileges on the slaves but that user must exist on all slaves.
Sets the password to be used to connect to the slaves. It can be used with --slave-user and the password for the user must be the same on all slaves.
Set the MySQL variables in this comma-separated list of "variable=value" pairs.
By default, the tool sets:
wait_timeout=10000
Variables specified on the command line override these defaults. For example, specifying "--set-vars wait_timeout=500" overrides the defaultvalue of 10000.
The tool prints a warning and continues if a variable cannot be set.
Socket file to use for connection.
User for login if not current user.
These DSN options are used to create a DSN. Each option is given like "option=value". The options are case-sensitive, so P and p are not the same option. There cannot be whitespace before or after the "=" and if the value contains whitespace it must be quoted. DSN options are comma-separated. See the percona-toolkit manpage for full details.
dsn: charset; copy: yes
Default character set.
dsn: database; copy: yes
Default database.
dsn: mysql_read_default_file; copy: yes
Only read default options from the given file
dsn: host; copy: yes
Connect to host.
dsn: password; copy: yes
Password to use when connecting. If password contains commas they must be escaped with a backslash: "exam\,ple"
dsn: port; copy: yes
Port number to use for connection.
dsn: mysql_socket; copy: yes
Socket file to use for connection.
dsn: user; copy: yes
User for login if not current user.
The environment variable "PTDEBUG" enables verbose debugging output to STDERR. To enable debugging and capture all output to a file, run the tool like:
PTDEBUG=1 pt-slave-find ... > FILE 2>&1
Be careful: debugging output is voluminous and can generate several megabytes of output.
You need Perl, DBI, DBD::mysql, and some core packages that ought to be installed in any reasonably new version of Perl.

This tool is part of Percona Toolkit, a collection of advanced command-line tools for MySQL developed by Percona. Percona Toolkit was forked from two projects in June, 2011: Maatkit and Aspersa. Those projects were created by Baron Schwartz and primarily developed by him and Daniel Nichter. Visit <http://www.percona.com/software/> to learn about other free, open-source software from Percona.
