Hi Guys, Need some pointers. I've got a MySQL server (5.0.22) which is basically pulling data from SQL Server into a file and then I'm using mysqlimport to load the data into the DB. The updates are being generated like every 2 to 5 seconds.
Due to this, my Binary Log files are huge! (and many) I took a look at the binary logs using mysqlbinlog and it returns everyhing as just load data infile statements. There isn't any actual data inside of it. So, my question is, Do I really need these binary logs since I read from the Book/site that binary logs are useful for rolling back transactions / master-slave replication etc. Since these logs does not contain any actual data and I don't have a slave DB. BTW, I've already set the logs to expire every 5 days for the time being. Just wanted to check with the people here for information and advise.
