Server Command Options
When you start the mysqld server, you can specify program options using any of the methods described in Section 4.2.3, “Specifying Program Options”. The most common methods are to provide options in an option file or on the command line. However, in most cases it is desirable to make sure that the server uses the same options each time it runs. The best way to ensure this is to list them in an option file. See Section 4.2.3.2, “Using Option Files”.
MySQL Enterprise. For expert advice on setting command options, subscribe to the MySQL Enterprise Monitor. For more information, see http://www.mysql.com/products/enterprise/advisors.html.
mysqld reads options from the [mysqld]
and [server]
groups. mysqld_safe reads options from the [mysqld]
, [server]
, [mysqld_safe]
, and [safe_mysqld]
groups. mysql.server reads options from the [mysqld]
and [mysql.server]
groups.
An embedded MySQL server usually reads options from the [server]
, [embedded]
, and [
groups, where xxxxx
_SERVER]xxxxx
is the name of the
application into which the server is embedded.
mysqld accepts many command options. For a brief summary, execute mysqld --help. To see the full list, use mysqld --verbose --help.
The following list shows some of the most common server options. Additional options are described in other sections:
-
Options that affect security: See Section 5.3.3, “Security-Related mysqld Options”.
-
SSL-related options: See Section 5.5.7.3, “SSL Command Options”.
-
Binary log control options: See Section 5.2.4, “The Binary Log”.
-
Replication-related options: See Section 16.1.3, “Replication and Binary Logging Options and Variables”.
-
Options specific to particular storage engines: See Section 13.5.1, “
MyISAM
Startup Options”, Section 13.6.3, “InnoDB
Startup Options and System Variables”, and Section 17.4.2, “mysqld Command Options for MySQL Cluster”.
You can also set the values of server system variables by using variable names as options, as described at the end of this section.
-
--help
,-?
Command Line Format -?
Config File Format help
Display a short help message and exit. Use both the
--verbose
and--help
options to see the full message. -
Command Line Format --allow-suspicious-udfs
Config File Format allow-suspicious-udfs
Value Set Type boolean
Default FALSE
This option controls whether user-defined functions that have only an
xxx
symbol for the main function can be loaded. By default, the option is off and only UDFs that have at least one auxiliary symbol can be loaded; this prevents attempts at loading functions from shared object files other than those containing legitimate UDFs. See Section 22.3.2.6, “User-Defined Function Security Precautions”. -
Command Line Format --ansi
Config File Format ansi
Use standard (ANSI) SQL syntax instead of MySQL syntax. For more precise control over the server SQL mode, use the
--sql-mode
option instead. See Section 1.7.3, “Running MySQL in ANSI Mode”, and Section 5.1.7, “Server SQL Modes”. -
Command Line Format --basedir=name
Config File Format basedir
Option Sets Variable Yes, basedir
Variable Name basedir

The path to the MySQL installation directory. All paths are usually resolved relative to this directory.
-
Command Line Format --big-tables
Config File Format big-tables
Option Sets Variable Yes, big_tables
Variable Name big-tables
Variable Scope Session Dynamic Variable Yes Value Set Type boolean
Allow large result sets by saving all temporary sets in files. This option prevents most “table full” errors, but also slows down queries for which in-memory tables would suffice. Since MySQL 3.23.2, the server is able to handle large result sets automatically by using memory for small temporary tables and switching to disk tables where necessary.
-
Command Line Format --bind-address=name
Config File Format bind-address
Value Set Type string
Default 0.0.0.0
Range 0.0.0.0-255.255.255.255
The IP address to bind to. Only one address can be selected. If this option is specified multiple times, the last address given is used.
If no address or
0.0.0.0
is specified, the server listens on all interfaces. -

Command Line Format --core-file
Config File Format core-file
Value Set Type boolean
Default TRUE
Write a core file if mysqld dies. The name and location of the core file is system dependent. On Linux, a core file named
core.
is written to the current working directory of the process, which for mysqld is the data directory.pid
pid
represents the process ID of the server process. On Mac OS X, a core file namedcore.
