Standard Commit Loop

The --commit flag should be included for an interactive run. The user is first asked whether the configuration should be saved; there is an option to print the generated config to console.

If the configuration is read, the user is prompted for the same question.

If the configuration is saved, the user is prompted to restart MySQL; there is an option to schedule the restart using bash’s at program.

innodb-optimize --commit

Standard Loop

Available Arguments

• file: Where the MySQL configuration file is located. Defaults to /etc/mysql/my.cnf.

• percent: Determines what percentage of the total memory will be devoted to InnoDB engine usage. Defaults to 75%.

• memory: Allows the user to override the total memory amount (i.e. a fixed amount is already pre-allocated which is not easily accounted for in percentages). Only allows for kilobyte unit.

• commit: Is required to start the loop which will commit the changes. Without it, the program only outputs the config to standard out to allow for piping/redirecting the output as needed.
