命令简述
innotop monitors MySQL servers. Each of its modes shows you a different
aspect of what’s happening in the server. For example, there’s a mode for
monitoring replication, one for queries, and one for transactions.
innotop refreshes its data periodically, so you see an updating view.

monitoring replication, one for queries, and one for transactions.
innotop refreshes its data periodically, so you see an updating view.
innotop has lots of features for power users, but you can start and run it
with virtually no configuration. If you’re just getting started, see
“QUICK-START”. Press ‘?’ at any time while running innotop for context-

快速开始
To start innotop, open a terminal or command prompt. If you have
installed innotop on your system, you should be able to just type
“innotop” and press Enter; otherwise, you will need to change to innotop’s
directory and type “perl innotop”.
installed innotop on your system, you should be able to just type
“innotop” and press Enter; otherwise, you will need to change to innotop’s
directory and type “perl innotop”.
With no options specified, innotop will attempt to connect to a MySQL
server on localhost using mysql_read_default_group=client for other
connection parameters. If you need to specify a different username and
password, use the -u and -p options, respectively. To monitor a MySQL
database on another host, use the -h option.

If your server is busy, you’ll see more output. Notice the first line on
the screen, which tells you that readonly is set to true ([RO]), what mode
you’re in and what server you’re connected to. You can change to other
modes with keystrokes; press ‘T’ to switch to a list of InnoDB
transactions, for example.

A: Health Dashboard
This mode displays a single table with one row per monitored server.
The columns show essential overview information about the server’s
health, and coloration rules show whether replication is running or if
there are any very long-running queries or excessive replication

The command summary table is built by extracting variables from
“STATUS_VARIABLES”. The variables must be numeric and must match the
prefix given by the “cmd_filter” configuration variable. The
variables are then sorted by value descending and compared to the last
variable, as shown above. The percentage columns are percentage of
the total of all variables in the table, so you can see the relative
weight of the variables.

D: InnoDB Deadlocks
This mode shows the transactions involved in the last InnoDB deadlock.
A second table shows the locks each transaction held and waited for.
A deadlock is caused by a cycle in the waits-for graph, so there
should be two locks held and one waited for unless the deadlock
information is truncated.

A deadlock is caused by a cycle in the waits-for graph, so there

InnoDB puts deadlock information before some other information in the
SHOW INNODB STATUS output. If there are a lot of locks, the deadlock
information can grow very large, and there is a limit on the size of
the SHOW INNODB STATUS output. A large deadlock can fill the entire
output, or even be truncated, and prevent you from seeing other
information at all. If you are running innotop in another mode, for
example T mode, and suddenly you don’t see anything, you might want to
check and see if a deadlock has wiped out the data you need.

If it has, you can create a small deadlock to replace the large one.
Use the ‘w’ key to ‘wipe’ the large deadlock with a small one. This
will not work unless you have defined a deadlock table for the
connection (see “SERVER CONNECTIONS”).

InnoDB has a huge variety of foreign key error messages, and many of
them are just hard to parse. innotop doesn’t always do the best job
here, but there’s so much code devoted to parsing this messy,
unparseable output that innotop is likely never to be perfect in this
regard. If innotop doesn’t show you what you need to see, just look
at the status text directly.

I: InnoDB I/O Info
This mode shows InnoDB’s I/O statistics, including the I/O threads,
pending I/O, file I/O miscellaneous, and log statistics. It displays
the “io_threads”, “pending_io”, “file_io_misc”, and “log_statistics”

locking tables. You can use it to find when a transaction is waiting
for another, and kill the blocking transaction. It displays the
“innodb_blocked_blocker” table.

L: Locks
This mode shows information about current locks. At the moment only
InnoDB locks are supported, and by default you’ll only see locks for
which transactions are waiting. This information comes from the
TRANSACTIONS section of the InnoDB status text. If you have a very
busy server, you may have frequent lock waits; it helps to be able to
see which tables and indexes are the “hot spot” for locks. If your
server is running pretty well, this mode should show nothing.

