Error: mysql probe automated checks fail on MySQL 8.4.x

Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

When using the mysql probe to monitor MySQL 8.4.x environments, automated checks or replication monitoring may fail with error messages. This occurs because earlier versions of the probe do not support the updated replica status commands introduced in MySQL 8.4.5.

Environment

*   DX Unified Infrastructure Management (UIM)
*   mysql (MySQL Server Monitoring) probe 3.63 and lower
*   MySQL Server 8.4.x / 8.4.5

Cause

The issue is caused by a product limitation where the mysql probe does not recognize specific command changes for replication monitoring in MySQL 8.4.5. This is tracked under defect **DE666230** and feature **F158560**.

Resolution

This issue is targeted to be fixed in a future GA release of the mysql probe (version 3.64 or higher).

Once the GA version is officially released, the resolution will be: 
Fixed in release mysql probe 3.64 and higher.
