My server is crashing… Now what?

This special episode in the MySQL QA Series is for customers or users experiencing a crash.

  1. A crash?
    1. Cheat sheet: https://goo.gl/rrmB9i
    2. Sever install & crash. Note this is as a demonstration: do not action this on a production server!
      sudo yum install -y http://www.percona.com/downloads/percona-release/redhat/0.1-3/percona-release-0.1-3.noarch.rpm
      sudo yum install -y Percona-Server-client-56 Percona-Server-server-56
      sudo service mysql start
  2. Gimme Stacks!
    1. Debug info packages (can be executed on a production system, but do match your 5.5, 5.6 or 5.7 version correctly)
      sudo yum install -y Percona-Server-56-debuginfo
  3. Testcase?

All, please note we have moved percona-qa to GitHub:
https://github.com/Percona-QA/percona-qa

To clone it, use:
$ sudo yum install git
$ cd ~
$ git clone https://github.com/Percona-QA/percona-qa.git

reducer.sh was also put directly into this repository (and it is maintained there), so *no* need anymore to separately fetch lp:randgen.
