Installing the MySQL client utility

Note:

MySQL client utility recommended version is 8.0.25.

RPM Download location

https://downloads.mysql.com/archives/community/

To install, run the following commands in the terminal:

  1. rpm -ivh mysql-community-common-<version_no>.x86_64.rpm
  2. rpm -ivh mysql-community-client-plugins- <version_no>.x86_64.rpm
  3. rpm -ivh mysql-community-libs- <version_no>.x86_64.rpm
  4. rpm -ivh mysql-community-libs-compat- <version_no>.x86_64.rpm
  5. rpm -ivh mysql-community-client- <version_no>.x86_64.rpm

Note:

You might experience a connectivity issue in MySQL client utility 8.0.27 version.

In NetBackup deployed in AKS and EKS environments, perform the following steps for MySQL database backup and restore to work:

  1. Create folder structure as shown. Keep all folder names in lowercase. 
    nbshared
└── mysql

    Dump the mysql 4 rpm into the mysql folder:

    nbshared
└── mysql
    ├── mysql-community-client-8.0.25-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
    ├── mysql-community-client-plugins-8.0.25-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
    ├── mysql-community-common-8.0.25-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
    └── mysql-community-libs-8.0.25-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
  2. Copy the nbshared folder to: primary pod >kubectl cp <path>/nbshared <netbackup namespace>/<primary pod name>:/mnt/nbdata/nbshared

    For example: kubectl cp nbshared nb-namespace/nbu-primary-0:/mnt/nbdata/nbshared

  3. Verify if the nbshared content is copied correctly on the primary pod, run:

    kubectl exec -it pod/nbu-primary-0 -c nbu-primary -n nb-namespace -- ls -ltr /mnt/nbdata/nbshared drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 228 Sep 13 01:42 mysql

  4. Using the same command verify if the mysql folder contains the required RPMs.
