同大多数关系型数据库一样。日志文件是MySQL数据库的重要组成部分。MySQL有几种不同的日志文件。通常包含错误日志文件，二进制日志，通用日志。慢查询日志。等等。这些日志能够帮助我们定位mysqld内部发生的事件。数据库性能故障，记录数据的变更历史。用户恢复数据库等等。本文主要描写叙述通用查询日志。
1、MySQL日志文件系统的组成
a、错误日志：记录启动、运行或停止mysqld时出现的问题。
b、通用日志：记录建立的client连接和运行的语句。
c、更新日志：记录更改数据的语句。该日志在MySQL 5.1中已不再使用。
d、二进制日志：记录全部更改数据的语句。还用于复制。
e、慢查询日志：记录全部运行时间超过long_query_time秒的全部查询或不使用索引的查询。
f、Innodb日志：innodb redo log
缺省情况下，全部日志创建于mysqld数据文件夹中。
能够通过刷新日志，来强制mysqld来关闭和又一次打开日志文件（或者在某些情况下切换到一个新的日志）。
当你运行一个FLUSH LOGS语句或运行mysqladmin flush-logs或mysqladmin refresh时，则日志被老化。
对于存在MySQL复制的情形下。从复制server将维护很多其它日志文件，被称为接替日志。
2、慢查询日志
慢查询日志是将mysqlserver中影响数据库性能的相关SQL语句记录到日志文件，通过对这些特殊的SQL语句分析。改进以达到提高数据库性能的目的。
通过使用--slow_query_log[={0|1}]选项来启用慢查询日志。全部运行时间超过long_query_time秒的SQL语句都会被记录到慢查询日志。
缺省情况下hostname-slow.log为慢查询日志文件安名，存放到数据文件夹，同一时候缺省情况下未开启慢查询日志。
缺省情况下数据库相关管理型SQL(比方OPTIMIZE TABLE、ANALYZE TABLE和ALTER TABLE)不会被记录到日志。
对于管理型SQL能够通过--log-slow-admin-statements开启记录管理型慢SQL。
mysqld在语句运行完而且全部锁释放后记入慢查询日志。记录顺序能够与运行顺序不同样。获得初使表锁定的时间不算作运行时间。
能够使用mysqldumpslow命令获得日志中显示的查询摘要来处理慢查询日志。
用查询缓存处理的查询不加到慢查询日志中。表有零行或一行而不能从索引中受益的查询也不写入慢查询日志。
MySQLserver按下面顺序记录SQL是否写入到慢查询日志
a. The query must either not be an administrative statement, or --log-slow-adminstatements must have been specified.
b. The query must have taken at least long_query_time seconds, or log_queries_not_using_indexes must be enabled and the query used no indexes for row lookups.
c. The query must have examined at least min_examined_row_limit rows.
d. The query must not be suppressed according to the log_throttle_queries_not_using_indexes setting.
3、慢查询日志演示
long_query_time ： 设定慢查询的阀值，超出次设定值的SQL即被记录到慢查询日志，缺省值为10s
slow_query_log ： 指定是否开启慢查询日志
log_slow_queries ： 指定是否开启慢查询日志(该參数要被slow_query_log代替，做兼容性保留)
slow_query_log_file ： 指定慢日志文件存放位置，能够为空，系统会给一个缺省的文件host_name-slow.log
min_examined_row_limit：查询检查返回少于该參数指定行的SQL不被记录到慢查询日志
log_queries_not_using_indexes: 不使用索引的慢查询日志是否记录到索引

SET timestamp=1412432188;
select count(*) from tb_slow; --此次查询时间为0.199840，被记录的原因是由于没有走索引，由于表本身没有索引4、格式化慢查询日志
结构化慢查询日志就是把慢查询日志中的重要信息依照便于阅读以及依照特定的排序方式来提取SQL。这样的方式有点相似于Oracle中有个tkprof来格式化oracle的trace文件。 对于前面的慢查询日志我们使用mysqldumpslow来提取例如以下： suse11b:~ # mysqldumpslow -s at,al /var/lib/mysql/suse11b-slow.log Reading mysql slow query log from /var/lib/mysql/suse11b-slow.log Count: 4 Time=16.87s (67s) Lock=0.00s (0s) Rows=0.0 (0), root[root]@localhost insert into tb_slow select * from tb_slow Count: 1 Time=0.20s (0s) Lock=0.00s (0s) Rows=1.0 (1), root[root]@localhost select count(*) from tb_slow Count: 1 Time=1.57s (1s) Lock=0.00s (0s) Rows=83.0 (83), root[root]@localhost select table_schema,table_name,count(*) from tb_slow group by table_schema,table_name order by N,N #下面是依照最大耗用时间排最后。仅仅显示2条的方式格式化日志文件 suse11b:~ # mysqldumpslow -r -t 2 /var/lib/mysql/suse11b-slow.log Reading mysql slow query log from /var/lib/mysql/suse11b-slow.log Count: 1 Time=1.57s (1s) Lock=0.00s (0s) Rows=83.0 (83), root[root]@localhost select table_schema,table_name,count(*) from tb_slow group by table_schema,table_name order by N,N Count: 4 Time=16.87s (67s) Lock=0.00s (0s) Rows=0.0 (0), root[root]@localhost insert into tb_slow select * from tb_slow #获取mysqldumpslow的帮助信息 suse11b:~ # mysqldumpslow --help Usage: mysqldumpslow [ OPTS... ] [ LOGS... ] Parse and summarize the MySQL slow query log. Options are --verbose verbose --debug debug --help write this text to standard output -v verbose -d debug -s ORDER what to sort by (al, at, ar, c, l, r, t), 'at' is default al: average lock time ar: average rows sent at: average query time c: count #query的次数 l: lock time r: rows sent #返回的记录数 t: query time -r reverse the sort order (largest last instead of first) -t NUM just show the top n queries -a don't abstract all numbers to N and strings to 'S' -n NUM abstract numbers with at least n digits within names -g PATTERN grep: only consider stmts that include this string -h HOSTNAME hostname of db server for *-slow.log filename (can be wildcard), default is '*', i.e. match all -i NAME name of server instance (if using mysql.server startup script) -l don't subtract lock time from total time
