Configure server parameters in Azure Database for MySQL Flexible Server using the Azure CLI
APPLIES TO:
Azure Database for MySQL - Flexible Server
You can list, show, and update parameters for an Azure Database for MySQL flexible server by using Azure CLI, the Azure command-line utility. The server parameters are configured with the default and recommended value when you create the server.
This article describes how to list, show, and update server parameters by using the Azure CLI.
Note
Server parameters can be updated globally at the server-level, use the Azure CLI or Azure portal
Prerequisites
To step through this how-to guide, you need:
- An Azure Database for MySQL flexible server
- Azure CLI command-line utility or use the Azure Cloud Shell in the browser.
List server parameters for Azure Database for MySQL flexible server
To list all parameters in a server and their values, run the az mysql flexible-server parameter list command.
You can list the server parameters for the server mydemoserver.mysql.database.azure.com under resource group myresourcegroup.
az mysql flexible-server parameter list --resource-group myresourcegroup --server-name mydemoserver
For the definition of each of the listed parameters, see the MySQL reference section on Server System Variables.
Show server parameter details
To show details about a particular parameter for a server, run the az mysql flexible-server parameter show command.
This example shows details of the slow_query_log server parameter for server mydemoserver.mysql.database.azure.com under resource group myresourcegroup.
az mysql flexible-server parameter show --name slow_query_log --resource-group myresourcegroup --server-name mydemoserver
Modify a server parameter value
You can also modify the value of a certain server parameter, which updates the underlying configuration value for the MySQL server engine. To update the server parameter, use the az mysql flexible-server parameter set command.
To update the slow_query_log server parameter of server mydemoserver.mysql.database.azure.com under resource group myresourcegroup.
az mysql flexible-server parameter set --name slow_query_log --resource-group myresourcegroup --server-name mydemoserver --value ON
If you want to reset the value of a parameter, omit the optional --value parameter, and the service applies the default value. For the example above, it would look like:
az mysql flexible-server parameter set --name slow_query_log --resource-group myresourcegroup --server-name mydemoserver
This code resets the slow_query_log to the default value OFF.
Setting non-modifiable server parameters
If the server parameter you want to update is non-modifiable, you can optionally set the parameter at the connection level using init_connect. This sets the server parameters for each client connecting to the server.
Update the init_connect server parameter of server mydemoserver.mysql.database.azure.com under resource group myresourcegroup to set values such as character set.
az mysql flexible-server parameter set --name init_connect --resource-group myresourcegroup --server-name mydemoserver --value "SET character_set_client=utf8;SET character_set_database=utf8mb4;SET character_set_connection=latin1;SET character_set_results=latin1;"
Note
init_connect can be used to change parameters that do not require SUPER privilege(s) at the session level. To verify if you can set the parameter using init_connect, execute the set session parameter_name=YOUR_DESIRED_VALUE; command and if it errors out with Access denied; you need SUPER privileges(s) error, then you cannot set the parameter using `init_connect'.
Working with the time zone parameter
Populating the time zone tables
The time zone tables on your server can be populated by calling the mysql.az_load_timezone stored procedure from a tool like the MySQL command line or MySQL Workbench.
Note
If you are running the mysql.az_load_timezone command from MySQL Workbench, you may need to turn off safe update mode first using SET SQL_SAFE_UPDATES=0;.
CALL mysql.az_load_timezone();
Important
You should restart the server to ensure the time zone tables are properly populated.
To view available time zone values, run the following command:
SELECT name FROM mysql.time_zone_name;
Setting the global level time zone
The global level time zone can be set using the az mysql flexible-server parameter set command.
The following command updates the time_zone server parameter of server mydemoserver.mysql.database.azure.com under resource group myresourcegroup to US/Pacific.
az mysql flexible-server parameter set --name time_zone --resource-group myresourcegroup --server-name mydemoserver --value "US/Pacific"
Setting the session level time zone
The session level time zone can be set by running the SET time_zone command from a tool like the MySQL command line or MySQL Workbench. The example below sets the time zone to the US/Pacific time zone.
SET time_zone = 'US/Pacific';
Refer to the MySQL documentation for Date and Time Functions.
