I would like to know how feasible it would be to have more than one mysql server accessing the same data dir.
Not recommended.
e.g. having two different computers accessing the data dir over a nfs mount
And *especially* not recommended over NFS.
my logic tells me that it will work correctly seeing that mysql spans a new process for each query
Hmm ... well, for one thing, the server *doesn't* span (spawn?) a new process per query, so your assumption is incorrect in the first place. But even if that were true, how would that have anything to do with whether it's safe to point two servers at the same database?
dose anyone know for sure if this will work Thanks a bunch Kenneth W Lichtenberger
