MARIADB-BINLOG(1) MariaDB Database System MARIADB-BINLOG(1)
mariadb-binlog - utility for processing binary log files
(mysqlbinlog is now a symlink to mariadb-binlog)
mysqlbinlog [options] log_file ...
The server´s binary log consists of files containing “events”
that describe modifications to database contents. The server
writes these files in binary format. To display their contents in
text format, use the mysqlbinlog utility. You can also use
mysqlbinlog to display the contents of relay log files written by
a slave server in a replication setup because relay logs have the
same format as binary logs.
Invoke mysqlbinlog like this:
shell> mysqlbinlog [options] log_file ...
For example, to display the contents of the binary log file named
binlog.000003, use this command:
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.0000003
The output includes events contained in binlog.000003. For
statement-based logging, event information includes the SQL
statement, the ID of the server on which it was executed, the
timestamp when the statement was executed, how much time it took,
and so forth. For row-based logging, the event indicates a row
change rather than an SQL statement.
Events are preceded by header comments that provide additional
information. For example:
# at 141
#100309 9:28:36 server id 123 end_log_pos 245
Query thread_id=3350 exec_time=11 error_code=0
In the first line, the number following at indicates the starting
position of the event in the binary log file.
The second line starts with a date and time indicating when the
statement started on the server where the event originated. For
replication, this timestamp is propagated to slave servers.
server id is the server_id value of the server where the event
originated. end_log_pos indicates where the next event starts
(that is, it is the end position of the current event + 1).
thread_id indicates which thread executed the event. exec_time
is the time spent executing the event, on a master server. On a
slave, it is the difference of the end execution time on the
slave minus the beginning execution time on the master. The
difference serves as an indicator of how much replication lags
behind the master. error_code indicates the result from
executing the event. Zero means that no error occurred.
The output from mysqlbinlog can be re-executed (for example, by
using it as input to mysql) to redo the statements in the log.
This is useful for recovery operations after a server crash. For
other usage examples, see the discussion later in this section.
Normally, you use mysqlbinlog to read binary log files directly
and apply them to the local MariaDB server. It is also possible
to read binary logs from a remote server by using the
--read-from-remote-server option. To read remote binary logs, the
connection parameter options can be given to indicate how to
connect to the server. These options are --host, --password,
--port, --protocol, --socket, and --user; they are ignored except
when you also use the --read-from-remote-server option.
mysqlbinlog supports the following options, which can be
specified on the command line or in the [mysqlbinlog] and
[client] option file groups.
• --help, -?
Display a help message and exit.
• --base64-output=value
This option determines when events should be displayed
encoded as base-64 strings using BINLOG statements. The
option has these allowable values (not case sensitive):
• AUTO ("automatic") or UNSPEC ("unspecified") displays
BINLOG statements automatically when necessary (that is,
for format description events and row events). This is
the default if no --base64-output option is given.
Note
Automatic BINLOG display is the only safe behavior if
you intend to use the output of mysqlbinlog to
re-execute binary log file contents. The other option
values are intended only for debugging or testing
purposes because they may produce output that does
not include all events in executable form.
• NEVER causes BINLOG statements not to be displayed.
mysqlbinlog exits with an error if a row event is found
that must be displayed using BINLOG.
• DECODE-ROWS specifies to mysqlbinlog that you intend for
row events to be decoded and displayed as commented SQL
statements by also specifying the --verbose option. Like
NEVER, DECODE-ROWS suppresses display of BINLOG
statements, but unlike NEVER, it does not exit with an
error if a row event is found.
The --base64-output can be given as --base64-output or
--skip-base64-output (with the sense of AUTO or NEVER).
For examples that show the effect of --base64-output and
--verbose on row event output, see the section called
“MYSQLBINLOG ROW EVENT DISPLAY”.
• --binlog-row-event-max-size=path
The directory where character sets are installed.
• --character-sets-dir=path
The directory where character sets are installed.
• --database=db_name, -d db_name
This option causes mysqlbinlog to output entries from the
binary log (local log only) that occur while db_name has been
selected as the default database by USE.
The --database option for mysqlbinlog is similar to the
--binlog-do-db option for mysqld, but can be used to specify
only one database. If --database is given multiple times,
only the last instance is used.