This means you can do what may have seemed impossible: to a limited
extent (InnoDB truncates some information in the output), you can see
which transaction holds the locks something else is waiting for. You
can also enable and disable the InnoDB Lock Monitor with the key
mappings in this mode.

PRIMARY key on test.t1, and has been waiting for 10 seconds. The
second connection isn’t waiting, because the Waiting column is 0, but
it holds locks on the same index. That tells you connection 11 is
blocking connection 12.

M: Master/Slave Replication Status
This mode shows the output of SHOW SLAVE STATUS and SHOW MASTER STATUS
in three tables. The first two divide the slave’s status into SQL and
I/O thread status, and the last shows master status. Filters are
applied to eliminate non-slave servers from the slave tables, and non-

indexes and makes them available as INFORMATION_SCHEMA tables. These

INNOTOP的状态
The first line innotop displays is a “status bar” of sorts. What it
contains depends on the mode you’re in, and what servers you’re
monitoring. The first few words are always [RO] (if readonly is set to
1), the innotop mode, such as “InnoDB Txns” for T mode, followed by a
reminder to press ‘?’ for help at any time.

ONE SERVER
The simplest case is when you’re monitoring a single server. In this
case, the name of the connection is next on the status line. This is the
name you gave when you created the connection — most likely the MySQL
server’s hostname. This is followed by the server’s uptime.

name you gave when you created the connection — most likely the MySQL
server’s hostname. This is followed by the server’s uptime.
If you’re in an InnoDB mode, such as T or B, the next word is “InnoDB”
followed by some information about the SHOW INNODB STATUS output used to
render the screen. The first word is the number of seconds since the last
SHOW INNODB STATUS, which InnoDB uses to calculate some per-second
statistics. The next is a smiley face indicating whether the InnoDB
output is truncated. If the smiley face is a :-), all is well; there is
no truncation. A :^| means the transaction list is so long, InnoDB has
only printed out some of the transactions. Finally, a frown 🙁 means the
output is incomplete, which is probably due to a deadlock printing too
much lock information (see “D: InnoDB Deadlocks”).

MONITORING A FILE
If you give a filename on the command line, innotop will not connect to
ANY servers at all. It will watch the specified file for InnoDB status
output and use that as its data source. It will always show a single
connection called ‘file’. And since it can’t connect to a server, it
can’t determine how long the server it’s monitoring has been up; so it
calculates the server’s uptime as time since innotop started running.

commands are killing queries and stopping or starting slaves.
You can kill a connection, or in newer versions of MySQL kill a query but
not a connection, from “Q: Query List” and “T: InnoDB Transactions” modes.
Press ‘k’ to issue a KILL command, or ‘x’ to issue a KILL QUERY command.
innotop will prompt you for the server and/or connection ID to kill

this. innotop will prompt you for a master to run the command on, then
prompt you for the connection names of that master’s slaves (there is no
way for innotop to determine this reliably itself). innotop will find the
minimum binlog in use by these slave connections and suggest it as the
argument to PURGE MASTER LOGS.

InnoDB Deadlock Table
This optional item tells innotop a table name it can use to
deliberately create a small deadlock (see “D: InnoDB Deadlocks”). If
you specify this option, you just need to be sure the table doesn’t

错误处理
Error handling is not that important when monitoring a single connection,
but is crucial when you have many active connections. A crashed server or
lost connection should not crash innotop. As a result, innotop will
continue to run even when there is an error; it just won’t display any
information from the connection that had an error. Because of this,
innotop’s behavior might confuse you. It’s a feature, not a bug!

information from the connection that had an error. Because of this,

innotop does not continue to query connections that have errors, because
they may slow innotop and make it hard to use, especially if the error is
a problem connecting and causes a long time-out. Instead, innotop retries
the connection occasionally to see if the error still exists. If so, it
will wait until some point in the future. The wait time increases in
ticks as the Fibonacci series, so it tries less frequently as time passes.

