Using and managing a MySQL Cluster requires several specialized programs, which we describe in this chapter. We discuss the purposes of these programs in a MySQL Cluster, how to use the programs, and what startup options are available for each of them.
These programs include the MySQL Cluster data, management, and SQL node processes (ndbd, ndbmtd, ndb_mgmd, and mysqld) and the management client (ndb_mgm).
Other NDB utility, diagnostic, and example programs are included with the MySQL Cluster distribution. These include ndb_restore, ndb_show_tables, and ndb_config. These programs are covered later in this chapter.
The last two sections of this chapter contain tables of options used, respectively, with mysqld and with the various NDB programs.
