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 = 1st SQL node

db2009.dfw.pppnet = 2nd 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. 

free -h

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.

  • 1st SQL node
127.0.0.1       localhost
10.192.16.62    db2004.dfw.ppnet        db2004
  • 2nd SQL node
127.0.0.1       localhost
10.192.16.29    db2009.dfw.ppnet        db2009
  • 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

sudo vi mgmt_node.sh

#!/bin/bash
file="config.ini"
#create a folder called files under /tmp/
echo " Creating folder"
sleep 3
cd /tmp/
sudo mkdir files 
cd files
#download the ndb_cluster software 
echo "Download ndb_cluster 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"
sleep 3
sudo mkdir /var/lib/mysql-cluster/
cd /var/lib/mysql-cluster
if [ ! -f "$file" ] ; then
        # if not create the file
cat > $file << EOF
[ndb_mgmd]
# Management process options:

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 1st SQL node
[mysqld]
hostname=db2009.dfw.ppnet  # Hostname of the 2nd SQL node
EOF
    else echo "$file existe"
    fi
#Start the manegement node
echo"starting the manegement node"
sleep 3
cd
sudo ndb_mgmd -f /var/lib/mysql-cluster/config.ini --configdir=/var/lib/mysql-cluster/
#make the process to start a boot
echo"start ndb_mgmd at boot"
sleep 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

Make the script executable 

sudo chmod +x mgmt_node.sh

Run the script 

sudo ./mgmt_node.sh

Set back and relax

AFter the scrpt complete type command 

ndb_mgm

The output should look the same as below 

-- NDB Cluster -- Management Client --
ndb_mgm>

At the prompt, type "show" and you should see 

ndb_mgm> show
Connected to Management Server at: localhost:1186
Cluster Configuration
---------------------
[ndbd(NDB)]	2 node(s)
id=2 (not connected, accepting connect from db2005.dfw.ppnet)
id=3 (not connected, accepting connect from db2006.dfw.ppnet)
[ndb_mgmd(MGM)]	1 node(s)
id=1	@10.192.16.61  (mysql-5.7.23 ndb-7.6.7)
[mysqld(API)]	2 node(s)
id=4 (not connected, accepting connect from db2004.dfw.ppnet)
id=5 (not connected, accepting connect from db2009.dfw.ppnet)

We can see that the management node is up and running and the data nodes and SQL nodes are stay down. In the next session we are going to setup the data nodes

Data node

Create a file on you data nodes and copy and paste the script below. 

sudo vi data_node.sh

#!/bin/bash
#create a folder called files under /tmp/
echo " Creating folder"
sleep 3
cd /tmp/
sudo mkdir files 
cd files
#download the ndb_cluster software 
echo "Download ndb_cluster 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
cd  mysql-cluster-gpl-7.6.7-linux-glibc2.12-x86_64/bin
#copy files ndbd and ndbmtd to /usr/local/bin
sudo cp ndbd /usr/local/bin
sudo cp ndbmtd /usr/local/bin
cd /usr/local/bin
sudo chmod 755 ndb*
#create the my.cnf file /etc/my.cnf
cd /etc/
if [ ! -f "$file" ] ; then
        # if not create the file
cat > $file << EOF
[mysqld]
ndbcluster
[mysql_cluster]
ndb-connectstring=db2008.dfw.ppnet
EOF
else echo "$file existe"
    fi
#Create the data directory 
sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/mysql/data
#start the service
cd
ndbd

save the file and close it. Make the file executable 

sudo chmod +x data._node.sh

run the file 

sudo ./data_node.sh

After the installation you should get the output below 

2018-09-19 00:06:16 [ndbd] INFO     -- Angel connected to 'db2008.dfw.ppnet:1186'
2018-09-19 00:06:16 [ndbd] INFO     -- Angel allocated nodeid: 2

Repeat the above steps for each data node. Once done, login to your management node to check the 2 data nodes

  • check the management server
ppaul@db2008:~$ ndb_mgm
-- NDB Cluster -- Management Client --
ndb_mgm> show
Connected to Management Server at: localhost:1186
Cluster Configuration
---------------------
[ndbd(NDB)]	2 node(s)

id=3	@10.192.16.64  (mysql-5.7.23 ndb-7.6.7, Nodegroup: 0, *)
[ndb_mgmd(MGM)]	1 node(s)
id=1	@10.192.16.61  (mysql-5.7.23 ndb-7.6.7)
[mysqld(API)]	1 node(s)
id=4 (not connected, accepting connect from db2004.dfw.ppnet)
id=5 (not connected, accepting connect from db2009.dfw.ppnet)
ndb_mgm5

We see that the 2 data nodes are up and running. In the next step, we will setup the mysql_node

SQL node

Login to you sql node (my case db2004) as root and create a file called "sql_node.sh" and copy and paste the content below into the file. 