Since errors might only happen in certain modes because of the SQL
commands issued in those modes, innotop keeps track of which mode caused

By default innotop will display the problem in red text at the bottom of

“show_cxn_errors_in_tbl” configuration option, which is enabled by
default. If the “debug” option is enabled, innotop will display the error
at the bottom of every table, not just the first. And if
“show_cxn_errors” is enabled, innotop will print the error text to STDOUT
as well. Error messages might only display in the mode that caused the

innotop in non-interactive mode, give the L”<–nonint”> command-line
option. This changes innotop’s behavior in the following ways:

· innotop only displays the first table in each mode. This is so the
output can be easily processed with other command-line utilities such
as awk and sed. To change which tables display in each mode, see
“TABLES”. Since “Q: Query List” mode is so important, innotop
automatically disables the “q_header” table. This ensures you’ll see
the “processlist” table, even if you have innotop configured to show
the q_header table during interactive operation. Similarly, in “T:

This feature is included so you can customize the side-effects caused
by monitoring your server. You may not see any effects, but some
innotop users have noticed that certain MySQL versions under very high
load with InnoDB enabled take longer than usual to execute SHOW GLOBAL

the processlist contains more queries than the machine actually
averages at any given moment. Configuring innotop to pause briefly
after calling SHOW GLOBAL STATUS alleviates this effect.

配置文件
innotop’s default configuration file locations are $HOME/.innotop and
/etc/innotop/innotop.conf, and they are looked for in that order. If the
first configuration file exists, the second will not be processed. Those
can be overridden with the “–config” command-line option. You can edit
it by hand safely, however innotop reads the configuration file when it
starts, and, if readonly is set to 0, writes it out again when it exits.
Thus, if readonly is set to 0, any changes you make by hand while innotop
is running will be lost.

自定义INNOTOP
You can customize innotop a great deal. For example, you can:
· Choose which tables to display, and in what order.
· Choose which columns are in those tables, and create new columns.
· Filter which rows display with built-in filters, user-defined filters,
and quick-filters.
· Sort the rows to put important data first or group together related
rows.
· Highlight rows with color.
· Customize the alignment, width, and formatting of columns, and apply
transformations to columns to extract parts of their values or format
the values as you wish (for example, shortening large numbers to
familiar units).
the values as you wish (for example, shortening large numbers to
familiar units).
· Design your own expressions to extract and combine data as you need.
This gives you unlimited flexibility.
All these and more are explained in the following sections.
TABLES
A table is what you’d expect: a collection of columns. It also has some
other properties, such as a caption. Filters, sorting rules, and
colorization rules belong to tables and are covered in later sections.
other properties, such as a caption. Filters, sorting rules, and
colorization rules belong to tables and are covered in later sections.
Internally, table meta-data is defined in a data structure called
%tbl_meta. This hash holds all built-in table definitions, which contain
a lot of default instructions to innotop. The meta-data includes the
caption, a list of columns the user has customized, a list of columns, a
list of visible columns, a list of filters, color rules, a sort-column
list, sort direction, and some information about the table’s data sources.
Most of this is customizable via the table editor (see “TABLE EDITOR”).

and “TABLES”.
The table life-cycle is as follows:
· Each table begins with a data source, which is an array of hashes.
See below for details on data sources.
· Each element of the data source becomes a row in the final table.
· For each element in the data source, innotop extracts values from the
source and creates a row. This row is another hash, which later steps
will refer to as $set. The values innotop extracts are determined by
the table’s columns. Each column has an extraction subroutine,
compiled from an expression (see “EXPRESSIONS”). The resulting row is
a hash whose keys are named the same as the column name.

the table’s columns. Each column has an extraction subroutine,
compiled from an expression (see “EXPRESSIONS”). The resulting row is
a hash whose keys are named the same as the column name.
· innotop filters the rows, removing those that don’t need to be
displayed. See “FILTERS”.
· innotop sorts the rows. See “SORTING”.
· innotop groups the rows together, if specified. See “GROUPING”.
· innotop colorizes the rows. See “COLORS”.
· innotop transforms the column values in each row. See
“TRANSFORMATIONS”.
· innotop optionally pivots the rows (see “PIVOTING”), then filters and
sorts them.
· innotop formats and justifies the rows as a table. During this step,
innotop applies further formatting to the column values, including
alignment, maximum and minimum widths. innotop also does final error
checking to ensure there are no crashes due to undefined values.
innotop then adds a caption if specified, and the table is ready to
print.

