前几天刚接手一个 MySQL 数据，操作系统为Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS， 数据库版本为 5.7.23-0ubuntu0.16.04.1（APT方式安装的MySQL）。这个操作系统下的 MySQL 的配置文件 my.cnf 很多地方都让人有点不适应（跟之前的 MySQL 环境有些出入，之前都是维护 RHEL、CentOS 等操作系统环境下的 MySQL）。遂研究总结了一下。具体如下所示：
root@mylnx12:~# find / -name "my.cnf"
/etc/alternatives/my.cnf
/etc/mysql/my.cnf
/var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/my.cnf
root@mylnx12:~# locate my.cnf
/etc/alternatives/my.cnf
/etc/mysql/my.cnf
/etc/mysql/my.cnf.fallback
/var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/my.cnf
root@mylnx12:~# mysql --help | grep my.cnf
order of preference, my.cnf, $MYSQL_TCP_PORT,
/etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf
root@mylnx12:~# mysqld --verbose --help | grep -A 1 'Default options'
Default options are read from the following files in the given order:
/etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf
复制代码从上面这些信息判断，MySQL 的参数文件为 /etc/mysql/my.cnf， 但是其他几个 my.cnf 又是什么情况呢？
root@mylnx12:~# ls -lrt /etc/alternatives/my.cnf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Sep 28 16:28 /etc/alternatives/my.cnf -> /etc/mysql/mysql.cnf
复制代码从上面信息可以看出，/etc/alternatives/my.cnf 其实是一个软连接，指向参数文件 /etc/mysql/mysql.cnf
root@mylnx12:~# cat /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/my.cnf
auto
/etc/mysql/my.cnf
/etc/mysql/my.cnf.fallback
100
/etc/mysql/mysql.cnf
200
复制代码光从上面这些信息，我们还看不出 /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/my.cnf 与其它配置文件 my.cnf 是什么关系。那么我们先来看看参数文件 /etc/mysql/my.cnf，从下面信息，可以看出 “/etc/mysql/my.cnf” 是全局配置，“~/.my.cnf” 隐藏文件是个人用户设置。
root@mylnx12:~# cat /etc/mysql/my.cnf
#
# The MySQL database server configuration file.
#
# You can copy this to one of:
# - "/etc/mysql/my.cnf" to set global options,
# - "~/.my.cnf" to set user-specific options.
#
# One can use all long options that the program supports.
# Run program with --help to get a list of available options and with
# --print-defaults to see which it would actually understand and use.
#
# For explanations see
# http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/server-system-variables.html
#
# * IMPORTANT: Additional settings that can override those from this file!
# The files must end with '.cnf', otherwise they'll be ignored.
#
!includedir /etc/mysql/conf.d/
!includedir /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/
复制代码但是 /etc/mysql/my.cnf 参数文件下面没有任何参数设置，只看到下面两行设置，表示导入这两个目录里面的配置文件。
!includedir /etc/mysql/conf.d/
# 表示包含 /etc/mysql/conf.d/ 这个路径下面的配置文件，前提是必须以为 .cnf 为后缀
!includedir /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/
复制代码表示包含 /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/ 这个路径下面的配置文件，前提是必须以为 .cnf 为后缀
其实MySQL的相关配置都位于 mysqld.cnf（/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf）下面。使用相关参数测试了一下，确实都能生效。这种设置确实有点让刚接触的人有点不适应。暂时先总结到此！
root@mylnx12:~# cd /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/
root@mylnx12:/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d# ls -lrt
total 8
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 21 Feb 4 2017 mysqld_safe_syslog.cnf
