Upgrading a Minor Version

Scenarios

RDS for MySQL supports minor version upgrades to improve performance, add new functions, and fix bugs.

Precautions

  • The upgrade will cause the DB instance to reboot and interrupt services intermittently. To limit the impact of the upgrade, perform the upgrade during off-peak hours, or ensure that your applications support automatic reconnection.
  • If primary and standby DB instances are deployed in the same AZ, a minor version upgrade will trigger a failover. If primary and standby DB instances are deployed in different AZs, a minor version upgrade will trigger two failovers.
  • When you upgrade a minor version of a primary DB instance, minor versions of read replicas (if any) will also be upgraded automatically (they cannot be upgraded separately). Perform the upgrade during off-peak hours because the DB instance will be rebooted after the upgrade is complete.
  • A minor version upgrade cannot be rolled back after the upgrade is complete. If the upgrade fails, the DB instance will be automatically rolled back to the source version.
  • DDL operations, such as create event, drop event, and alter event, are not allowed during a minor version upgrade.

Constraints

  • If the replication delay between primary and standby DB instances is longer than 300 seconds, the minor version cannot be upgraded.
  • Minor versions cannot be upgraded for DB instances with abnormal nodes.
  • Currently, RDS for MySQL supports a maximum of 100,000 tables. If there are more than 100,000 tables, the minor version upgrade may fail.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner and select a region and a project.
  3. Click Service List. Under Database, click Relational Database Service. The RDS console is displayed.
  4. On the Instances page, click the target primary/standby DB instances.
  5. In the DB Information area on the Basic Information page, click Upgrade in the DB Engine Version field.
  6. In the displayed dialog box, select a scheduled time and click OK.
