Specific Performance Schema features can be enabled at runtime to control which types of event collection occur.
Performance Schema setup tables contain information about monitoring configuration:
mysql> SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = 'performance_schema'
AND TABLE_NAME LIKE 'setup%';
+-------------------+
| TABLE_NAME |
+-------------------+
| setup_actors |
| setup_consumers |
| setup_instruments |
| setup_objects |
| setup_threads |
+-------------------+
You can examine the contents of these tables to obtain information
about Performance Schema monitoring characteristics. If you have
the UPDATE
privilege, you can
change Performance Schema operation by modifying setup tables to
affect how monitoring occurs. For additional details about these
tables, see Section 26.12.2, “Performance Schema Setup Tables”.
The setup_instruments
and
setup_consumers
tables list the
instruments for which events can be collected and the types of
consumers for which event information actually is collected,
respectively. Other setup tables enable further modification of
the monitoring configuration.
Section 26.4.2, “Performance Schema Event Filtering”, discusses how you
can modify these tables to affect event collection.
If there are Performance Schema configuration changes that must be
made at runtime using SQL statements and you would like these
changes to take effect each time the server starts, put the
statements in a file and start the server with the
--init-file=
option. This strategy can also be useful if you have multiple
monitoring configurations, each tailored to produce a different
kind of monitoring, such as casual server health monitoring,
incident investigation, application behavior troubleshooting, and
so forth. Put the statements for each monitoring configuration
into their own file and specify the appropriate file as the
file_name
--init-file
argument when you start
the server.
