Starts the MySQL database server.
Usage: mysqld [OPTIONS]
Default options are read from the following files in the given order:
/etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf /usr/local/mysql/etc/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf
The following groups are read: mysqld server mysqld-5.6
The following options may be given as the first argument:
--print-defaults Print the program argument list and exit.
--no-defaults Don't read default options from any option file,
except for login file.
--defaults-file=# Only read default options from the given file #.
--defaults-extra-file=# Read this file after the global files are read.
--defaults-group-suffix=#
Also read groups with concat(group, suffix)
--login-path=# Read this path from the login file.
--abort-slave-event-count=#
Option used by mysql-test for debugging and testing of
replication.
--allow-suspicious-udfs
Allows use of UDFs consisting of only one symbol xxx()
without corresponding xxx_init() or xxx_deinit(). That
also means that one can load any function from any
library, for example exit() from libc.so
-a, --ansi Use ANSI SQL syntax instead of MySQL syntax. This mode
will also set transaction isolation level 'serializable'.
--archive[=name] Enable or disable ARCHIVE plugin. Possible values are ON,
OFF, FORCE (don't start if the plugin fails to load).
--auto-increment-increment[=#]
Auto-increment columns are incremented by this
--auto-increment-offset[=#]
Offset added to Auto-increment columns. Used when
auto-increment-increment != 1
--autocommit Set default value for autocommit (0 or 1)
(Defaults to on; use --skip-autocommit to disable.)
--automatic-sp-privileges
Creating and dropping stored procedures alters ACLs
(Defaults to on; use --skip-automatic-sp-privileges to disable.)
--back-log=# The number of outstanding connection requests MySQL can
have. This comes into play when the main MySQL thread
gets very many connection requests in a very short time
-b, --basedir=name Path to installation directory. All paths are usually
resolved relative to this
--big-tables Allow big result sets by saving all temporary sets on
file (Solves most 'table full' errors)
--bind-address=name IP address to bind to.
--binlog-cache-size=#
The size of the transactional cache for updates to
transactional engines for the binary log. If you often
use transactions containing many statements, you can
increase this to get more performance
--binlog-checksum=name
Type of BINLOG_CHECKSUM_ALG. Include checksum for log
events in the binary log. Possible values are NONE and
CRC32; default is CRC32.
--binlog-direct-non-transactional-updates
Causes updates to non-transactional engines using
statement format to be written directly to binary log.
Before using this option make sure that there are no
dependencies between transactional and non-transactional
tables such as in the statement INSERT INTO t_myisam
SELECT * FROM t_innodb; otherwise, slaves may diverge
from the master.
--binlog-do-db=name Tells the master it should log updates for the specified
database, and exclude all others not explicitly
mentioned.
--binlog-format=name
What form of binary logging the master will use: either
ROW for row-based binary logging, STATEMENT for
statement-based binary logging, or MIXED. MIXED is
statement-based binary logging except for those
statements where only row-based is correct: those which
involve user-defined functions (i.e. UDFs) or the UUID()
function; for those, row-based binary logging is
automatically used. If NDBCLUSTER is enabled and
binlog-format is MIXED, the format switches to row-based
and back implicitly per each query accessing an
NDBCLUSTER table
--binlog-ignore-db=name
Tells the master that updates to the given database
should not be logged to the binary log.
--binlog-max-flush-queue-time=#
The maximum time that the binary log group commit will
keep reading transactions before it flush the
transactions to the binary log (and optionally sync,
depending on the value of sync_binlog).
--binlog-order-commits
Issue internal commit calls in the same order as
transactions are written to the binary log. Default is to
order commits.
(Defaults to on; use --skip-binlog-order-commits to disable.)
--binlog-row-event-max-size=#
The maximum size of a row-based binary log event in
bytes. Rows will be grouped into events smaller than this
size if possible. The value has to be a multiple of 256.
--binlog-row-image=name
Controls whether rows should be logged in 'FULL',
'NOBLOB' or 'MINIMAL' formats. 'FULL', means that all
columns in the before and after image are logged.
'NOBLOB', means that mysqld avoids logging blob columns
whenever possible (eg, blob column was not changed or is
not part of primary key). 'MINIMAL', means that a PK
equivalent (PK columns or full row if there is no PK in
the table) is logged in the before image, and only
changed columns are logged in the after image. (Default:
FULL).
--binlog-rows-query-log-events
Allow writing of Rows_query_log events into binary log.
--binlog-stmt-cache-size=#
The size of the statement cache for updates to
non-transactional engines for the binary log. If you
often use statements updating a great number of rows, you
can increase this to get more performance

--innodb-table-locks
Enable InnoDB locking in LOCK TABLES
(Defaults to on; use --skip-innodb-table-locks to disable.)