innotop then adds a caption if specified, and the table is ready to

The lifecycle is slightly different if the table is pivoted, as noted
above. To clarify, if the table is pivoted, the process is extract,
group, transform, pivot, filter, sort, create. If it’s not pivoted, the
process is extract, filter, sort, group, color, transform, create. This
slightly convoluted process doesn’t map all that well to SQL, but pivoting
complicates things pretty thoroughly. Roughly speaking, filtering and
sorting happen as late as needed to effect the final result as you might
expect, but as early as possible for efficiency.

COLUMNS
Columns belong to tables. You can choose a table’s columns by pressing
the ‘^’ key, which starts the “TABLE EDITOR” and lets you choose and edit
columns. Pressing ‘e’ from within the table editor lets you edit the
column’s properties:
the ‘^’ key, which starts the “TABLE EDITOR” and lets you choose and edit
columns. Pressing ‘e’ from within the table editor lets you edit the
column’s properties:
· hdr: a column header. This appears in the first row of the table.
· just: justification. ‘-‘ means left-justified and ” means right-
justified, just as with printf formatting codes (not a coincidence).
· dec: whether to further align the column on the decimal point.
· num: whether the column is numeric. This affects how values are
sorted (lexically or numerically).
· label: a small note about the column, which appears in dialogs that
help the user choose columns.
· src: an expression that innotop uses to extract the column’s data from
its source (see “DATA SOURCES”). See “EXPRESSIONS” for more on
expressions.

· minw: specifies a minimum display width. This helps stabilize the
display, which makes it easier to read if the data is changing
frequently.
frequently.
· maxw: similar to minw.
· trans: a list of column transformations. See “TRANSFORMATIONS”.
· agg: an aggregate function. See “GROUPING”. The default is “first”.
· aggonly: controls whether the column only shows when grouping is
enabled on the table (see “GROUPING”). By default, this is disabled.
This means columns will always be shown by default, whether grouping
is enabled or not. If a column’s aggonly is set true, the column will
appear when you toggle grouping on the table. Several columns are set
this way, such as the count column on “processlist” and
“innodb_transactions”, so you don’t see a count when the grouping
isn’t enabled, but you do when it is.

· agghide: the reverse of aggonly. The column is hidden when grouping
is enabled.
FILTERS
Filters remove rows from the display. They behave much like a WHERE
clause in SQL. innotop has several built-in filters, which remove
irrelevant information like inactive queries, but you can define your own
as well. innotop also lets you create quick-filters, which do not get
saved to the configuration file, and are just an easy way to quickly view
only some rows.

as well. innotop also lets you create quick-filters, which do not get
saved to the configuration file, and are just an easy way to quickly view

You can enable or disable a filter on any table. Press the ‘%’ key
(mnemonic: % looks kind of like a line being filtered between two circles)
and choose which table you want to filter, if asked. You’ll then see a
list of possible filters and a list of filters currently enabled for that
table. Type the names of filters you want to apply and press Enter.

USER-DEFINED FILTERS
If you type a name that doesn’t exist, innotop will prompt you to create
the filter. Filters are easy to create if you know Perl, and not hard if
you don’t. What you’re doing is creating a subroutine that returns true
if the row should be displayed. The row is a hash reference passed to
your subroutine as $set.

For example, imagine you want to filter the processlist table so you only
see queries that have been running more than five minutes. Type a new
name for your filter, and when prompted for the subroutine body, press TAB
to initiate your terminal’s auto-completion. You’ll see the names of the
columns in the “processlist” table (innotop generally tries to help you
with auto-completion lists). You want to filter on the ‘time’ column.
Type the text “$set->{time} > 300” to return true when the query is more
than five minutes old. That’s all you need to do.