is written to thepid
/cores
directory. On Solaris, use the coreadm command to specify where to write the core file and how to name it.For some systems, to get a core file you must also specify the
--core-file-size
option to mysqld_safe. See Section 4.3.2, “mysqld_safe — MySQL Server Startup Script”. On some systems, such as Solaris, you do not get a core file if you are also using the--user
option. There might be additional restrictions or limitations. For example, it might be necessary to execute ulimit -c unlimited before starting the server. Consult your system documentation. -

Config File Format debug
Variable Name debug
Variable Scope Both Dynamic Variable Yes Value Set Type string
Default 'd:t:o,/tmp/mysqld.trace
If MySQL is configured with
--with-debug
, you can use this option to get a trace file of what mysqld is doing. A typicaldebug_options
string is'd:t:o,
. The default isfile_name
''d:t:i:o,mysqld.trace'
. See MySQL Internals: Porting.As of MySQL 5.1.12, using
--with-debug
to configure MySQL with debugging support enables you to use the--debug="d,parser_debug"
option when you start the server. This causes the Bison parser that is used to process SQL statements to dump a parser trace to the server's standard error output. Typically, this output is written to the error log.This option may be given multiple times. Values that begin with
+
or-
are added to or subtracted from the previous value. For example,--debug=T
--debug=+P
sets the value toP:T
. -

enables delayed key writes for those tables that were created with theDELAY_KEY_WRITE
option.ALL
delays key writes for allMyISAM
tables. See Section 7.5.3, “Tuning Server Parameters”, and Section 13.5.1, “MyISAM
Startup Options”.Note
If you set this variable to
ALL
, you should not useMyISAM
tables from within another program (such as another MySQL server or myisamchk) when the tables are in use. Doing so leads to index corruption. -
Command Line Format --des-key-file=name
Config File Format des-key-file
Read the default DES keys from this file. These keys are used by the
DES_ENCRYPT()
andDES_DECRYPT()
functions. -

Config File Format external-locking
Option Sets Variable Yes, skip_external_locking
Disabled by skip-external-locking
Value Set Type boolean
Default FALSE
Enable external locking (system locking), which is disabled by default as of MySQL 4.0. Note that if you use this option on a system on which
lockd
does not fully work (such as Linux), it is easy for mysqld to deadlock. This option previously was named--enable-locking
.For more information about external locking, including conditions under which it can and cannot be used, see Section 7.3.4, “External Locking”.
-
Command Line Format --flush
Config File Format flush
Variable Name flush
Variable Scope Global Dynamic Variable Yes Value Set Type boolean
Default OFF
Flush (synchronize) all changes to disk after each SQL statement. Normally, MySQL does a write of all changes to disk only after each SQL statement and lets the operating system handle the synchronizing to disk. See Section B.1.4.2, “What to Do If MySQL Keeps Crashing”.
-
Command Line Format --gdb
Config File Format gdb
Value Set Type boolean
Default FALSE

Command Line Format --large-pages
Config File Format large-pages
Option Sets Variable Yes, large_pages
Variable Name large_pages
Variable Scope Global Dynamic Variable No Platform Specific linux Value Set Type (linux) boolean
Default FALSE
Some hardware/operating system architectures support memory pages greater than the default (usually 4KB). The actual implementation of this support depends on the underlying hardware and operating system. Applications that perform a lot of memory accesses may obtain performance improvements by using large pages due to reduced Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) misses.
Currently, MySQL supports only the Linux implementation of large page support (which is called HugeTLB in Linux). See Section 7.5.9, “Enabling Large Page Support”.
--large-pages

value if omitted is 1. To disable this option, use--log-warnings=0
. If the value is greater than 1, aborted connections are written to the error log. See Section B.1.2.11, “Communication Errors and Aborted Connections”.If a slave server was started with
--log-warnings
enabled, the slave prints messages to the error log to provide information about its status, such as the binary log and relay log coordinates where it starts its job, when it is switching to another relay log, when it reconnects after a disconnect, and so forth. -

Command Line Format --memlock
Config File Format memlock
Variable Name locked_in_memory
Variable Scope Global Dynamic Variable No Value Set Type boolean
Default FALSE
Lock the mysqld process in memory. This option might help if you have a problem where the operating system is causing mysqld to swap to disk.
