=head1 DESCRIPTION
B<mysqlsetup> - Sets up the MySQL database for xCAT to use. The mysqlsetup script is run on the Management Node as root after the MySQL code has been installed. Before running the init option, the MySQL server should be stopped. The xCAT daemon, xcatd, must be running, do not stop it. No xCAT commands should be run during the init process, because we will be migrating the xCAT database to MySQL and restarting the xcatd daemon as well as the MySQL daemon. For full information on all the steps that will be done, read the "Configure MySQL and Migrate xCAT Data to MySQL" sections in

Two passwords must be supplied for the setup, a password for the xcatadmin id and a password for the root id in the MySQL database. These will be prompted for interactively, unless the environment variables XCATMYSQLADMIN_PW and XCATMYSQLROOT_PW are set to the passwords for the xcatadmin id and root id in the database,resp.
Note below we refer to MySQL but it works the same for MariaDB.

=item B<-i|--init>
The init option is used to setup an installed MySQL database so that xCAT can use the database. This involves creating the xcatdb database, the xcatadmin id, allowing access to the xcatdb database by the Management Node. It customizes the my.cnf configuration file for xcat and starts the MySQL server. It also backs up the current xCAT database and restores it into the newly setup xcatdb MySQL database. It creates the /etc/xcat/cfgloc file to point the xcatd daemon to the MySQL database and restarts the xcatd daemon using the database.
On AIX, it additionally setup the mysql id and group and corrects the permissions in the MySQL install directories. For AIX, you should be using the MySQL rpms available from the xCAT website. For Linux, you should use the MySQL rpms shipped with the OS. You can chose the -f and/or the -o option, to run after the init.
