Hello,

I set up a replication architecture with MySql
everything works fine.
Now I concentrate on log-bin file and I have a question

I have understood (I hope... )
 -that I can set a max_binlog_size,
 -that a new file (extension n+1)  will be used while reaching max_binlog_size,
 -that the slave will know the new log-bin filename and position

so doing a 'purge master logs' will remove previous files ok, but

        what is the high limit for the extension value ?

This question because a set up a  mysql server,
running for months and months without stopping,
and with a lot of insert/update

In over words how to set a initial extension value WITHOUT stopping master nor slave ?

According to me, the only solution is doing a 'reset master' with a lot of care like :
("lock master"; "sync slave"; "reset master"; "reset slave"; "unlock master")

But doing a "lock master" seem to me dangerous for many reasons

Do I misunderstood  something ?

Regards