sudo vi sql_node.sh

#!/bin/bash
###sql node
##run as root##
file="my.cnf"
#Create the mysql user and group
echo "Add user and group mysql"
sleep 3
groupadd mysql
useradd -g mysql mysql
#create a folder called files under /tmp/
echo "Creating folder"
sleep 3
cd /tmp/
mkdir files
cd files
#Download the ndb_cluster software
echo "Download ndb_cluster 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
mv mysql-cluster-gpl-7.6.7-linux-glibc2.12-x86_64/ /usr/local/
#Create symbolic link
echo "reate symbolic link"
cd /usr/local
ln -s mysql-cluster-gpl-7.6.7-linux-glibc2.12-x86_64/ /usr/local/mysql
apt-get install libaio1
apt-get install libaio-dev
apt-get install libnuma1
#Change to mysql directory, initialize Mysql
echo "Initilize MYSQL"
sleep 3
cd /usr/local/mysql/bin/
./mysqld --initialize \
--user=mysql \
--basedir=/usr/local/mysql \
--datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data
#Relocate the bin repectory under /usr/local/mysql/bin
cd /usr/local/mysql/bin
mv * /usr/bin
cd ../
rm -fr /usr/local/mysql/bin
ln -s /usr/bin /usr/local/mysql/bin
#Set permission for root and mysql users
echo "Setting permission"
sleep 3
cd /usr/local/
chown -R root:root mysql
cd /usr/local/mysql
chown -R mysql:mysql data/
#set mysqld to start at boot
echo "mysqld sartup"
sleep 3
cd /usr/local/mysql/
cp support-files/mysql.server /etc/init.d/
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/mysql.server
#create the my.cnf file /etc/my.cnf
cd /etc/
if [ ! -f "$file" ] ; then
        # if not create the file
cat > $file << EOF
[mysqld]
ndbcluster
default_storage_engine = NDBCLUSTER
[mysql_cluster]
ndb-connectstring=db2008.dfw.ppnet
[mysqld]
basedir=/usr/local/mysql
EOF
else echo "$file existe"
fi
#Start MYSQL"
echo "starting mysql"
sleep 3
/etc/init.d/mysql.server start

Save the file and make it executable 

chmod +x sql_node.sh

Run the file 

./sql_node.sh

After completion, you will see a line that says; "[Note] A temporary password is generated for root@localhost: taE2*BEj;,:N" Copy and paste the temporary password somewhere. we will change this in the next step.

Repeat the above steps for each SQL node. Once done, login to your management node to check the 2 SQL nodes

Verification

login to you management node once again and type "ndb_mgm" then "show" 

ppaul@db2008:~$ ndb_mgm
-- NDB Cluster -- Management Client --
ndb_mgm> show
Connected to Management Server at: localhost:1186
Cluster Configuration
---------------------
[ndbd(NDB)]	2 node(s)

id=3	@10.192.16.64  (mysql-5.7.23 ndb-7.6.7, Nodegroup: 0, *)
[ndb_mgmd(MGM)]	1 node(s)
id=1	@10.192.16.61  (mysql-5.7.23 ndb-7.6.7)
[mysqld(API)]	1 node(s)

id=5	@10.192.16.29  (mysql-5.7.23 ndb-7.6.7)
ndb_mgm>

We can see that we now have the sql nodes up

Changing the default root password

Login to your SQL node as root and issue the command " mysql -u root -p" when prompt, enter or copy and paste the temporary password. At the mysql prompt, type "set password = 'your_new_password'" 

root@db2004:~# mysql -u root -p 
Enter password: 
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.

We can see that what matter what SQL node we pick to use, we have the same data on both nodes.

Management

How to add a new SQL or data node

  • Step 1

Before you add a new SQL or data node, make sure if you have using the IP address that the management node can ping the new node and the new node can ping also the management node. If you are using the FQDN or hostanme, make sure that name can be resolved by both the management node and the new node.

  • step 2

Login to your management node and stop the management node with the command "1 stop" 1 being the node ID 

ndb_mgm> show
Cluster Configuration
---------------------
[ndbd(NDB)]	2 node(s)
id=2	@10.192.16.63  (mysql-5.7.23 ndb-7.6.7, starting, Nodegroup: 0)
id=3	@10.192.16.64  (mysql-5.7.23 ndb-7.6.7, Nodegroup: 0, *)
[ndb_mgmd(MGM)]	1 node(s)
id=1	@10.192.16.61  (mysql-5.7.23 ndb-7.6.7)
[mysqld(API)]	2 node(s)
id=4	@10.192.16.62  (mysql-5.7.23 ndb-7.6.7)
id=5	@10.192.16.29  (mysql-5.7.23 ndb-7.6.7)
ndb_mgm> Node 2: Started (version 7.6.7) 
ndb_mgm> 1 stop
Node 1 has shutdown.
Disconnecting to allow Management Server to shutdown
  • Step 3

Navigate to your config.ini file and add the new node to the file 

[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
[ndbd]
hostname=new_Data node name/IP       # Hostname of the third data node
datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data   # Remote directory for the data files
#SQL node options
[mysqld]
hostname=db2004.dfw.ppnet  #SQL node1
[mysqld]
hostname=db2009.dfw.ppnet  #SQL node2
[mysqld]
hostname=new_sql node name/IP  #SQL node3

save the file and exit.

  • Step 4

Reload the config file 

sudo ndb_mgmd -f /var/lib/mysql-cluster/config.ini --reload
  • Step5

if you are adding a data node, follow the step on how to add a data node

if you are adding a SQL node, follow the step on how to add a sql node

This complete the step on adding a new node.

Maintenance

This is perform on the management node

  • shutting down the whole cluster
ndb_mgm> shutdown
  • shut down a single node
node id stop

If mysql is stay running on the SQL nodes, and you have 2 data nodes like in this tutorial, you can not shut down both data nodes. This is to prevent data lost or application error. so if you have for example:

2 data nodes you can shut down only 1 node 3 data nodes you can shut down 2 nodes

if you want to shut down all data nodes, you must shut down all SQL nodes first.
