Enabling GTID-based replication for new read replicas for RDS for MySQL

When GTID-based replication is enabled for an RDS for MySQL DB instance, GTID-based replication is configured automatically for read replicas of the DB instance.

To enable GTID-based replication for new read replicas

  1. Make sure that the parameter group associated with the DB instance has the following parameter settings:

    • gtid_mode – ON or ON_PERMISSIVE

    • enforce_gtid_consistency – ON

    For more information about setting configuration parameters using parameter groups, see Parameter groups for Amazon RDS.

  2. If you changed the parameter group of the DB instance, reboot the DB instance. For more information on how to do so, see Rebooting a DB instance.

  3. Create one or more read replicas of the DB instance. For more information on how to do so, see Creating a read replica.

Amazon RDS attempts to establish GTID-based replication between the MySQL DB instance and the read replicas using the MASTER_AUTO_POSITION. If the attempt fails, Amazon RDS uses log file positions for replication with the read replicas. For more information about the MASTER_AUTO_POSITION, see GTID auto-positioning in the MySQL documentation.