The effects of this option depend on whether the
statement-based or row-based logging format is in use, in the
same way that the effects of --binlog-do-db depend on whether
statement-based or row-based logging is in use.
Statement-based logging. The --database option works as
follows:
• While db_name is the default database, statements are
output whether they modify tables in db_name or a
different database.
• Unless db_name is selected as the default database,
statements are not output, even if they modify tables in
db_name.
• There is an exception for CREATE DATABASE, ALTER
DATABASE, and DROP DATABASE. The database being created,
altered, or dropped is considered to be the default
database when determining whether to output the
statement.
Suppose that the binary log was created by executing
these statements using statement-based-logging:
INSERT INTO test.t1 (i) VALUES(100);
INSERT INTO db2.t2 (j) VALUES(200);
USE test;
INSERT INTO test.t1 (i) VALUES(101);
INSERT INTO t1 (i) VALUES(102);
INSERT INTO db2.t2 (j) VALUES(201);
USE db2;
INSERT INTO test.t1 (i) VALUES(103);
INSERT INTO db2.t2 (j) VALUES(202);
INSERT INTO t2 (j) VALUES(203);
mysqlbinlog --database=test does not output the first two
INSERT statements because there is no default database.
It outputs the three INSERT statements following USE
test, but not the three INSERT statements following USE
db2.
mysqlbinlog --database=db2 does not output the first two
INSERT statements because there is no default database.
It does not output the three INSERT statements following
USE test, but does output the three INSERT statements
following USE db2.
Row-based logging. mysqlbinlog outputs only entries that
change tables belonging to db_name. The default database
has no effect on this. Suppose that the binary log just
described was created using row-based logging rather than
statement-based logging. mysqlbinlog --database=test
outputs only those entries that modify t1 in the test
database, regardless of whether USE was issued or what
the default database is. If a server is running with
binlog_format set to MIXED and you want it to be possible
to use mysqlbinlog with the --database option, you must
ensure that tables that are modified are in the database
selected by USE. (In particular, no cross-database
updates should be used.)
Note
This option did not work correctly for mysqlbinlog
with row-based logging prior to MySQL 5.1.37.
• --debug[=debug_options], -# [debug_options]
Write a debugging log. A typical debug_options string is
´d:t:o,file_name´. The default is
´d:t:o,/tmp/mysqlbinlog.trace´.
• --debug-check
Print some debugging information when the program exits.
• --debug-info
Print debugging information and memory and CPU usage
statistics when the program exits.
• --defaults-extra-file=name
Read this file after the global files are read.
• --defaults-file=name
Only read default options from the given file.
• --default-auth=name
Default authentication client-side plugin to use.
• --disable-log-bin, -D
Disable binary logging. This is useful for avoiding an
endless loop if you use the --to-last-log option and are
sending the output to the same MariaDB server. This option
also is useful when restoring after a crash to avoid
duplication of the statements you have logged.
This option requires that you have the SUPER privilege. It
causes mysqlbinlog to include a SET sql_log_bin = 0 statement
in its output to disable binary logging of the remaining
output. The SET statement is ineffective unless you have the
SUPER privilege.
• --force-if-open
Force if binlog was not closed properly. Defaults to on; use
--skip-force-if-open to disable.
• --force-read, -f
With this option, if mysqlbinlog reads a binary log event
that it does not recognize, it prints a warning, ignores the
event, and continues. Without this option, mysqlbinlog stops
if it reads such an event.
• --hexdump, -H
Display a hex dump of the log in comments, as described in
the section called “MYSQLBINLOG HEX DUMP FORMAT”. The hex
output can be helpful for replication debugging.
• --host=host_name, -h host_name
Get the binary log from the MariaDB server on the given host.
• --local-load=path, -l path
Prepare local temporary files for LOAD DATA INFILE in the
specified directory.
• --no-defaults
Don't read default options from any option file.
• --offset=N, -o N
Skip the first N entries in the log.
• --open-files-limit=NUM
Sets the open_files_limit variable, which is used to reserve
file descriptors for mysqlbinlog.
• --password[=password], -p[password]
The password to use when connecting to the server. If you use
the short option form (-p), you cannot have a space between
the option and the password. If you omit the password value
following the --password or -p option on the command line,
mysqlbinlog prompts for one.
