How to install MYSQL NDB cluster

In the tutorial we will install MYSQL Network Database cluster (NDB) using 4 nodes.

Prerequisites

To complete this tutorial, you'll need the following:

• 1 management node
• 2 data nodes
• 1 SQL node
• mysql-cluster-gpl-7.6.7-linux-glibc2.12-x86_64

Naming

db2004.dfw.ppnet = SQL node

db2005.dfw.ppnet = 1st data node

db2006.dfw.ppnet= 2nd data node

db2008.dfw.ppnet= management node

Hardware/software requirements

I am running this in a VM environment. All nodes have 1Gb of RAM and 20GB of disk. To run this in a productions environment please refer to the MSQL NDB cluster documentation.

All 4 nodes are running Debian stretch

lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:	Debian
Description:	Debian GNU/Linux 9.5 (stretch)
Release:	9.5
Codename:	stretch

Networking

IF you want to use the node FQDN you need to have a DNS server or update the /etc/hosts file; othewise, you can you the node IP address. For this tutorial We are gong to use the node FQDN.

• SQL node

127.0.0.1       localhost
10.192.16.62    db2004.dfw.ppnet        db2004

• 1st data node

127.0.0.1       localhost
10.192.16.63    db2005.dfw.ppnet        db2005

• 2nd data node

127.0.0.1       localhost
10.192.16.64    db2006.dfw.ppnet        db2006

• management node

127.0.0.1       localhost
10.192.16.61    db2008.dfw.ppnet        db2008

Installation

login to each node and copy the scrip for each node to the appropriate node

Management node

#!/bin/bash
file="config.ini"
#creae a folder called files under /tmp/
echo " Creating folder"
sleep 3
cd /tmp/
sudo mkdir files 
cd files
#download the ndb_cluser software 
echo "Download ndb_clutser software"
sleep 3
sudo wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/MySQL-Cluster-7.6/mysql-cluster-gpl-7.6.7-linux-glibc2.12-x86_64.tar.gz
echo "unzip the tar file "
sleep 3
sudo tar -xvf mysql-cluster-gpl-7.6.7-linux-glibc2.12-x86_64.tar.gz
#copy files"
echo "copy ndb and ndb_mgmd to /usr/local/bin"
sleep 3
cd mysql-cluster-gpl-7.6.7-linux-glibc2.12-x86_64
cd bin
sudo cp ndb_mgm /usr/bin/
sudo cp ndb_mgmd /usr/bin/
cd /usr/bin/
sudo chmod 755 ndb_mg*
#create the configuration file
echo " Create /var/lib/mysql-cluster/config.ini"
slepp 3
cd /var/lib/mysql-cluster/
if [ ! -f "$file" ] ; then
        # if not create the file
cat > $file << EOF
[ndb_mgmd]
# Management process options:
hostname=db2008.dfw.ppnet  # Hostname of the manager
datadir=/var/lib/mysql-cluster  # Directory for the log files
[ndbd]
hostname=db2005.dfw.ppnet    # Hostname of the first data node
datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data   # Remote directory for the data files
[ndbd]
hostname=db2006.dfw.ppnet    # Hostname of the second data node
datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data   # Remote directory for the data files
[mysqld]
# SQL node options:
hostname=db2004.dfw.ppnet  # Hostname of the MySQL server/client node
EOF
    else echo "$file existe"
    fi
#Start the manegement node
echo"starting the manegement node"
sleep 3
sudo ndb_mgmd -f /var/lib/mysql-cluster/config.ini --configdir=/var/lib/mysql-cluster/

1. make the process to start a boot

echo"start ndb_mgmd at boot" slepp 3 sudo echo "ndb_mgmd -f /var/lib/mysql-cluster/config.ini --configdir=/var/lib/mysql-cluster/" > /etc/init.d/ndb_mgmd sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/ndb_mgmd
