Let the discussion begin!
The global transaction ID project done by Justin at Google is worth reviewing. In addition to supporting automated slave failover it also has options to make slave state crash-proof and add binlog event checksums. I doubt the patch should be reused, as the MySQL replication interface must be improved if we are to innovate -- but the wiki has a lot of details. * http://code.google.com/p/google-mysql-tools/wiki/GlobalTransactionIds * http://code.launchpad.net/~jtolmer/mysql-server/global-trx-ids -- Mark Callaghan mdcallag@gmail.com