Specifying a password on the command line should be
considered insecure. You can use an option file to avoid
giving the password on the command line.
• --plugin-dir=dir_name
Directory for client-side plugins.
• --print-defaults
Print the program argument list from all option files and
exit.
• --port=port_num, -P port_num
The TCP/IP port number to use for connecting to a remote
server, or 0 for default to, in order of preference, my.cnf,
$MYSQL_TCP_PORT, /etc/services, built-in default (3306).
Forces --protocol=tcp when specified on the command line
without other connection properties.
• --protocol={TCP|SOCKET|PIPE|MEMORY}
The connection protocol to use for connecting to the server.
It is useful when the other connection parameters normally
would cause a protocol to be used other than the one you
want.
• --raw
Requires -R. Output raw binlog data instead of SQL
statements. Output files named after server logs.
• --read-from-remote-server, -R
Read the binary log from a MariaDB server rather than reading
a local log file. Any connection parameter options are
ignored unless this option is given as well. These options
are --host, --password, --port, --protocol, --socket, and
--user.
This option requires that the remote server be running. It
works only for binary log files on the remote server, not
relay log files.
• --result-file=name, -r name
Direct output to the given file. With --raw this is a prefix
for the file names.
• --rewrite-db=name, -r name
Updates to a database with a different name than the
original. Example: rewrite-db='from->to'. For events that
are binlogged as statements, rewriting the database
constitutes changing a statement's default database from db1
to db2. There is no statement analysis or rewrite of any
kind, that is, if one specifies "db1.tbl" in the statement
explicitly, that occurrence won't be changed to "db2.tbl".
Row-based events are rewritten correctly to use the new
database name. Filtering (e.g. with --database=name) happens
after the database rewrites have been performed. If you use
this option on the command line and ">" has a special meaning
to your command interpreter, quote the value (e.g. --rewrite-
db="oldname->newname".
• --server-id=id
Display only those events created by the server having the
given server ID.
• --set-charset=charset_name
Add a SET NAMES charset_name statement to the output to
specify the character set to be used for processing log
files.
• --short-form, -s
Display only the statements contained in the log, no extra
info and no row-based events. This is for testing only, and
should not be used in production systems. If you want to
suppress base64-output, consider using --base64-output=never
instead.
• --socket=path, -S path
For connections to localhost, the Unix socket file to use,
or, on Windows, the name of the named pipe to use. Forces
--protocol=socket when specified on the command line without
other connection properties; on Windows, forces
--protocol=pipe.
• --start-datetime=datetime
Start reading the binary log at the first event having a
timestamp equal to or later than the datetime argument. The
datetime value is relative to the local time zone on the
machine where you run mysqlbinlog. The value should be in a
format accepted for the DATETIME or TIMESTAMP data types. For
example:
shell> mysqlbinlog --start-datetime="2014-12-25 11:25:56" binlog.000003
This option is useful for point-in-time recovery.
• --start-position=N, -j N
Start reading the binary log at N. Type can either be a
positive integer or a GTID list. When using a positive
integer, the value only applies to the first binlog passed on
the command line, and the first event that has a position
equal to or greater than N is printed. In GTID mode, multiple
GTIDs can be passed as a comma separated list, where each
must have a unique domain id. The list represents the gtid
binlog state that the client (another "replica" server) is
aware of. Therefore, each GTID is exclusive; only events
after a given sequence number will be printed to allow users
to receive events after their current state.
This option is useful for point-in-time recovery.
• --gtid-strict-mode
Process binlog according to gtid-strict-mode specification.
The start, stop positions are verified to satisfy start <
stop comparison condition. Sequence numbers of any gtid
domain must comprise monotically growing sequence.
• --stop-datetime=datetime
Stop reading the binary log at the first event having a
timestamp equal to or later than the datetime argument. This
option is useful for point-in-time recovery. See the
description of the --start-datetime option for information
about the datetime value.
This option is useful for point-in-time recovery.
• --stop-never
Wait for more data from the server instead of stopping at the
end of the last log. Implies --to-last-log.
• --stop-never-slave-server-id
The slave server_id used for --read-from-remote-server
--stop-never.
