Applying this resource causes the Kubernetes Operator to create a StatefulSet with a single Pod and three containers. One container runs the MySQL database software, one runs the components to support backups, and the third runs the mysqld_exporter (for monitoring). The MySQL pod mounts a persistent volume claim (PVC) which holds the MySQL data.
You specify MySQL instance configuration properties to the MySQL operator with a YAML-formatted manifest file. A sample manifest file is provided in mysql.yaml
. See also Creating and Deleting Instance for information about deploying a new MySQL instance using a manifest file.
The list below explains the properties that you can set in your MySQL resource.
name: <string>
Required
Default: standard
The name of the MySQL instance. Must be unique within a namespace. Cannot be modified after the MySQL instance has been created. The metadata can set the name, namespace, labels, annotations, and more for the MySQL object. For more information, see the Kubernetes documentation.
Example: mysql-sample
storageSize: <Quantity>
Optional
Default: n/a
The size of the persistent volume claims (PVCs) for MySQL instance Pods. Specify a suffix for the units (for example: 100G, 1T). After being set, cannot be reduced, but can be increased. For information about allowed size units, see discussion about resource quantities in the kubernetes community GitHub repository.
Example: 50Gi
imagePullSecretName: <string>
Required
Default: n/a
An existing Kubernetes docker-registry secret that can access the registry containing the MySQL image.
Example: tanzu-mysql-image-registry
storageClassName: <string>
Optional
Default: standard
The StorageClass used for PVCs associated with MySQL instance Pods. Cannot be modified after the MySQL instance has been created. For available types, contact your Kubernetes admin. For information about the StorageClass concept, see the Kubernetes documentation.
Example: standard
serviceType: <string>
Optional
Default: ClusterIP
The type of Service used to provide access to the MySQL database. Only ClusterIP
and LoadBalancer
are supported. For more information about Kubernetes ServiceTypes, see the Service Types in the Kubernetes documentation.
Example: LoadBalancer
version: <string>
Optional
Default: The value of defaultInstanceVersion
set by the service administrator in the Tanzu MySQL Helm chart.
The version of the MySQL instance installed. Can be any of '1.0.0', '1.1.0', or '1.2.0'. See List Instances By Version.
Example: 1.1.0
tls.secret.name: <string>
Optional
Default: n/a
The name of the Kubernetes secret containing the TLS certificate and private key used to support encrypted connections by clients. For more configuration details, see Configuring TLS for MySQL Instances
Example: mysql-tls-secret
highAvailability.enabled: <boolean>
Optional
Default: false
Whether the instance is a high-availability cluster (not single-node). After being set to true
, it cannot be modified. For information about high availability, see Configuring MySQL Instances for High Availability. Example: true
databasePodConfig.affinity: <corev1.Affinity>
Optional
Default: Database pods for a given instance are scheduled in unique Kubernetes nodes.
The affinity rules for the MySQL database pods must follow the affinity defined by the Kubernetes api, can be updated, and are not required when creating resources. For more information regarding the various fields, see the Affinity and Anti-Affinity in the Kubernetes documention.

databasePodConfig.tolerations: <corev1.Toleration>
Optional
Default: No default tolerations are configured by the Tanzu MySQL Operator.
Configures Kubernetes Tolerations for the MySQL instance's database Pods. The Tolerations can be updated, and are not required when creating resources. For more details on the Kubernetes Taints and Tolerations concept, see Taints and Tolerations in the Kubernetes documentation.
