We had master to master replication with two node nodes A & B, both are in virtual environment. Initially there was an outage (diskspace issue) in node A and stopped replication. Application level traffic has been diverted to node B and relocated the node A data store and made available of space. Node A has started successfully & up. Coming to the replication has started and got an error in node B while syncing with node A and bin log in node B got corrupted. The root cause is still a mystery. But analyzing the logs could found some duplicate entries and below is the error log info : [ERROR] Error reading packet from server: Client requested master to start replication from impossible position ( server_errno=1236). [ERROR] Slave I/O: Got fatal error 1236 from master when reading data from binary log: 'Client requested master to start replication from impossible position', Error_code: 1236 111014 20:25:48 [Note] Slave I/O thread exiting, read up to log 'mysql-bin.001067', position 183468345. How do we handle the replication in this situation? Can we skip the current bin-log and start the replication with the next available bin-log and its position. Is it a good idea to sync node B with node A: CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='XX.XX.XXX.XXX', MASTER_USER='replicate', MASTER_PASSWORD='slave', MASTER_PORT=3306, MASTER_LOG_FILE='mysql-bin.001025', MASTER_LOG_POS=4, MASTER_CONNECT_RETRY=10; The main reason I am posing this scenario is, that I don't want to restore the DB and build it from scratch, where DB backup is around 80 GB in node B. How can I repair the replication?
