Sat, 2014-08-23 19:46 — sales_en

FromDual has the pleasure to announce the release of the new version 1.1.0 of its popular MySQL, MariaDB and Percona Server multi-instance environment MyEnv.

The majority of improvements happened in the MySQL Backup Manager (mysql_bman) where we added a backup catalog.

You can download MyEnv from here.

In the inconceivable case that you find a bug in MyEnv please report it to our Bugtracker.

Any feedback, statements and testimonials are welcome as well! Please send them to feedback@fromdual.com.

Upgrade from 1.0.5 to 1.1.0

# cd ${HOME}/product
# tar xf /download/myenv-1.1.0.tar.gz
# rm -f myenv
# ln -s myenv-1.1.0 myenv

If you are using plug-ins for showMyEnvStatus create all the links in the new directory structure:

cd ${HOME}/product/myenv
ln -s ../../utl/oem_agent.php plg/showMyEnvStatus/

Replace the following files:

cp ${HOME}/product/myenv/etc/variables.conf.template /etc/myenv/variables.conf
cp ${HOME}/product/myenv/bin/myenv.server /etc/init.d/myenv