• --stop-position=N
Stop reading the binary log at the first event having a
position equal to or greater than N. Type can either be a
positive integer or a GTID list. When using a positive
integer, the value only applies to the last log file named on
the command line. When in GTID mode, multiple GTIDs can be
passed as a comma separated list, where each must have a
unique domain id. Each GTID is inclusive; only events up to
the given sequence numbers are printed.
This option is useful for point-in-time recovery.
• --table, -T
List entries for just this table (local log only).
• --to-last-log, -t
Do not stop at the end of the requested binary log from a
MariaDB server, but rather continue printing until the end of
the last binary log. If you send the output to the same
MariaDB server, this may lead to an endless loop, so this
option requires --read-from-remote-server.
• --user=user_name, -u user_name
The MariaDB username to use when connecting to a remote
server.
• --verbose, -v
Reconstruct row events and display them as commented SQL
statements. If this option is given twice, the output
includes comments to indicate column data types and some
metadata. If this option is given three times, the output
includes diagnostic warnings about event integrity before
program exit.
For examples that show the effect of --base64-output and
--verbose on row event output, see the section called
“MYSQLBINLOG ROW EVENT DISPLAY”.
• --version, -V
Display version information and exit.
You can also set the following variable by using --var_name=value
syntax:
• open_files_limit
Specify the number of open file descriptors to reserve.
You can pipe the output of mysqlbinlog into the mysql client to
execute the events contained in the binary log. This technique is
used to recover from a crash when you have an old backup. For
example:
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000001 | mysql -u root -p
Or:
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.[0-9]* | mysql -u root -p
You can also redirect the output of mysqlbinlog to a text file
instead, if you need to modify the statement log first (for
example, to remove statements that you do not want to execute for
some reason). After editing the file, execute the statements that
it contains by using it as input to the mysql program:
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000001 > tmpfile
shell> ... edit tmpfile ...
shell> mysql -u root -p < tmpfile
When mysqlbinlog is invoked with the --start-position option, it
displays only those events with an offset in the binary log
greater than or equal to a given position (the given position
must match the start of one event). It also has options to stop
and start when it sees an event with a given date and time. This
enables you to perform point-in-time recovery using the
--stop-datetime option (to be able to say, for example, “roll
forward my databases to how they were today at 10:30 a.m.”).
If you have more than one binary log to execute on the MariaDB
server, the safe method is to process them all using a single
connection to the server. Here is an example that demonstrates
what may be unsafe:
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000001 | mysql -u root -p # DANGER!!
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000002 | mysql -u root -p # DANGER!!
Processing binary logs this way using different connections to
the server causes problems if the first log file contains a
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE statement and the second log contains a
statement that uses the temporary table. When the first mysql
process terminates, the server drops the temporary table. When
the second mysql process attempts to use the table, the server
reports “unknown table.”
To avoid problems like this, use a single mysql process to
execute the contents of all binary logs that you want to process.
Here is one way to do so:
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000001 binlog.000002 | mysql -u root -p
Another approach is to write all the logs to a single file and
then process the file:
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000001 > /tmp/statements.sql
shell> mysqlbinlog binlog.000002 >> /tmp/statements.sql
shell> mysql -u root -p -e "source /tmp/statements.sql"
mysqlbinlog can produce output that reproduces a LOAD DATA INFILE
operation without the original data file. mysqlbinlog copies the
data to a temporary file and writes a LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE
statement that refers to the file. The default location of the
directory where these files are written is system-specific. To
specify a directory explicitly, use the --local-load option.
Because mysqlbinlog converts LOAD DATA INFILE statements to LOAD
DATA LOCAL INFILE statements (that is, it adds LOCAL), both the
client and the server that you use to process the statements must
be configured with the LOCAL capability enabled.
Warning
The temporary files created for LOAD DATA LOCAL statements
are not automatically deleted because they are needed until
you actually execute those statements. You should delete the
temporary files yourself after you no longer need the
statement log. The files can be found in the temporary file
directory and have names like original_file_name-#-#.
The --hexdump option causes mysqlbinlog to produce a hex dump of
the binary log contents:
shell> mysqlbinlog --hexdump master-bin.000001
The hex output consists of comment lines beginning with #, so the
output might look like this for the preceding command:
/*!40019 SET @@session.max_insert_delayed_threads=0*/;
/*!50003 SET @OLD_COMPLETION_TYPE=@@COMPLETION_TYPE,COMPLETION_TYPE=0*/;

event.
