ndb_import imports CSV-formatted data, such
as that produced by mysqldump
--tab
, directly into
NDB
using the NDB API.
ndb_import requires a connection to an NDB
management server (ndb_mgmd) to function; it
does not require a connection to a MySQL Server.
Usage
ndb_import db_name file_name options
ndb_import requires two arguments.
db_name
is the name of the database
where the table into which to import the data is found;
file_name
is the name of the CSV file
from which to read the data; this must include the path to this
file if it is not in the current directory. The name of the file
must match that of the table; the file's extension, if any,
is not taken into consideration. Options supported by
ndb_import include those for specifying field
separators, escapes, and line terminators, and are described
later in this section. ndb_import must be
able to connect to an NDB Cluster management server; for this
reason, there must be an unused [api]
slot in
the cluster config.ini
file.
To duplicate an existing table that uses a different storage
engine, such as InnoDB
, as an
NDB
table, use the mysql
client to perform a
SELECT INTO
OUTFILE
statement to export the existing table to a
CSV file, then to execute a
CREATE TABLE
LIKE
statement to create a new table having the same
structure as the existing table, then perform
ALTER TABLE ...
ENGINE=NDB
on the new table; after this, from the
system shell, invoke ndb_import to load the
data into the new NDB
table. For example, an
existing InnoDB
table named
myinnodb_table
in a database named
myinnodb
can be exported into an
NDB
table named
myndb_table
in a database named
myndb
as shown here, assuming that you are
already logged in as a MySQL user with the appropriate
privileges:
In the mysql client:
- mysql> EXIT;
- Bye
- shell>
Once the target database and table have been created, a running mysqld is no longer required. You can stop it using mysqladmin shutdown or another method before proceeding, if you wish.
In the system shell:
# if you are not already in the MySQL bin directory: shell> cd path-to-mysql-bin-dir shell> ndb_import myndb /tmp/myndb_table.csv --fields-optionally-enclosed-by='"' \ --fields-terminated-by="," --fields-escaped-by='\\'
The output should resemble what is shown here:
job-1 import myndb.myndb_table from /tmp/myndb_table.csv job-1 [running] import myndb.myndb_table from /tmp/myndb_table.csv job-1 [success] import myndb.myndb_table from /tmp/myndb_table.csv job-1 imported 19984 rows in 0h0m9s at 2277 rows/s jobs summary: defined: 1 run: 1 with success: 1 with failure: 0 shell>
The following table includes options that are specific to ndb_import. Additional descriptions follow the table. For options common to most NDB Cluster programs (including ndb_import), see Section 22.4.31, “Options Common to NDB Cluster Programs — Options Common to NDB Cluster Programs”.

Maximum Value 4294967295
Limit the number of rejected rows (rows with permanent errors) in the data load. The default is 0, which means that any rejected row causes a fatal error. Any rows causing the limit to be exceeded are added to the

As with LOAD DATA
, options for
field and line formatting much match those used to create the
CSV file, whether this was done using
SELECT INTO ...
OUTFILE
, or by some other means. There is no
equivalent to the LOAD DATA
statement STARTING WITH
option.
ndb_import was added in NDB 7.6.2.