--memlock
works on systems that support themlockall()
system call; this includes Solaris as well as most Linux distributions that use a 2.4 or newer kernel. On Linux systems, you can tell whether or notmlockall()
(and thus this option) is supported by checking to see whether or not it is defined in the systemmman.h
file, like this:shell>
grep mlockall /usr/include/sys/mman.h
If
mlockall()
is supported, you should see in the output of the previous command something like the following:extern int mlockall (int __flags) __THROW;
Important
Using this option requires that you run the server as
root
, which, for reasons of security, is normally not a good idea. See Section 5.3.5, “How to Run MySQL as a Normal User”.You must not try to use this option on a system that does not support the
mlockall()
system call; if you do so, mysqld will very likely crash as soon as you try to start it. -

Config File Format myisam-recover
Value Set Type enumeration
Default OFF
Valid Values DEFAULT
,BACKUP
,FORCE
,QUICK
Set the
MyISAM
storage engine recovery mode. The option value is any combination of the values ofDEFAULT
,BACKUP
,FORCE
, orQUICK
. If you specify multiple values, separate them by commas. Specifying the option with no argument is the same as specifyingDEFAULT
, and specifying with an explicit value of""
disables recovery (same as not giving the option). If recovery is enabled, each time mysqld opens aMyISAM
table, it checks whether the table is marked as crashed or wasn't closed properly. (The last option works only if you are running with external locking disabled.) If this is the case, mysqld runs a check on the table. If the table was corrupted, mysqld attempts to repair it.The following options affect how the repair works.
Option Description DEFAULT
Recovery without backup, forcing, or quick checking. BACKUP
If the data file was changed during recovery, save a backup of the
file astbl_name
.MYD
.tbl_name-datetime
.BAKFORCE
Run recovery even if we would lose more than one row from the .MYD
file.QUICK
Don't check the rows in the table if there aren't any delete blocks. Before the server automatically repairs a table, it writes a note about the repair to the error log. If you want to be able to recover from most problems without user intervention, you should use the options
BACKUP,FORCE
. This forces a repair of a table even if some rows would be deleted, but it keeps the old data file as a backup so that you can later examine what happened. -
Command Line Format --old_passwords
Config File Format old-passwords
Option Sets Variable Yes, old_passwords
Variable Name old_passwords
Variable Scope Both Dynamic Variable Yes Value Set Type boolean
Default FALSE
Force the server to generate short (pre-4.1) password hashes for new passwords. This is useful for compatibility when the server must support older client programs. See Section 5.5.6.3, “Password Hashing in MySQL”.
-
Command Line Format --old-style-user-limits
Config File Format old-style-user-limits
Value Set Type boolean
Default FALSE
Enable old-style user limits. (Before MySQL 5.0.3, account resource limits were counted separately for each host from which a user connected rather than per account row in the
user
table.) See Section 5.5.4, “Limiting Account Resources”. -
Command Line Format --one-thread
Config File Format one-thread
Only use one thread (for debugging under Linux). This option is available only if the server is built with debugging enabled. See MySQL Internals: Porting.
As of MySQL 5.1.17, this option is deprecated; use
--thread_handling=one-thread
instead. -
Command Line Format --open-files-limit=#
Config File Format open-files-limit
Option Sets Variable Yes, open_files_limit
Variable Name open_files_limit
Variable Scope Global Dynamic Variable No Value Set Type numeric
Default 0
Range 0-65535
Changes the number of file descriptors available to mysqld. You should try increasing the value of this option if mysqld gives you the error
Too many open files
. mysqld uses the option value to reserve descriptors withsetrlimit()
. If the requested number of file descriptors cannot be allocated, mysqld writes a warning to the error log.mysqld may attempt to allocate more than the requested number of descriptors (if they are available), using the values of
max_connections
andtable_open_cache
to estimate whether more descriptors will be needed. -
Command Line Format --pid-file=name
Config File Format pid-file
Option Sets Variable Yes, pid_file
Variable Name pid_file
Variable Scope Global Dynamic Variable No Value Set Type filename
The path name of the process ID file. This file is used by other programs such as mysqld_safe to determine the server's process ID.
