SHOW REPLICA STATUS

Syntax

SHOW SLAVE ["connection_name"] STATUS [FOR CHANNEL "connection_name"]
SHOW REPLICA ["connection_name"] STATUS [FOR CHANNEL "connection_name"] -- From MariaDB 10.5.1

or

SHOW ALL SLAVES STATUS
SHOW ALL REPLICAS STATUS -- From MariaDB 10.5.1

Description

This statement is to be run on a replica and provides status information on essential parameters of the replica threads.

This statement requires the SUPER privilege, the REPLICATION_CLIENT privilege, or, from MariaDB 10.5.2, the REPLICATION SLAVE ADMIN privilege, or, from MariaDB 10.5.9, the REPLICA MONITOR privilege.

Multi-Source

The ALL and "connection_name" options allow you to connect to many primaries at the same time.

ALL SLAVES (or ALL REPLICAS from MariaDB 10.5.1) gives you a list of all connections to the primary nodes.

The rows will be sorted according to Connection_name.

If you specify a connection_name, you only get the information about that connection. If connection_name is not used, then the name set by default_master_connection is used. If the connection name doesn't exist you will get an error: There is no master connection for 'xxx'.

MariaDB starting with 10.7.0

The FOR CHANNEL keyword was added for MySQL compatibility. This is identical to using the channel_name directly after SHOW SLAVE.

Column Descriptions

The order in which the columns appear depends on the MariaDB version. This means that extracting a column value is best done by comparing the field name instead of using a fixed offset into the row.

MariaDB starting with 11.6.0

These columns can also be viewed/extracted from the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SLAVE_STATUS table

NameDescription
Connection_nameName of the primary connection. Returned with SHOW ALL SLAVES STATUS (or SHOW ALL REPLICAS STATUS from MariaDB 10.5.1) only.

Relay_Master_Log_FileName of the primary binary log file that contains the most recent event executed by the SQL thread.
Slave_IO_RunningWhether the replica I/O thread is running and connected (Yes), running but not connected to a primary (Connecting) or not running (No).
Slave_SQL_RunningWhether or not the SQL thread is running.
Replicate_Rewrite_DBDatabases specified for replicating and rewriting with the replicate_rewrite_db option. Added in MariaDB 10.11
Replicate_Do_DBDatabases specified for replicating with the replicate_do_db option.
Replicate_Ignore_DBDatabases specified for ignoring with the replicate_ignore_db option.
Replicate_Do_TableTables specified for replicating with the replicate_do_table option.

Replicate_Wild_Ignore_TableTables specified for ignoring with the replicate_wild_ignore_table option.
Last_ErrnoAlias for Last_SQL_Errno (see below)
Last ErrorAlias for Last_SQL_Error (see below)
Skip_CounterNumber of events that a replica skips from the master, as recorded in the sql_slave_skip_counter system variable.
Exec_Master_Log_PosPosition up to which the SQL thread has processed in the current master binary log file. Can be used to start a new replica from a current replica with the CHANGE MASTER TO ... MASTER_LOG_POS option.
Relay_Log_SpaceTotal size of all relay log files combined.
Until_ConditionOne of four possible values: None, Master, Relay, or Gtid, depending on the respective START SLAVE UNTIL condition.
Until_Log_FileThe MASTER_LOG_FILE value of the START SLAVE UNTIL condition.

