Note
login_password
and login_user
are required when you are passing credentials. If none are present, the module will attempt to read the credentials from ~/.my.cnf
, and finally fall back to using the MySQL default login of ‘root’ with no password.# Check for sync_binlog setting - mysql_variables: variable: sync_binlog # Set read_only variable to 1 - mysql_variables: variable: read_only value: 1
