I have this cluster where master and slave uses same indexes but one of the slaves has some extra indexes (large machine which runs some analytics queries).
So I have to maintain two sets of indexes. But this usually creates a problem when I want to recreate an index on master that was already present on the analytics slave.
Can I stop replication of create/drop index statements on one of the slaves so that I can manage them manually?
I don't believe there is a way to ignore specific DDL (or any DDL?). If creating an existing index, it should throw an error, which you should be able to ignore on your analytics-slave.
Alternatively, don't replicate Index Creations.
set log_bin=0;
create index name on table;
set log_bin=1;
Create a wrapper script to apply to master and slave as needed.
