if replication breaks and you end up with a couple of records not pushed out to the slave, is there a way to update the slave without stopping locks on the master and manually transferring a new master copy to the slave?
I am very familiar with this process fix replication but I am writing a script that must include a method of resyncing disk data in the event of replication failure (a self repairing script) I am trying to avoid implementing database locks and mysqldump via Python, if possible.
What is a more seemless method to syncing incomplete data following replication failure, one that would be script friendly?
