Rename Mysql Instance

3210603Mar 26 2018 — edited Mar 28 2018

Hello everybody ..

I need to rename an instance Mysql.(5.5.28)

I can't use mysqldump : too long because my database = 2 terrabytes.

I would like to know if there is any method like NID in Oracle to rename an instance.

I think not ...

So I think modify the files :  my.cnf,  name_instance.cnf and the directories concerned but I am not sure it is enough : what happens after inside the instance : no other change ?

If anyone have any idea : I take it !

Thanks a lot.

Patrick
