pt-stalk

1、名词解释

Collect forensic data about MySQL when problems occur

在问题发生的时候采集现场数据

pt-stalk waits for a trigger condition to occur, then collects data to help diagnose problems. The tool is designed to run as a daemon with root privileges, so that you can diagnose intermittent problems that you cannot observe directly. You can also use it to execute a custom command, or to collect data on demand without waiting for the trigger to occur

 

在一定条件下触发，采集一些监控数据便于分析问题。运行该功能需要有root权限。可以作为一个实时采集的功能，也可以设置触发条件。

2、例子

[root@typhoeus79 mysql_5580]# pt-stalk --collect-tcpdump --function status --variable Threads_connected --threshold 1 -- --user=root --password='c0BsZjR57MgAGOk6IWZAMarVVg0' --socket=./tmp/mysql.sock

2013_12_25_11_12_06 Collect 1 done

采集的数据放在--dest目录下，包含如下文件：

这些数据都是原始数据，我们可以根据这些来分析当时MySQL或者主机是否有异常