-
Version Introduced 5.1.18 Command Line Format --plugin-load=plugin_list
Config File Format plugin-load
Value Set Type string
Under normal startup, the server determines which plugins to load by reading the
mysql.plugins
system table. This option enables plugins to be loaded even when--skip-grant-tables
is given (which tells the server not to read system tables). This option also enables plugins to be loaded at startup under configurations when plugins cannot be loaded at runtime. The option was added in MySQL 5.1.18.The option value is a colon-separated list of
values. Eachname
=plugin_library
name
is the name of the plugin, andplugin_library
is the name of the shared library that contains the plugin code. Each library file must be located in the directory named by theplugin_dir
system variable. For example, if plugins namedmyplug1
andmyplug2
have library filesmyplug1.so
andmyplug2.so
, use this option to load them at startup:shell>
mysqld --plugin-load=myplug1=myplug1.so:myplug2=myplug2.so All plugins to load must be named in the same
--plugin-load
option. If multiple--plugin-load
options are given, only the last one is used.The plugins are loaded for a single invocation of mysqld only. After a restart, the plugins are not loaded unless
--plugin-load
is used again. This is in contrast toINSTALL PLUGIN
, which adds an entry to themysql.plugins
table to cause the plugin to be loaded for every normal server startup. -
--port=
,port_num
-P
port_num
Command Line Format --port=#
Config File Format port
Option Sets Variable Yes, port
Variable Name port
Variable Scope Global Dynamic Variable No Value Set Type numeric
Default 3306
The port number to use when listening for TCP/IP connections. The port number must be 1024 or higher unless the server is started by the
root
system user. -
Version Introduced 5.1.5 Command Line Format --port-open-timeout=#
Config File Format port-open-timeout
Value Set Type numeric
Default 0
On some systems, when the server is stopped, the TCP/IP port might not become available immediately. If the server is restarted quickly afterward, its attempt to reopen the port can fail. This option indicates how many seconds the server should wait for the TCP/IP port to become free if it cannot be opened. The default is not to wait. This option was added in MySQL 5.1.5.
-
Command Line Format --safe-mode
Config File Format safe-mode
Deprecated 5.0 Skip some optimization stages.
-
--safe-show-database
(DEPRECATED)Command Line Format --safe-show-database
Config File Format safe-show-database
Variable Name safe_show_database
Variable Scope Global Dynamic Variable Yes Deprecated 4.0.2 Value Set Type boolean
-
Command Line Format --safe-user-create
Config File Format safe-user-create
Value Set Type boolean
Default FALSE
If this option is enabled, a user cannot create new MySQL users by using the
GRANT
statement unless the user has theINSERT
privilege for themysql.user
table or any column in the table. If you want a user to have the ability to create new users that have those privileges that the user has the right to grant, you should grant the user the following privilege:user_name host_name This ensures that the user cannot change any privilege columns directly, but has to use the
GRANT
statement to give privileges to other users. -
Command Line Format --secure-auth
Config File Format secure-auth
Option Sets Variable Yes, secure_auth
Variable Name secure_auth
Variable Scope Global Dynamic Variable Yes Value Set Type boolean
Default FALSE
Disallow authentication by clients that attempt to use accounts that have old (pre-4.1) passwords.
-
Version Introduced 5.1.17 Command Line Format --secure-file-priv
Config File Format secure-file-priv
Option Sets Variable Yes, secure_file_priv
Variable Name secure_file_priv
Variable Scope Global Dynamic Variable No Value Set Type string
This option limits the effect of the
LOAD_FILE()
function and theLOAD DATA
andSELECT ... INTO OUTFILE
statements to work only with files in the specified directory.This option was added in MySQL 5.1.17.
-
Enable shared-memory connections by local clients. This option is available only on Windows.
-
--shared-memory-base-name=
name
The name of shared memory to use for shared-memory connections. This option is available only on Windows. The default name is
MYSQL
. The name is case sensitive. -
Turn off the ability to select and insert at the same time on
MyISAM
tables. (This is to be used only if you think you have found a bug in this feature.) See Section 7.3.3, “Concurrent Inserts”. -
Do not use external locking (system locking). For more information about external locking, including conditions under which it can and cannot be used, see Section 7.3.4, “External Locking”.
External locking has been disabled by default since MySQL 4.0.
-
This option causes the server to start without using the privilege system at all, which gives anyone with access to the server unrestricted access to all databases. You can cause a running server to start using the grant tables again by executing mysqladmin flush-privileges or mysqladmin reload command from a system shell, or by issuing a MySQL
FLUSH PRIVILEGES
statement after connecting to the server. This option also suppresses loading of plugins, user-defined functions (UDFs), and, beginning with MySQL 5.1.17, scheduled events. To cause plugins to be loaded anyway, use the--plugin-load
option.--skip-grant-tables
is unavailable if MySQL was configured with the--disable-grant-options
option. See Section 2.10.2, “Typical configure Options”. -
Do not use the internal host name cache for faster name-to-IP resolution. Instead, query the DNS server every time a client connects. See Section 7.5.11, “How MySQL Uses DNS”.
