Create LVM snapshot

Get the data mount

master# df -h $(mysql --batch --skip-column-names -e "show variables like 'datadir'" | awk '{print $NF;}')
Filesystem                         Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg--mysql-mysql--data  138G   78G   55G  59% /var/lib/mysql
master# DATADIR="$(mysql --batch --skip-column-names -e "show variables like 'datadir'" | awk '{print $NF;}')"

Enough space for a snapshot?

master# lvs /dev/mapper/vg--mysql-mysql--data

Create a concsistent snapshot

master# mysql -e "FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK; SHOW MASTER STATUS;" > ${DATADIR}/master_status.$(date "+%Y%m%d_%H%M%S")
master# lvcreate -l50%FREE -s -n mysql-data-snap /dev/vg-mysql/mysql-data
master# mysql -e "UNLOCK TABLES;"
master# mount /dev/vg-mysql/mysql-data-snap /mnt

master# cat /mnt/master_status.20151002_225659 
File	Position	Binlog_Do_DB	Binlog_Ignore_DB
mysql-bin.002366	263911913

master# mysql --batch --skip-column-names -e "show variables like 'innodb_data_file_path'"
innodb_data_file_path	ibdata1:5G;ibdata2:5G;ibdata3:5G;ibdata4:50M:autoextend

Set the innodb_data_file_path to the same value on the slave.

Copy the data to the slave

slave# DATADIR="$(mysql --batch --skip-column-names -e "show variables like 'datadir'" | awk '{print $NF;}')"
slave# ssh -c blowfish master "cd /mnt ; tar cSpzf - ." | ( cd ${DATADIR} ; tar xlvSpzf - )

Create replication user on master

master# mysql -e ""

Setup slave

slave# mysql -e ""
