• True Multi-master, Active-Active Cluster Read and write to any node at any time.
• Synchronous Replication No slave lag, no data is lost at node crash.
• Tightly Coupled All nodes hold the same state. No diverged data between nodes allowed.
• Multi-threaded Slave For better performance. For any workload.
• No Master-Slave Failover Operations or Use of VIP.
• Hot Standby No downtime during failover (since there is no failover).
• Automatic Node Provisioning No need to manually back up the database and copy it to the new node.
• Supports InnoDB.
• Transparent to Applications Required no (or minimal changes) to the application.
• No Read and Write Splitting Needed.
• Easy to Use and Deploy

This playbook requires minimum of 3 ubuntu 16.04 nodes (you can add more nodes as needed) for installing mysql 5.7 galera cluster and 1 ubuntu 16.04 node for installing HAproxy. cluster nodes and proxy node must be defined inside the included inventory.yml file.

add hosts to inventory.yml

Note: Do not modify the host group names [mysql_cluster] and [load_balancer] when adding hosts to inventory.yml file since it has dependencies inside the playbook.

[mysql_cluster]
mysql_node_1 ansible_host=192.168.10.2 ansible_port=22 ansible_user=ubuntu
mysql_node_2 ansible_host=192.168.10.3 ansible_port=22 ansible_user=ubuntu
mysql_node_3 ansible_host=192.168.10.4 ansible_port=22 ansible_user=ubuntu
[load_balancer]
haproxy_load_balancer ansible_host=192.168.10.5 ansible_port=22 ansible_user=ubuntu

Before running the playbook you have to configure below variables inside the playbook : deploy-mysql-cluster.yml

mysql_cluster_name: demo_mysql_cluster <= name of your mysql cluster without spaces

mysql_root_password: your_mysql_root_password <= a strong password for mysql root user

ansible-playbook --fork=1 deploy-mysql-cluster.yml -i inventory.yml

After successful completion of playbook, you can access the cluster by mysql -h load_balancer_IP -P 3306 -u root -p your_mysql_root_password

check the last part of playbook output

ok: [haproxy_load_balancer] => {
    "msg": [
        " Test connection successfull", 
        " Total number of active mysql nodes in cluster: '3 '", 
        " Setup Completed!"
    ]
}

You can also verfiy the status of mysql cluster by manually running below query

`mysql -h load_balancer_IP -P 3306 -u root -p your_mysql_root_password`

`mysql> SHOW STATUS LIKE 'wsrep_cluster_size';
+--------------------+-------+
| Variable_name      | Value |
+--------------------+-------+
| wsrep_cluster_size | 3     |
+--------------------+-------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)`

Which means we have 3 active nodes

You can use the --tag option "stop_cluster" to safely stop the mysql cluster

ansible-playbook --fork=1 deploy-mysql-cluster.yml -i inventory.yml --tags "stop_cluster"

You can use the --tag option "start_cluster" to safely start/bootstrap the mysql cluster

ansible-playbook --fork=1 deploy-mysql-cluster.yml -i inventory.yml --tags "start_cluster"
