This document describes how to initialize an instance in the TencentDB for MariaDB Console.

Directions

1. Log in to the TencentDB for MariaDB Console, select an instance in Uninitialized status in the instance list, and select More > Initialize in the "Operation" column.

2. In the pop-up dialog box, configure initialization parameters and click OK to start initialization.

   • Supported Character Set: select the character set supported by the MariaDB database.
   • Table Name Case Sensitivity: specify whether a table name is case-sensitive, which is "yes" by default.
   • Enable Strong Sync: enable strong sync to ensure data consistency in the slave in case the master fails.
     

3. Return to the instance list. After the status of the instance changes to Running, it is initialized successfully.
