Hi Guys, I've finished a module for ansible, it is called as 'mysql\_replication' and of course you can manage mysql replication features with that. It can operate in different ways, you can check replication master's status, replication slave's status, you can change replication parameters, and stop / start slaves. The documentation is speaks for itself I guess. I hope, it will be merged soon, but before that you can check/test/use it from here: [https://github.com/banyek/ansible/blob/devel/library/database/mysql\_replication](https://github.com/banyek/ansible/blob/devel/library/database/mysql_replication) "Some" code was taken from Mark Theunissen's mysqldb module (for example to connect to db, strip quotes, parse config) thanks for him! kind regards,   Balazs Pocze ---

Would it make sense to have an additional feature that completely removes mysql slave replication from a slave with “reset slave all;” as described here [http://www.mysqlperformanceblog.com/2013/04/17/reset-slave-vs-reset-slave-all-disconnecting-a-replication-slave-is-easier-with-mysql-5-5/](http://www.mysqlperformanceblog.com/2013/04/17/reset-slave-vs-reset-slave-all-disconnecting-a-replication-slave-is-easier-with-mysql-5-5/) Currently it is only possible to stop slave replication with mysql\_replication module… Cheers, Govinda ---

I think pull requests would definitely be considered, though I’d be looking for some folks using this module to weigh in. Internally, we’re more of a Postgres shop, so I’m a bit less the one to comment on applicability.