In other words, the code you’re typing is surrounded by an implicit
context, which looks like this:

sub filter { my ( $set ) = @_; # YOUR CODE HERE }
If your filter doesn’t work, or if something else suddenly behaves
differently, you might have made an error in your filter, and innotop is
silently catching the error. Try enabling “debug” to make innotop throw
an error instead.

silently catching the error. Try enabling “debug” to make innotop throw

QUICK-FILTERS
innotop’s quick-filters are a shortcut to create a temporary filter that
doesn’t persist when you restart innotop. To create a quick-filter, press
the ‘/’ key. innotop will prompt you for the column name and filter text.
Again, you can use auto-completion on column names. The filter text can
be just the text you want to “search for.” For example, to filter the
“processlist” table on queries that refer to the products table, type ‘/’
and then ‘info product’. Internally, the filter is compiled into a
subroutine like this:

a literal string like ‘product’ works fine as a regular expression.

What if you want the filter to discard matching rows, rather than showing
matching rows? If you’re familiar with Perl regular expressions, you
might guess how to do this. You have to use a zero-width negative
lookahead assertion. If you don’t know what that means, don’t worry.
Let’s filter out all rows where the command is Gandalf. Type the
following:

SORTING

the top of the table. Like anything else in innotop, you can customize
how any table is sorted.

how any table is sorted.
To start the sort dialog, start the “TABLE EDITOR” with the ‘^’ key,
choose a table if necessary, and press the ‘s’ key. You’ll see a list of
columns you can use in the sort expression and the current sort
expression, if any. Enter a list of columns by which you want to sort and
press Enter. If you want to reverse sort, prefix the column name with a
minus sign. For example, if you want to sort by column a ascending, then
column b descending, type ‘a -b’. You can also explicitly add a + in
front of columns you want to sort ascending, but it’s not required.

GROUPING
innotop can group, or aggregate, rows together (the terms are used
interchangeably). This is quite similar to an SQL GROUP BY clause. You
can specify to group on certain columns, or if you don’t specify any, the
entire set of rows is treated as one group. This is quite like SQL so
far, but unlike SQL, you can also select un-grouped columns. innotop
actually aggregates every column. If you don’t explicitly specify a
grouping function, the default is ‘first’. This is basically a
convenience so you don’t have to specify an aggregate function for every
column you want in the result.

The columns by which the table is grouped are specified in its group_by

The rest of the visible columns appear in order after them.
Two tables have default group_by lists and a count column built in:
“processlist” and “innodb_transactions”. The grouping is by connection
and status, so you can quickly see how many queries or transactions are in
a given status on each server you’re monitoring. The time columns are
aggregated as a sum; other columns are left at the default ‘first’

By default, the table shown in “S: Variables & Status” mode also uses
grouping so you can monitor variables and status across many servers. The
default aggregation function in this mode is ‘avg’.

Here’s an example of grouping at work. Suppose you have a very busy
server with hundreds of open connections, and you want to see how many
connections are in what status. Using the built-in grouping rules, you
can press ‘Q’ to enter “Q: Query List” mode. Press ‘=’ to toggle grouping
(if necessary, select the “processlist” table when prompted).

can press ‘Q’ to enter “Q: Query List” mode. Press ‘=’ to toggle grouping
(if necessary, select the “processlist” table when prompted).
Your display might now look like the following:
Query List (? for help) localhost, 32:33, 0.11 QPS, 1 thd, 5.0.38-log
CXN Cmd Cnt ID User Host Time Query
localhost Query 49 12933 webusr localhost 19:38 SELECT * FROM

localhost Sleep 120 140 webusr localhost 5:18:12
localhost Statistics 12 19213 webusr localhost 01:19 SELECT * FROM
That’s actually quite a worrisome picture. You’ve got a lot of idle
connections (Sleep), and some connections executing queries (Query and
Sending Data). That’s okay, but you also have a lot in Statistics status,
collectively spending over a minute. That means the query optimizer is
having a really hard time generating execution plans for your statements.
Something is wrong; it should normally take milliseconds to plan queries.
You might not have seen this pattern if you didn’t look at your
connections in aggregate. (This is a made-up example, but it can happen
in real life).

