NAME
ndb_mgm - the management client process
SYNOPSIS
ndb_mgm options
DESCRIPTION
The ndb_mgm management client process is actually not needed to run the
cluster. Its value lies in providing a set of commands for checking the
cluster’s status, starting backups, and performing other administrative
functions. The management client accesses the management server using a
C API. Advanced users can also employ this API for programming
dedicated management processes to perform tasks similar to those
performed by ndb_mgm.
To start the management client, it is necessary to supply the hostname
and port number of the management server:
shell> ndb_mgm [host_name [port_num]]
For example:
shell> ndb_mgm ndb_mgmd.mysql.com 1186
The default hostname and port number are localhost and 1186,
respectively.
Additional information about using ndb_mgm can be found in
Section 6.2.3, “Command Options for ndb_mgm”, and Section 7.2,
“Commands in the MySQL Cluster Management Client”.
