I'm working with MySQL5 replication at the moment. All is working fine except for one problem - there's a large table on the Master that I don't want to replicate (bandwidth), and the Master is running MySQL4.
The MySQL manual refers to --replicate-ignore-table=db.tbl, but my understanding of this is that the Slave retrieves all data made available by the Master, *then* discards data based on ignore rules, thus not solving my bandwidth issue. Can anyone confirm or deny this? Any suggestions for getting around the problem? -- Sonia Hamilton -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