PIVOTING
innotop can pivot a table for more compact display, similar to a Pivot
Table in a spreadsheet (also known as a crosstab). Pivoting a table makes
columns into rows. Assume you start with this table:

columns into rows. Assume you start with this table:
foo bar
=== ===
1 3
2 4
=== ===
1 3

After pivoting, the table will look like this:

==== ==== ====
foo 1 2
bar 3 4

foo 1 2
bar 3 4
To get reasonable results, you might need to group as well as pivoting.

COLORS
By default, innotop highlights rows with color so you can see at a glance
which rows are more important. You can customize the colorization rules
and add your own to any table. Open the table editor with the ‘^’ key,
choose a table if needed, and press ‘o’ to open the color editor dialog.

and add your own to any table. Open the table editor with the ‘^’ key,
choose a table if needed, and press ‘o’ to open the color editor dialog.
The color editor dialog displays the rules applied to the table, in the
order they are evaluated. Each row is evaluated against each rule to see
if the rule matches the row; if it does, the row gets the specified color,
and no further rules are evaluated. The rules look like the following:

if the rule matches the row; if it does, the row gets the specified color,
and no further rules are evaluated. The rules look like the following:

user eq system user white
cmd eq Connect white
cmd eq Binlog Dump white

This is the default rule set for the “processlist” table. In order of
priority, these rules make locked queries black on a red background, “gray
out” connections from replication and sleeping queries, and make queries
turn from cyan to red as they run longer.

You can use keystrokes to move the rules up and down, which re-orders
their priority. You can also delete rules and add new ones. If you add a

The value in the third step needs to be correctly quoted. innotop does
not try to quote the value because it doesn’t know whether it should treat
the value as a string or a number. If you want to compare the column
against a string, as for example in the first rule above, you should enter
‘Locked’ surrounded by quotes. If you get an error message about a
bareword, you probably should have quoted something.

EXPRESSIONS
Expressions are at the core of how innotop works, and are what enables you
to extend innotop as you wish. Recall the table lifecycle explained in
“TABLES”. Expressions are used in the earliest step, where it extracts
values from a data source to form rows.
to extend innotop as you wish. Recall the table lifecycle explained in
“TABLES”. Expressions are used in the earliest step, where it extracts
values from a data source to form rows.
It does this by calling a subroutine for each column, passing it the
source data set, a set of current values, and a set of previous values.
These are all needed so the subroutine can calculate things like the
difference between this tick and the previous tick.

These are all needed so the subroutine can calculate things like the

The subroutines that extract the data from the set are compiled from
expressions. This gives significantly more power than just naming the
values to fill the columns, because it allows the column’s value to be
calculated from whatever data is necessary, but avoids the need to write
complicated and lengthy Perl code.

calculated from whatever data is necessary, but avoids the need to write

innotop begins with a string of text that can look as simple as a value’s
name or as complicated as a full-fledged Perl expression. It looks at
each ‘bareword’ token in the string and decides whether it’s supposed to
be a key into the $set hash. A bareword is an unquoted value that isn’t
already surrounded by code-ish things like dollar signs or curly brackets.
If innotop decides that the bareword isn’t a function or other valid Perl
code, it converts it into a hash access. After the whole string is
processed, innotop compiles a subroutine, like this:

If innotop decides that the bareword isn’t a function or other valid Perl

sub compute_column_value { my ( $set, $cur, $pre ) = @_; my $val = # EXPANDED STRING GOES HERE return $val; }

innotop decides both words are barewords, and transforms this expression
into the following Perl code:

$set->{Questions}/$set->{Uptime_hires}
When surrounded by the rest of the subroutine’s code, this is executable

The arguments to the subroutine are named $set, $cur, and $pre. In most
cases, $set and $cur will be the same values. However, if “status_inc” is

Slave_retried_transactions status variable gives you that data: “The total

变量设置
Variable sets are used in “S: Variables & Status” mode to define more
easily what variables you want to monitor. Behind the scenes they are
compiled to a list of expressions, and then into a column list so they can
be treated just like columns in any other table, in terms of data
extraction and transformations. However, you’re protected from the
tedious details by a syntax that ought to feel very natural to you: a SQL
SELECT list.

