Doing a little fishing here ... Does someone know of a reason why a downstream replica would--seemingly spontaneously--start writing ALL of its binary log entries in ROW format, even though binlog_format is MIXED? This replica has been running for quite some time, though admittedly I had to restore it from a backup about 3 weeks ago as the result of a server crash. But it had been writing data fine over those three weeks (and prior); starting on March 2nd it started writing all of its entries in ROW format. I didn't notice until it filled the disk this morning. I can't think of anything that may have changed at that time. Normally a few entries will get written as ROW but most are definitely MIXED in normal operation. I stopped/restarted it this morning and it's writing in MIXED again, as expected. I also checked the upstream primary, it is _not_ writing its records as ROW. I.E., my replica is (apparently) not getting them that way from upstream. Both are 10.11.8. Any ideas? TIA, Dan
