The two main categories of risks are those created by the nature of the tool (e.g. read-only tools vs. read-write tools) and those created by bugs. .PP pt-trend simply reads files give on the command-line. It should be very low-risk. .PP At the time of this release, we know of no bugs that could cause serious harm to users. .PP The authoritative source for updated information is always the online issue tracking system. Issues that affect this tool will be marked as such. You can see a list of such issues at the following \s-1URL:\s0 http://www.percona.com/bugs/pt\-trend . .PP See also \*(L"\s-1BUGS\s0\*(R" for more information on filing bugs and getting help. .SH "DESCRIPTION" .IX Header "DESCRIPTION" You can specify multiple files on the command line. If you don't specify any, or if you use the special filename \f(CW\*(C`\-\*(C'\fR, lines are read from standard input. .SH "OPTIONS" .IX Header "OPTIONS" This tool accepts additional command-line arguments. Refer to the \&\*(L"\s-1SYNOPSIS\s0\*(R" and usage information for details. .IP "\-\-config" 4 .IX Item "--config" type: Array .Sp Read this comma-separated list of config files; if specified, this must be the first option on the command line. .IP "\-\-help" 4 .IX Item "--help" Show help and exit. .IP "\-\-pid" 4 .IX Item "--pid" type: string .Sp Create the given \s-1PID\s0 file. The file contains the process \s-1ID\s0 of the script. The \s-1PID\s0 file is removed when the script exits. Before starting, the script checks if the \s-1PID\s0 file already exists. If it does not, then the script creates and writes its own \s-1PID\s0 to it. If it does, then the script checks the following: if the file contains a \s-1PID\s0 and a process is running with that \s-1PID\s0, then the script dies; or, if there is no process running with that \s-1PID\s0, then the script overwrites the file with its own \s-1PID\s0 and starts; else, if the file contains no \s-1PID\s0, then the script dies. .IP "\-\-progress" 4 .IX Item "--progress" type: array; default: time,15 .Sp Print progress reports to \s-1STDERR\s0. The value is a comma-separated list with two parts. The first part can be percentage, time, or iterations; the second part specifies how often an update should be printed, in percentage, seconds, or number of iterations. .IP "\-\-quiet" 4 .IX Item "--quiet" short form: \-q .Sp Disables \*(L"\-\-progress\*(R". .IP "\-\-version" 4 .IX Item "--version" Show version and exit. .SH "ENVIRONMENT" .IX Header "ENVIRONMENT" The environment variable \f(CW\*(C`PTDEBUG\*(C'\fR enables verbose debugging output to \s-1STDERR\s0. To enable debugging and capture all output to a file, run the tool like: .PP .Vb 1 \& PTDEBUG=1 pt\-trend ... > FILE 2>&1 .Ve .PP Be careful: debugging output is voluminous and can generate several megabytes of output. .SH "SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS" .IX Header "SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS" You need Perl, \s-1DBI\s0, DBD::mysql, and some core packages that ought to be installed in any reasonably new version of Perl. .SH "BUGS" .IX Header "BUGS" For a list of known bugs, see http://www.percona.com/bugs/pt\-trend . .PP Please report bugs at https://bugs.launchpad.net/percona\-toolkit . Include the following information in your bug report: .IP "\(bu" 4 Complete command-line used to run the tool .IP "\(bu" 4 Tool \*(L"\-\-version\*(R" .IP "\(bu" 4 MySQL version of all servers involved .IP "\(bu" 4 Output from the tool including \s-1STDERR\s0 .IP "\(bu" 4 Input files (log/dump/config files, etc.) .PP If possible, include debugging output by running the tool with \f(CW\*(C`PTDEBUG\*(C'\fR; see \*(L"\s-1ENVIRONMENT\s0\*(R". .SH "DOWNLOADING" .IX Header "DOWNLOADING" Visit http://www.percona.com/software/percona\-toolkit/ to download the latest release of Percona Toolkit.

Percona Toolkit was forked from two projects in June, 2011: Maatkit and Aspersa. Those projects were created by Baron Schwartz and developed primarily by him and Daniel Nichter, both of whom are employed by Percona.
