What happened last night with our primary db server was sort of amateur hour, something I learned a lifetime ago but still tripped me up. I recently reset the replication server, upgrading it, and last night it got hung up on an error and filled the disk with MySQL binary log files. Sigh.

@manton I was trying to post during the outage but couldn’t. I knew you would fix it. You’ve added many valuable features to mb but at this time my number one request is reliability.

@abc Thanks, me too. Trying to figure out how we can make this more bulletproof.

@manton Do you have monitoring on these servers? Disk space running out is an easy thing to alert on. Replication broken or lagging is another, but less easy to monitor.

@manton How do other platforms do it? Of all the services I use, MB has the most outages.
