  • Similar to mysqlfrm, detect presence of mysqld or passed from config/command line
  • Do not use any my.cnf, use sane defaults instead - initialize tmp data directory
  • Collect binary logs files list into binlog index - set root user password and do not expose it
  • Create pyxbackup user with replication client privs - this is to protect the binlogs from accidental PURGE BINARY LOGS
  • Make sure expire_logs_days is set to 0
  • Display port, user, password, socket, binlogs information when mysqld instance is up and running.
