pt-galera-log-explainer¶
Filter, aggregate and summarize multiple galera logs together. This is a toolbox to help navigating Galera logs.
Usage¶
pt-galera-log-explainer [--since=] [--until=] [-vv] [--merge-by-directory] [--pxc-operator] <command> <paths ...>
Commands available¶
list¶
pt-galera-log-explainer [flags] list { --all | [--states] [--views] [--events] [--sst] [--applicative] } <paths ...>
List key events in chronological order from any number of nodes (sst, view changes, general errors, maintenance operations) It will aggregates logs together by identifying them using node names, IPs and internal Galera identifiers.
It can be from a single node:
pt-galera-log-explainer list --all --since 2023-01-05T03:24:26.000000Z /var/log/mysql/*.log
or from multiple nodes.
pt-galera-log-explainer list --all *.log
You can filter by type of events
pt-galera-log-explainer list --sst --views *.log
conflicts¶
List every replication failure votes (Galera 4)
pt-galera-log-explainer conflicts [--json|--yaml] *.log
ctx¶
Get the tool crafted context for a single log. It will contain everything the tool extracted from the log file: version, sst information, known uuid-ip-nodename mappings, …
pt-galera-log-explainer ctx mysql.log
regex-list¶
Will print every implemented regexes: * regex: the regex that will be used against the log files * internalRegex: the golang regex that will be used to extract piece of information * type: the regex group it belong to * verbosity: the required level of verbosity to which it will be printed
pt-galera-log-explainer regex-list
Available flags¶
-h,--helpShow help and exit.
--no-colorRemove every color special characters
--sinceOnly list events after this date. It will affect the regex applied to the logs. Format: 2023-01-23T03:53:40Z (RFC3339)
--untilOnly list events before this date. This is only implemented in the tool loop, it does not alter regexes. Format: 2023-01-23T03:53:40Z (RFC3339)
--merge-by-directoryInstead of relying on extracted information, logs will be merged by their base directory It is useful when logs are very sparse and already organized by nodes.
-v,--verbosity-v: display in the timeline every mysql info the tool used-vv: internal tool debug--pxc-operatorAnalyze logs from Percona PXC operator. It will prevent logs from being merged together, add operator specific regexes, and fine-tune regexes for logs taken from pt-k8s-debug-collector Off by default because it negatively impacts performance for non-k8s setups.
--exclude-regexesRemove regexes from analysis. Use ‘pt-galera-log-explainer regex-list | jq .’ to have the list
--grep-cmdgrep v3 binary command path. For Darwin systems, it could need to be set to
ggrepDefault:grep--versionShow version and exit.

Requirements¶
grep, version 3 On Darwin based OS, grep is only version 2 due to license limitations. –grep-cmd can be used to point the correct grep binary, usually ggrep
Compatibility¶
Percona XtraDB Cluster: 5.5 to 8.0
MariaDB Galera Cluster: 10.0 to 10.6
logs from PXC operator pods (error.log, recovery.log, post.processing.log)
Known issues¶
Nodes sharing the same ip, or nodes with identical names are not supported
Sparse files identification can be missed, resulting in many columns displayed.
--merge-by-directorycan be used, but files need to be organized already in separate directories This is mainly when the log file does not contain enough information.Some information will seems missed. Depending on the case, it may be simply unimplemented yet, or it was disabled later because it was found to be unreliable (node index numbers are not reliable for example)
Columns width are sometimes too large to be easily readable. This usually happens when printing SST events with long node names
Using
liston PXC operator logs can silently lead to broken results,--pxc-operatorshould be usedWhen some display corner-cases seems broken (events not deduplicated, …), it is because of extra hidden internal events.
