Reloading database backup fails with table full error.

Post by sbotnick »

I'm attempting to reload a database dump on a new server and get the following table full error. Below the error is the table status output. I don't know much about the innards of mysql, but it looks like the data length exceeds the max data length. Any ideas on recovering from this issue and is it a bug of some sort? The target is CentOS8.1, the source CentOS7.x. Target filesystem space is adeqate- ~900GB for the ~230MB .sql file

# mysql -u root -p cacti < /home/user/mon01-int-cacti.sql
Enter password:
ERROR 1114 (HY000) at line 2308: The table 'poller_output' is full

MariaDB [(none)]> SHOW TABLE STATUS FROM cacti LIKE 'poller_output';

You need to increase you maximum memory table space in MariaDB/MySQL. There is a setting for it. You will have to restart MariaDB/MySQL first.

It's something like

MAX_HEAP_TABLE_SIZE

You need to simply make larger.

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?