Plugin Editor
The plugin editor lets you view the plugins innotop discovered and
activate or deactivate them. Start the editor by pressing $ to start the
configuration editor from any mode. Press the ‘p’ key to start the plugin
editor. You’ll see a list of plugins innotop discovered. You can use the
‘j’ and ‘k’ keys to move the highlight to the desired one, then press the
* key to toggle it active or inactive. Exit the editor and restart
innotop for the changes to take effect.

SQL语句
innotop uses a limited set of SQL statements to retrieve data from MySQL
for display. The statements are customized depending on the server
version against which they are executed; for example, on MySQL 5 and
newer, INNODB_STATUS executes “SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS”, while on
earlier versions it executes “SHOW INNODB STATUS”. The statements are as
follows:

数据源(DATA SOURCES)
Each time innotop extracts values to create a table (see “EXPRESSIONS” and
“TABLES”), it does so from a particular data source. Largely because of
the complex data extracted from SHOW INNODB STATUS, this is slightly
messy. SHOW INNODB STATUS contains a mixture of single values and
repeated values that form nested data sets.

the complex data extracted from SHOW INNODB STATUS, this is slightly
messy. SHOW INNODB STATUS contains a mixture of single values and
repeated values that form nested data sets.
Whenever innotop fetches data from MySQL, it adds two extra bits to each
set: cxn and Uptime_hires. cxn is the name of the connection from which
the data came. Uptime_hires is a high-resolution version of the server’s
Uptime status variable, which is important if your “interval” setting is
sub-second.

Uptime status variable, which is important if your “interval” setting is

Here are the kinds of data sources from which data is extracted:
STATUS_VARIABLES
This is the broadest category, into which the most kinds of data fall.
It begins with the combination of SHOW STATUS and SHOW VARIABLES, but
other sources may be included as needed, for example, SHOW MASTER
STATUS and SHOW SLAVE STATUS, as well as many of the non-repeated
values from SHOW INNODB STATUS.

MySQL权限
· You must connect to MySQL as a user who has the SUPER privilege for
many of the functions.
· If you don’t have the SUPER privilege, you can still run some
functions, but you won’t necessarily see all the same data.
· You need the PROCESS privilege to see the list of currently running
queries in Q mode.
· You need special privileges to start and stop slave servers.
· You need appropriate privileges to create and drop the deadlock tables
if needed (see “SERVER CONNECTIONS”).
系统要求
You need Perl to run innotop, of course. You also need a few Perl
modules: DBI, DBD::mysql, Term::ReadKey, and Time::HiRes. These should
be included with most Perl distributions, but in case they are not, I
recommend using versions distributed with your operating system or Perl
distribution, not from CPAN. Term::ReadKey in particular has been known
to cause problems if installed from CPAN.

If you have Term::ANSIColor, innotop will use it to format headers more
readably and compactly. (Under Microsoft Windows, you also need
Win32::Console::ANSI for terminal formatting codes to be honored). If you
install Term::ReadLine, preferably Term::ReadLine::Gnu, you’ll get nice
auto-completion support.

I run innotop on Gentoo GNU/Linux, Debian and Ubuntu, and I’ve had
feedback from people successfully running it on Red Hat, CentOS, Solaris,
and Mac OSX. I don’t see any reason why it won’t work on other UNIX-ish
operating systems, but I don’t know for sure. It also runs on Windows
under ActivePerl without problem.

innotop has been used on MySQL versions 3.23.58, 4.0.27, 4.1.0, 4.1.22,
5.0.26, 5.1.15, and 5.2.3. If it doesn’t run correctly for you, that is a
bug that should be reported.