--innodb-thread-concurrency=#
Helps in performance tuning in heavily concurrent
environments. Sets the maximum number of threads allowed
inside InnoDB. Value 0 will disable the thread
throttling.
--innodb-thread-sleep-delay=#
Time of innodb thread sleeping before joining InnoDB
queue (usec). Value 0 disable a sleep
--innodb-trx[=name] Enable or disable INNODB_TRX plugin. Possible values are
ON, OFF, FORCE (don't start if the plugin fails to load).
--innodb-undo-directory=name
Directory where undo tablespace files live, this path can
be absolute.
--innodb-undo-logs[=#]
Number of undo logs to use.
--innodb-undo-tablespaces=#
Number of undo tablespaces to use.
--innodb-use-native-aio
Use native AIO if supported on this platform.
(Defaults to on; use --skip-innodb-use-native-aio to disable.)
--innodb-use-sys-malloc
DEPRECATED. This option may be removed in future
releases, together with the InnoDB's internal memory
allocator. Use OS memory allocator instead of InnoDB's
internal memory allocator
(Defaults to on; use --skip-innodb-use-sys-malloc to disable.)
--innodb-write-io-threads=#
Number of background write I/O threads in InnoDB.
--interactive-timeout=#
The number of seconds the server waits for activity on an
interactive connection before closing it
--join-buffer-size=#
The size of the buffer that is used for full joins
--keep-files-on-create
Don't overwrite stale .MYD and .MYI even if no directory
is specified
--key-buffer-size=# The size of the buffer used for index blocks for MyISAM
tables. Increase this to get better index handling (for
all reads and multiple writes) to as much as you can
afford
--key-cache-age-threshold=#
This characterizes the number of hits a hot block has to
be untouched until it is considered aged enough to be
downgraded to a warm block. This specifies the percentage
ratio of that number of hits to the total number of
blocks in key cache
--key-cache-block-size=#
The default size of key cache blocks
--key-cache-division-limit=#
The minimum percentage of warm blocks in key cache
-L, --language=name Client error messages in given language. May be given as
a full path. Deprecated. Use --lc-messages-dir instead.
--large-pages Enable support for large pages
--lc-messages=name Set the language used for the error messages.
--lc-messages-dir=name
Directory where error messages are
--lc-time-names=name
Set the language used for the month names and the days of
the week.
--local-infile Enable LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE
(Defaults to on; use --skip-local-infile to disable.)
--lock-wait-timeout=#
Timeout in seconds to wait for a lock before returning an
error.
--log-bin[=name] Log update queries in binary format. Optional (but
strongly recommended to avoid replication problems if
server's hostname changes) argument should be the chosen
location for the binary log files.
--log-bin-index=name
File that holds the names for binary log files.
--log-bin-trust-function-creators
If set to FALSE (the default), then when --log-bin is
used, creation of a stored function (or trigger) is
allowed only to users having the SUPER privilege and only
if this stored function (trigger) may not break binary
logging. Note that if ALL connections to this server
ALWAYS use row-based binary logging, the security issues
do not exist and the binary logging cannot break, so you
can safely set this to TRUE
--log-bin-use-v1-row-events
If equal to 1 then version 1 row events are written to a
row based binary log. If equal to 0, then the latest
version of events are written. This option is useful
during some upgrades.
--log-error[=name] Error log file
--log-isam[=name] Log all MyISAM changes to file.
--log-output=name Syntax: log-output=value[,value...], where "value" could
be TABLE, FILE or NONE
--log-queries-not-using-indexes
Log queries that are executed without benefit of any
index to the slow log if it is open
--log-raw Log to general log before any rewriting of the query. For
use in debugging, not production as sensitive information
may be logged.
--log-short-format Don't log extra information to update and slow-query
logs.
--log-slave-updates Tells the slave to log the updates from the slave thread
to the binary log. You will need to turn it on if you
plan to daisy-chain the slaves
--log-slow-admin-statements
Log slow OPTIMIZE, ANALYZE, ALTER and other
administrative statements to the slow log if it is open.
--log-slow-slave-statements
Log slow statements executed by slave thread to the slow
log if it is open.
--log-tc=name Path to transaction coordinator log (used for
transactions that affect more than one storage engine,
when binary log is disabled).
--log-tc-size=# Size of transaction coordinator log.
--log-throttle-queries-not-using-indexes[=#]
Log at most this many 'not using index' warnings per
minute to the slow log. Any further warnings will be
condensed into a single summary line. A value of 0
disables throttling. Option has no effect unless
--log_queries_not_using_indexes is set.