-
Disable the
InnoDB
storage engine. This saves memory and disk space and might speed up some operations. Do not use this option if you requireInnoDB
tables. -
Do not resolve host names when checking client connections. Use only IP numbers. If you use this option, all
Host
column values in the grant tables must be IP numbers orlocalhost
. See Section 7.5.11, “How MySQL Uses DNS”. -
Don't listen for TCP/IP connections at all. All interaction with mysqld must be made via named pipes or shared memory (on Windows) or Unix socket files (on Unix). This option is highly recommended for systems where only local clients are allowed. See Section 7.5.11, “How MySQL Uses DNS”.
-
Options that begin with
--ssl
specify whether to allow clients to connect via SSL and indicate where to find SSL keys and certificates. See Section 5.5.7.3, “SSL Command Options”. -
Command Line Format --standalone
Config File Format standalone
Platform Specific windows Available on Windows NT-based systems only; instructs the MySQL server not to run as a service.
-
--symbolic-links
,--skip-symbolic-links
Command Line Format --symbolic-links
Config File Format symbolic-links
Enable or disable symbolic link support. This option has different effects on Windows and Unix:
-
On Windows, enabling symbolic links allows you to establish a symbolic link to a database directory by creating a
file that contains the path to the real directory. See Section 7.6.1.3, “Using Symbolic Links for Databases on Windows”.db_name
.sym -
On Unix, enabling symbolic links means that you can link a
MyISAM
index file or data file to another directory with theINDEX DIRECTORY
orDATA DIRECTORY
options of theCREATE TABLE
statement. If you delete or rename the table, the files that its symbolic links point to also are deleted or renamed. See Section 7.6.1.2, “Using Symbolic Links for Tables on Unix”.
-
-
Command Line Format --skip-safe-malloc
Config File Format skip-safemalloc
If MySQL is configured with
--with-debug=full
, all MySQL programs check for memory overruns during each memory allocation and memory freeing operation. This checking is very slow, so for the server you can avoid it when you don't need it by using the--skip-safemalloc
option. -
Command Line Format --skip-show-database
Config File Format skip-show-database
Option Sets Variable Yes, skip_show_database
Variable Name skip_show_database
Variable Scope Global Dynamic Variable No With this option, the
SHOW DATABASES
statement is allowed only to users who have theSHOW DATABASES
privilege, and the statement displays all database names. Without this option,SHOW DATABASES
is allowed to all users, but displays each database name only if the user has theSHOW DATABASES
privilege or some privilege for the database. Note that any global privilege is considered a privilege for the database. -
Command Line Format --skip-stack-trace
Config File Format skip-stack-trace
Don't write stack traces. This option is useful when you are running mysqld under a debugger. On some systems, you also must use this option to get a core file. See MySQL Internals: Porting.
-
Version Deprecated 5.1.29 Command Line Format --skip-thread-priority
Config File Format skip-thread-priority
Deprecated 5.1.29 Disable using thread priorities for faster response time. This option is deprecated as of MySQL 5.1.29 and is removed in MySQL 6.0.
-
Version Introduced 5.1.12 Command Line Format --slow-query-log
5.1.29 Config File Format slow-query-log
5.1.29 Option Sets Variable Yes, slow_query_log
Variable Name slow_query_log
Variable Scope Global Dynamic Variable Yes Value Set Type boolean
Default OFF
Specify the initial slow query log state. With no argument or an argument of 1, the
--slow-query-log
option enables the log. If omitted or given with an argument of 0, the option disables the log. This option was added in MySQL 5.1.12. -
Command Line Format --socket=name
Config File Format socket
Option Sets Variable Yes, socket
Variable Name socket
Variable Scope Global Dynamic Variable No Value Set Type filename
Default /tmp/mysql.sock
On Unix, this option specifies the Unix socket file to use when listening for local connections. The default value is
/tmp/mysql.sock
. On Windows, the option specifies the pipe name to use when listening for local connections that use a named pipe. The default value isMySQL
(not case sensitive). -

-
Version Introduced 5.1.8 Command Line Format --sysdate-is-now
Config File Format sysdate-is-now
Value Set Type boolean
Default FALSE
SYSDATE()
by default returns the time at which it executes, not the time at which the statement in which it occurs begins executing. This differs from the behavior ofNOW()
. This option causesSYSDATE()
to be an alias forNOW()
. For information about the implications for binary logging and replication, see the description forSYSDATE()
in Section 11.6, “Date and Time Functions” and forSET TIMESTAMP
in Section 5.1.4, “Session System Variables”.This option was added in MySQL 5.1.8.