Master_SSL_CertThe MASTER_SSL_CERT option of the CHANGE MASTER TO statement.
Master_SSL_CipherThe MASTER_SSL_CIPHER option of the CHANGE MASTER TO statement.
Master_SSL_KeyThe MASTER_SSL_KEY option of the CHANGE MASTER TO statement.
Seconds_Behind_MasterDifference between the timestamp logged on the master for the event that the replica is currently processing, and the current timestamp on the replica. Zero if the replica is not currently processing an event. With serial replication, seconds_behind_master is updated when the SQL thread begins executing a transaction. With parallel replication, seconds_behind_master is updated only after transactions commit. Starting in MariaDB 10.3.38, 10.4.28, 10.5.19, 10.6.12, 10.8.7, 10.9.5, 10.10.3, and 10.11.2, an exception is drawn on the parallel replica to additionally update seconds_behind_master when the first transaction received after idling is queued to a worker for execution, to provide a reliable initial value for the duration until a transaction commits. Additional behaviors to be aware of are as follows: 1) Seconds_Behind_Master will update for ignored events, e.g. those skipped due to sql_slave_skip_counter. 2) On the serial replica, transactions with prior timestamps can update Seconds_Behind_Master such that it can go backwards, though this is not true for the parallel replica. 3) When configured with MASTER_DELAY, as a replicated transaction begins executing (i.e. on a serial or post-idle parallel replica), Seconds_Behind_Master will update before delaying, and while delaying occurs will grow to encompass the configured value. 4) There is a known issue, tracked by MDEV-17516, such that Seconds_Behind_Master will initially present as 0 on replica restart until a replicated transaction begins executing, even if the last replica session was lagging behind when stopped.
Master_SSL_Verify_Server_CertThe MASTER_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT option of the CHANGE MASTER TO statement.
Last_IO_ErrnoError code of the most recent error that caused the I/O thread to stop (also recorded in the replica's error log). 0 means no error. RESET SLAVE or RESET MASTER will reset this value.
Last_IO_ErrorError message of the most recent error that caused the I/O thread to stop (also recorded in the replica's error log). An empty string means no error. RESET SLAVE or RESET MASTER will reset this value.
Last_SQL_ErrnoError code of the most recent error that caused the SQL thread to stop (also recorded in the replica's error log). 0 means no error. RESET SLAVE or RESET MASTER will reset this value.
Last_SQL_ErrorError message of the most recent error that caused the SQL thread to stop (also recorded in the replica's error log). An empty string means no error. RESET SLAVE or RESET MASTER will reset this value.
Replicate_Ignore_Server_IdsList of server_ids that are currently being ignored for replication purposes, or an empty string for none, as specified in the IGNORE_SERVER_IDS option of the CHANGE MASTER TO statement.
Master_Server_IdThe master's server_id value.
Master_SSL_CrlThe MASTER_SSL_CRL option of the CHANGE MASTER TO statement.
Master_SSL_CrlpathThe MASTER_SSL_CRLPATH option of the CHANGE MASTER TO statement.
Using_GtidWhether or not global transaction ID's are being used for replication (can be No, Slave_Pos, or Current_Pos).
Gtid_IO_PosCurrent global transaction ID value.
Retried_transactionsNumber of retried transactions for this connection. Returned with SHOW ALL SLAVES STATUS only.
Max_relay_log_sizeMax relay log size for this connection. Returned with SHOW ALL SLAVES STATUS only.
Executed_log_entriesHow many log entries the replica has executed. Returned with SHOW ALL SLAVES STATUS only.
Slave_received_heartbeatsHow many heartbeats we have got from the master. Returned with SHOW ALL SLAVES STATUS only.
Slave_heartbeat_periodHow often to request a heartbeat packet from the master (in seconds). Returned with SHOW ALL SLAVES STATUS only.
Gtid_Slave_PosGTID of the last event group replicated on a replica server, for each replication domain, as stored in the gtid_slave_pos system variable. Returned with SHOW ALL SLAVES STATUS only.
SQL_DelayValue specified by MASTER_DELAY in CHANGE MASTER (or 0 if none).
SQL_Remaining_DelayWhen the replica is delaying the execution of an event due to MASTER_DELAY, this is the number of seconds of delay remaining before the event will be applied. Otherwise, the value is NULL.
Slave_SQL_Running_StateThe state of the SQL driver threads, same as in SHOW PROCESSLIST. When the replica is delaying the execution of an event due to MASTER_DELAY, this field displays: "Waiting until MASTER_DELAY seconds after master executed event".
Slave_DDL_GroupsThis status variable counts the occurrence of DDL statements. This is a replica-side counter for optimistic parallel replication.
Slave_Non_Transactional_GroupsThis status variable counts the occurrence of non-transactional event groups. This is a replica-side counter for optimistic parallel replication.
Slave_Transactional_GroupsThis status variable counts the occurrence of transactional event groups. This is a replica-side counter for optimistic parallel replication.
Replicate_Rewrite_DBValue of configured replicate_rewrite_db system variable/option.
Retried_transactionsThe number of times that replicating transactions have been retried due to temporary errors (e.g. deadlocks in parallel replication).
Max_relay_log_sizeMaximum size of the relay log (configured by variable max_relay_log_size).
Executed_log_entriesNumber of binary log events that have been executed, irrespective of error outcome (i.e. if the event execution results in an error, this number will still increase).
Slave_received_heartbeatsNumber of Heartbeat Log Events that the slave has received. Note this counter does not reset when the slave is restarted; only when a new CHANGE MASTER command has executed.
Slave_heartbeat_periodConfigured (by CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HEARTBEAT_PERIOD) interval in seconds between replication heartbeats.
Gtid_Slave_PosThe value of the global variable gtid_slave_pos, i.e. the GTID of the last transaction applied to the database by the server's replica threads for each replication domain.
Master_last_event_timeTimestamp of the last event read from the primary by the IO thread. NULL until the replica has started and the replica has read one query event from the primary that changes data. From MariaDB 11.6.
Slave_last_event_timePrimary timestamp of the last event committed on the replica. NULL until the replica has started and the replica has read one query event from the primary that changes data. From MariaDB 11.6.
Master_Slave_time_diffThe difference of the above two timestamps. NULL until the replica has started and the replica has read one query event from the primary that changes data. From MariaDB 11.6.