• Size: The size in bytes of the event.
• Master Pos: The position of the next event in the original
master log file.
• Flags: 16 flags. Currently, the following flags are used. The
others are reserved for future use.
┌──────┬─────────────────────────────┬────────────────────────────┐

The following examples illustrate how mysqlbinlog displays row
events that specify data modifications. These correspond to
events with the WRITE_ROWS_EVENT, UPDATE_ROWS_EVENT, and
DELETE_ROWS_EVENT type codes. The --base64-output=DECODE-ROWS and
--verbose options may be used to affect row event output.
Suppose that the server is using row-based binary logging and
that you execute the following sequence of statements:
CREATE TABLE t
(
id INT NOT NULL,
name VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL,
date DATE NULL
) ENGINE = InnoDB;
START TRANSACTION;
INSERT INTO t VALUES(1, ´apple´, NULL);
UPDATE t SET name = ´pear´, date = ´2009-01-01´ WHERE id = 1;
DELETE FROM t WHERE id = 1;
COMMIT;
By default, mysqlbinlog displays row events encoded as base-64
strings using BINLOG statements. Omitting extraneous lines, the
output for the row events produced by the preceding statement
sequence looks like this:
shell> mysqlbinlog log_file

To see the row events as comments in the form of “pseudo-SQL”
statements, run mysqlbinlog with the --verbose or -v option. The
output will contain lines beginning with ###:
shell> mysqlbinlog -v log_file

Specify --verbose or -v twice to also display data types and some
metadata for each column. The output will contain an additional
comment following each column change:

You can tell mysqlbinlog to suppress the BINLOG statements for
row events by using the --base64-output=DECODE-ROWS option. This
is similar to --base64-output=NEVER but does not exit with an
error if a row event is found. The combination of
--base64-output=DECODE-ROWS and --verbose provides a convenient
way to see row events only as SQL statements:
shell> mysqlbinlog -v --base64-output=DECODE-ROWS log_file
...
# at 218
#080828 15:03:08 server id 1 end_log_pos 258 Write_rows: table id 17 flags: STMT_END_F
### INSERT INTO test.t
### SET
### @1=1
### @2=´apple´
### @3=NULL
...
# at 302
#080828 15:03:08 server id 1 end_log_pos 356 Update_rows: table id 17 flags: STMT_END_F
### UPDATE test.t
### WHERE
### @1=1
### @2=´apple´
### @3=NULL
### SET
### @1=1
### @2=´pear´
### @3=´2009:01:01´
...
# at 400
#080828 15:03:08 server id 1 end_log_pos 442 Delete_rows: table id 17 flags: STMT_END_F
### DELETE FROM test.t
### WHERE
### @1=1
### @2=´pear´
### @3=´2009:01:01´
Note
You should not suppress BINLOG statements if you intend to
re-execute mysqlbinlog output.
The SQL statements produced by --verbose for row events are much
more readable than the corresponding BINLOG statements. However,
they do not correspond exactly to the original SQL statements
that generated the events. The following limitations apply:
• The original column names are lost and replaced by @N, where
N is a column number.
• Character set information is not available in the binary log,
which affects string column display:
• There is no distinction made between corresponding binary
and nonbinary string types (BINARY and CHAR, VARBINARY
and VARCHAR, BLOB and TEXT). The output uses a data type
of STRING for fixed-length strings and VARSTRING for
variable-length strings.
• For multi-byte character sets, the maximum number of
bytes per character is not present in the binary log, so
the length for string types is displayed in bytes rather
than in characters. For example, STRING(4) will be used
as the data type for values from either of these column
types:
CHAR(4) CHARACTER SET latin1
CHAR(2) CHARACTER SET ucs2
• Due to the storage format for events of type
UPDATE_ROWS_EVENT, UPDATE statements are displayed with
the WHERE clause preceding the SET clause.
Proper interpretation of row events requires the information from
the format description event at the beginning of the binary log.
Because mysqlbinlog does not know in advance whether the rest of
the log contains row events, by default it displays the format
description event using a BINLOG statement in the initial part of
the output.
If the binary log is known not to contain any events requiring a
BINLOG statement (that is, no row events), the
--base64-output=NEVER option can be used to prevent this header
from being written.
