To perform an in-place upgrade:
Review the changes described inSection 2.11.1.1, “Changes Affecting Upgrades to MySQL 5.6”for steps to be performed before upgrading.
If you useInnoDB, configure MySQL to perform a slow shutdown by settinginnodb_fast_shutdownto0. For example:
mysql -u root -p --execute="SET GLOBAL innodb_fast_shutdown=0"
With a slow shutdown,InnoDBperforms a full purge and change buffer merge before shutting down, which ensures that data files are fully prepared in case of file format differences between releases.
Shut down the old MySQL server. For example:
mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown
Upgrade the MySQL binaries or packages in place (replace the old binaries or packages with the new ones).
Start the MySQL 5.6 server, using the existing data directory. For example:
mysqld_safe --user=mysql --datadir=/path/to/existing-datadir
Runmysql_upgrade. For example:
mysql_upgrade -u root -p
mysql_upgradeexamines all tables in all databases for incompatibilities with the current version of MySQL.mysql_upgradealso upgrades themysqlsystem database so that you can take advantage of new privileges or capabilities.
Note
mysql_upgradeshould not be used when the server is running with--gtid-mode=ON. SeeGTID mode and mysql_upgradefor more information.
mysql_upgradedoes not upgrade the contents of the help tables. For upgrade instructions, seeSection 5.1.10, “Server-Side Help”.
Shut down and restart the MySQL server to ensure that any changes made to the system tables take effect. For example:
mysqladmin -u root -p shutdownmysqld_safe --user=mysql --datadir=/path/to/existing-datadir
This section describes how to perform alogical upgrade. ReviewBefore you Beginbefore proceeding.
To perform a logical upgrade:
Review the changes described inSection 2.11.1.1, “Changes Affecting Upgrades to MySQL 5.6”for steps to be performed before upgrading.
Export your existing data from the previous MySQL version:
mysqldump -u root -p
--add-drop-table --routines --events
--all-databases --force > data-for-upgrade.sql #mysql备份脚本
Note
Use the--routinesand--eventsoptions withmysqldump(as shown above) if your databases include stored programs. The--all-databasesoption includes all databases in the dump, including themysqldatabase that holds the system tables.
Shut down the old MySQL server. For example:
mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown
Install MySQL 5.6. For installation instructions, seeChapter 2,Installing and Upgrading MySQL.
Initialize a new data directory, as described atSection 2.10.1, “Initializing the Data Directory”. For example:
scripts/mysql_install_db --user=mysql --datadir=/path/to/5.6-datadir
Start the MySQL 5.6 server, using the new data directory. For example:
mysqld_safe --user=mysql --datadir=/path/to/5.6-datadir
Load the previously created dump file into the new MySQL server. For example:
mysql -u root -p --force < data-for-upgrade.sql
Runmysql_upgrade. For example:
mysql_upgrade -u root -p
