Hello,
I'm having a little problem with MySQL 3.22.13-beta.
The database i'm using is growing too fast, and is over 50 million records
at this moment (total size + indexes is approx. 5.5GB). As it has the
ability to grow to about 6.1 GB on this harddrive i want to solve this.
Does MySQL have the ability to spread the files over different disks ? eg.
the indexes and the data files spread over different paths (and different
disks)
Furthermore, is it possible to create a database that has another 'home'
path then the standard $DATADIR MySQL uses ?
Are these pure source-hacking jobs, or just configuration options I
didn't see ? Is it possible or planned that these features become
available in (near) future releases ?
(Oh btw, i've thought of a RAID0 set, but the problem is that this DB will
be growing & growing.. I'd need to use some AMI RAID board which can
handle addition of disks after the RAID set has been made etc etc..)
Thanks in advance !
Greets,
Nils Swart
