    Upgrade from systems that use the MyRocks or TokuDB storage engine and partitioned tables¶

    Due to the limitation imposed by MySQL, the storage engine provides support for partitioning. MySQL 8.0 only provides support for partitioned table for the InnoDB storage engine.

    If you use partitioned tables with the MyRocks or TokuDB storage engine, the upgrade may fail if you do not enable the native partitioning provided by the storage engine.

    TokuDB is deprecated. For more information, see TokuDB Introduction.

    Before you attempt the upgrade, check whether you have any tables that are not using the native partitioning.

    $ mysqlcheck -u root --all-databases --check-upgrade
    

    If tables are found, mysqlcheck issues a warning:

    Enable either the rocksdb_enable_native_partition variable or the tokudb_enable_native_partition variable depending on the storage engine and restart the server.

    Your next step is to alter the tables that are not using the native partitioning with the UPGRADE PARTITIONING clause:

    ALTER TABLE <table-name> UPGRADE PARTITIONING
    

    Complete these steps for each table that mysqlcheck list. Otherwise, the upgrade to 8.0 fails and your error log contains messages like the following:

    2018-12-17T18:34:14.152660Z 2 [ERROR] [MY-013140] [Server] The 'partitioning' feature is not available; you need to remove '--skip-partition' or use MySQL built with '-DWITH_PARTITION_STORAGE_ENGINE=1'
    2018-12-17T18:34:14.152679Z 2 [ERROR] [MY-013140] [Server] Can't find file: './comp_test/t1_RocksDB_lz4.frm' (errno: 0 - Success)
    2018-12-17T18:34:14.152691Z 2 [ERROR] [MY-013137] [Server] Can't find file: './comp_test/t1_RocksDB_lz4.frm' (OS errno: 0 - Success)
    

    Perform a distribution upgrade in-place on a system with installed Percona packages¶

    The following is the recommended process for performing a distribution upgrade on a system with the Percona packages installed:

    1. Record the installed Percona packages.

    2. Back up the data and configurations.

    3. Uninstall the Percona packages without removing the configuration file or data.

    4. Perform the upgrade by following the distribution upgrade instructions

    5. Reboot the system.

    6. Install the Percona packages intended for the upgraded version of the distribution.
