I have a laptop running Windows 8.1 64bit. What i plan to do is to install mysql server. and then i would install Windows 7 32 bit on a VMWare on the same laptop and will also have mysql server plus bridged networking so it will have different ip with the host OS.
so basically i will have a laptop running windows 8.1 64 bit with mysql server installed. With a vmware running windows 7 32 bit which also have mysql server installed.
Next, i want to set up the mysql server on the windows 8.1 as a master and setup the mysql server on the vmware (running windows 7 32 bit) as a slave.
My question is, will this work? I don't want to start configuring because it will take a lot of time.
If it is not achievable, can somebody recommend me a way to demonstrate mysql replication using only a single laptop/computer
