mysql - Safe to delete innodb_status.* files? -
looking @ /var/lib/mysql folder on ubuntu 13.10 server i'm seeing lot of files named innodb_status.*.
running ls -la these files seem have no size them, don't want delete them in case it's doing important.
any ideas?
according mysql pages quoted below, i'd "yes, can (but stop mysql-server first)".
innodb sends diagnostic output stderr or files rather stdout or fixed-size memory buffers, avoid potential buffer overflows. side effect, output of
show engine innodb statuswritten status file in mysql data directory every fifteen seconds. name of fileinnodb_status.pid, pid server process id. innodb removes file normal shutdown. if abnormal shutdowns have occurred, instances of these status files may present , must removed manually. before removing them, might want examine them see whether contain useful information cause of abnormal shutdowns.innodb_status.pidfile created if configuration optioninnodb-status-file=1set.
