I'd like to use a script to monitor the replication status of a MySQL database like in this bash script: https://gist.github.com/wesdeboer/1791632
I'd like to create a user which will only be used to query the status of the replication. So basically this user would just need to run the command:
"SHOW SLAVE STATUS \G"
What is the minimum set of permissions I need to grant a user to allow this?
(Is this even something which can be GRANT
ed?
