binary log index file content after dump
I'm testing a script that manages the incremental backups generated by mysql. The script does a mysqldump every 24hs and a incremental backup every 2hs. Mysql creates the binary logs (along the binary log index file) on a directory /mysql-log/.
That is every 24hs, it executes something like:
* mysqldump --single-transaction --flush-logs --master-data=2 --routines --delete-master-logs --user=backup_user --password=123456789 <databases> > <somewhere>
where the option --delete-master-logs deletes the binary logs that are no longer needed
What I was expecting is that running this command, the directory /mysql-log/ contained two files:
-rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 107 Nov 28 10:54 bin-log.000055
-rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 364 Nov 28 10:54 bin-log.index
that is the index file and the newly created binnary log file.
However, the actual content of the /mysql-log/ directory is
-rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 148 Nov 28 10:50 bin-log.000051
-rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 148 Nov 28 10:51 bin-log.000052
-rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 148 Nov 28 10:51 bin-log.000053
-rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 148 Nov 28 10:54 bin-log.000054
-rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 107 Nov 28 10:54 bin-log.000055
-rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 364 Nov 28 10:54 bin-log.index
that is the old binary logs are still available after the dump operation though the dump was done with the --delete-master-logs option.
Moreover, the content of the bin-log.index file is
/mysql-log/bin-log.000042
/mysql-log/bin-log.000043
/mysql-log/bin-log.000044
/mysql-log/bin-log.000045
/mysql-log/bin-log.000046
/mysql-log/bin-log.000047
/mysql-log/bin-log.000048
/mysql-log/bin-log.000049
/mysql-log/bin-log.000050
/mysql-log/bin-log.000051
/mysql-log/bin-log.000052
/mysql-log/bin-log.000053
/mysql-log/bin-log.000054
/mysql-log/bin-log.000055
which does not corresponds to the files in the /mysql-log/ directory.
Any idea what is the issue here?
Thanks
ps: I have tested by running the command
purge binary logs to 'bin-log.000055'
from inside mysql, and then the /mysql-log/ directory contains
-rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 107 Nov 28 10:54 bin-log.000055
-rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 52 Nov 28 11:28 bin-log.index