-
--tc-heuristic-recover={COMMIT|ROLLBACK}
Command Line Format --tc-heuristic-recover=name
Config File Format tc-heuristic-recover
Value Set Type enumeration
Valid Values COMMIT
,RECOVER
The type of decision to use in the heuristic recovery process. Currently, this option is unused.
-
Command Line Format --temp-pool
Config File Format temp-pool
Value Set Type boolean
Default TRUE
This option causes most temporary files created by the server to use a small set of names, rather than a unique name for each new file. This works around a problem in the Linux kernel dealing with creating many new files with different names. With the old behavior, Linux seems to “leak” memory, because it is being allocated to the directory entry cache rather than to the disk cache. As of MySQL 5.1.31, this option is ignored except on Linux.
-
Command Line Format --transaction-isolation=name
Config File Format transaction-isolation
Value Set Type enumeration
Valid Values READ-UNCOMMITTED
,READ-COMMITTED
,REPEATABLE-READ
,SERIALIZABLE
Sets the default transaction isolation level. The
level
value can beREAD-UNCOMMITTED
,READ-COMMITTED
,REPEATABLE-READ
, orSERIALIZABLE
. See Section 12.4.6, “SET TRANSACTION
Syntax”. -
--tmpdir=
,path
-t
path
Command Line Format --tmpdir=name
Config File Format tmpdir
Option Sets Variable Yes, tmpdir
Variable Name tmpdir
Variable Scope Global Dynamic Variable No Value Set Type filename
The path of the directory to use for creating temporary files. It might be useful if your default
/tmp
directory resides on a partition that is too small to hold temporary tables. This option accepts several paths that are used in round-robin fashion. Paths should be separated by colon characters (“:
”) on Unix and semicolon characters (“;
”) on Windows, NetWare, and OS/2. If the MySQL server is acting as a replication slave, you should not set--tmpdir
to point to a directory on a memory-based file system or to a directory that is cleared when the server host restarts. For more information about the storage location of temporary files, see Section B.1.4.4, “Where MySQL Stores Temporary Files”. A replication slave needs some of its temporary files to survive a machine restart so that it can replicate temporary tables orLOAD DATA INFILE
operations. If files in the temporary file directory are lost when the server restarts, replication fails. -
--user={
,user_name
|user_id
}-u {
user_name
|user_id
}Command Line Format --user=name
Config File Format user
Value Set Type string
Run the mysqld server as the user having the name
user_name
or the numeric user IDuser_id
. (“User” in this context refers to a system login account, not a MySQL user listed in the grant tables.)This option is mandatory when starting mysqld as
root
. The server changes its user ID during its startup sequence, causing it to run as that particular user rather than asroot
. See Section 5.3.1, “General Security Guidelines”.To avoid a possible security hole where a user adds a
--user=root
option to amy.cnf
file (thus causing the server to run asroot
), mysqld uses only the first--user
option specified and produces a warning if there are multiple--user
options. Options in/etc/my.cnf
and$MYSQL_HOME/my.cnf
are processed before command-line options, so it is recommended that you put a--user
option in/etc/my.cnf
and specify a value other thanroot
. The option in/etc/my.cnf
is found before any other--user
options, which ensures that the server runs as a user other thanroot
, and that a warning results if any other--user
option is found. -
Use this option with the
--help
option for detailed help. -
--version
,-V
Display version information and exit.
You can assign a value to a server system variable by using an option of the
form --
. For example, var_name
=value
--key_buffer_size=32M
sets the key_buffer_size
variable to a value of 32MB.
Note that when you assign a value to a variable, MySQL might automatically correct the value to stay within a given range, or adjust the value to the closest allowable value if only certain values are allowed.
If you want to restrict the maximum value to which a variable can be set at
runtime with SET
, you can define this by using the --maximum-
command-line option. var_name
=value
You can change the values of most system variables for a running server with
the SET
statement. See Section 12.5.4, “SET
Syntax”.
Section 5.1.3, “Server System Variables”, provides a full description for all variables, and additional information for setting them at server startup and runtime. Section 7.5.3, “Tuning Server Parameters”, includes information on optimizing the server by tuning system variables
