I have the same error with you, mysql server would not run.

Logs:

How did you manage to overcome it.

Regards, Andrew.

The data on SQL data nodes is not in sync.

Do I have to setup replication separately between the data nodes as well to keep them in sync?

I have chosen mysql cluster setup over SQL server 2008 setup.

Your help would be really appreciated.

not sure if it will fix it for you but have you taken a look at http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?25,285742,285922#msg-285922 ?

Regards, Andrew.

Please ignore my previous post, I figured out. Now on the data nodes I keep getting warning: timerhandlinglab with diffs of mostly 62 to 63. I have checked the times of my win 2008 servers and they seem to be in sync.

I have searched online but couldn’t find any other useful info about this warning and how to resolve it.

Thanks,
DY

The only way mysql will even startup is if I use the c:\mysql\cluster\data as the data directory, instead of following the instructions. But then it says no storage nodes connected:

And then when I connect to the db and try to create db (gives first error below, but mysql prompt seems happy) and then a table (gives second error below) I get:

Any one know what’s going on???

For MySQL Server nodes, just add the relevant [mysqld] sections to your config.ini file(s) and then restart the management nodes followed by all of the data nodes in sequence. You can then start your new MySQL Server process.

It’s a little more complex for the data nodes as you’ll probably want to repartition your existing tables once you’ve created the new node-group. Full instructions can be found in this white paper: http://www.mysql.com/why-mysql/white-papers/mysql_wp_cluster7_architecture.php

I have tested out the previous cluster example you kindly posted and that worked fine. I added a copy of one of our development databases into the cluster and tested it with our application (a game) and all worked fine..

Now I have a few other questions…

Can I add additional MySQL nodes, Data nodes and Management nodes without taking down the cluster?

In the original setup how can I close the cluster down and restart it, or do I have to manually restart each node?

Are there any GUI tools for cluster yet? Like MySQL query browser and MySQL Administrator

datadir=E:\am233268\Documents\MySQL_Cluster\My_Cluster\data\mysqld_1
and
datadir=E:\am233268\Documents\MySQL_Cluster\My_Cluster\data\mysqld_2

is different from the link that I’ve post before; in substance why:
[mysqld(API)] 2 node(s)
id=101 @192.168.0.19 (mysql-5.1.39 ndb-7.0.9)
id=102 @192.168.0.19 (mysql-5.1.39 ndb-7.0.9)
and why not
[mysqld(API)] 2 node(s)
id=101 @192.168.0.201 (mysql-5.1.39 ndb-7.0.9)
id=102 @192.168.0.4 (mysql-5.1.39 ndb-7.0.9)

Maybe I’ve missing something important in the link http://www.clusterdb.com/mysql-cluster/mysql-cluster-fault-tolerance-impact-of-deployment-decisions/ but I’m not so expert..

Thx
