+# Make sure that the MariaDB user, who is stopping the mysqld services, has
+# the same password to all MariaDB servers being accessed by $my_progname.
+# This user needs to have the 'Shutdown_priv' -privilege, but for security
+# reasons should have no other privileges. It is advised that you create a
+# common 'multi_admin' user for all MariaDB servers being controlled by
+# $my_progname. Here is an example how to do it:
+#
+# GRANT SHUTDOWN ON *.* TO multi_admin\@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password'
+#
+# You will need to apply the above to all MariaDB servers that are being
+# controlled by $my_progname. 'multi_admin' will shutdown the servers
+# using 'mysqladmin' -binary, when '$my_progname stop' is being called.
+#
+# 2.PID-FILE
+#
+# If you are using mariadbd-safe to start mariadbd, make sure that every
+# MariaDB server has a separate pid-file. In order to use mariadbd-safe
+# via $my_progname, you need to use two options:
+#
+# mysqld=/path/to/mariadbd-safe
+# ledir=/path/to/mariadbd-binary/
+#
+# ledir (library executable directory), is an option that only mariadbd-safe
+# accepts, so you will get an error if you try to pass it to mysqld directly.
+# For this reason you might want to use the above options within [mysqld#]
+# group directly.
+#
+# 3.DATA DIRECTORY
+#
+# It is NOT advised to run many MariaDB servers within the same data directory.
+# You can do so, but please make sure to understand and deal with the
+# underlying caveats. In short they are:
+# - Speed penalty
+# - Risk of table/data corruption
+# - Data synchronising problems between the running servers
+# - Heavily media (disk) bound
+# - Relies on the system (external) file locking
+# - Is not applicable with all table types. (Such as InnoDB)
+# Trying so will end up with undesirable results.
+#
+# 4.TCP/IP Port
+#
+# Every server requires one and it must be unique.
+#
+# 5.[mysqld#] Groups
+#
+# In the example below the first and the fifth mysqld group was
+# intentionally left out. You may have 'gaps' in the config file. This
+# gives you more flexibility.
+#
+# 6.MariaDB Server User
+#
+# You can pass the user=... option inside [mysqld#] groups. This
+# can be very handy in some cases, but then you need to run $my_progname
+# as UNIX root.
+#
+# 7.A Start-up Manage Script for $my_progname
+#
+# In the recent MariaDB distributions you can find a file called
+# mysqld_multi.server.sh. It is a wrapper for $my_progname. This can
+# be used to start and stop multiple servers during boot and shutdown.
+#
+# You can place the file in /etc/init.d/mysqld_multi.server.sh and
+# make the needed symbolic links to it from various run levels
+# (as per Linux/Unix standard). You may even replace the
+# /etc/init.d/mysql.server script with it.
+#
+# Before using, you must create a my.cnf file either in @prefix@/my.cnf
+# or /root/.my.cnf and add the [mysqld_multi] and [mysqld#] groups.
+#
+# The script can be found from support-files/mysqld_multi.server.sh
+# in MariaDB distribution. (Verify the script before using)
+#

+$my_progname version $VER by Jani Tolonen
+
+Description:
+$my_progname can be used to start, reload, or stop any number of separate
+mysqld processes running in different TCP/IP ports and UNIX sockets.
+
+$my_progname can read group [mysqld_multi] from my.cnf file. You may
+want to put options mysqld=... and mysqladmin=... there. Since
+version 2.10 these options can also be given under groups [mysqld#],
+which gives more control over different versions. One can have the
+default mysqld and mysqladmin under group [mysqld_multi], but this is
+not mandatory. Please note that if mysqld or mysqladmin is missing
+from both [mysqld_multi] and [mysqld#], a group that is tried to be
+used, $my_progname will abort with an error.
+
+$my_progname will search for groups named [mysqld#] from my.cnf (or
+the given --defaults-extra-file=...), where '#' can be any positive
+integer starting from 1. These groups should be the same as the regular
+[mysqld] group, but with those port, socket and any other options
+that are to be used with each separate mysqld process. The number
+in the group name has another function; it can be used for starting,
+reloading, stopping, or reporting any specific mysqld server.
+
+Usage: $my_progname [OPTIONS] {start|reload|stop|report} [GNR,GNR,GNR...]
+or $my_progname [OPTIONS] {start|reload|stop|report} [GNR-GNR,GNR,GNR-GNR,...]
+
+The GNR means the group number. You can start, reload, stop or report any GNR,
+or several of them at the same time. (See --example) The GNRs list can
+be comma separated or a dash combined. The latter means that all the
+GNRs between GNR1-GNR2 will be affected. Without GNR argument all the
+groups found will either be started, reloaded, stopped, or reported. Note that
+syntax for specifying GNRs must appear without spaces.
+
+Options:
+
+These options must be given before any others:
+--no-defaults Do not read any defaults file
+--defaults-file=... Read only this configuration file, do not read the
+ standard system-wide and user-specific files
+--defaults-extra-file=... Read this configuration file in addition to the
+ standard system-wide and user-specific files
+Using: @{[join ' ', @defaults_options]}
+
+--example Give an example of a config file with extra information.
+--help Print this help and exit.
+--log=... Log file. Full path to and the name for the log file. NOTE:
+ If the file exists, everything will be appended.
+ Using: $opt_log
+--mysqladmin=... mysqladmin binary to be used for a server shutdown.
+ Since version 2.10 this can be given within groups [mysqld#]
+ Using: $mysqladmin
+--mysqld=... mariadbd binary to be used. Note that you can give mariadbd-safe
+ to this option also. The options are passed to mysqld. Just
+ make sure you have mariadbd in your PATH or fix mariadbd-safe.
+ Using: $mysqld
+ Please note: Since mysqld_multi version 2.3 you can also
+ give this option inside groups [mysqld#] in ~/.my.cnf,
+ where '#' stands for an integer (number) of the group in
+ question. This will be recognised as a special option and
+ will not be passed to the mysqld. This will allow one to
+ start different mysqld versions with mysqld_multi.
+--no-log Print to stdout instead of the log file. By default the log
+ file is turned on.
+--password=... Password for mysqladmin user.
+--silent Disable warnings.
+--tcp-ip Connect to the MariaDB server(s) via the TCP/IP port instead
+ of the UNIX socket. This affects stopping and reporting.
+ If a socket file is missing, the server may still be
+ running, but can be accessed only via the TCP/IP port.
+ By default connecting is done via the UNIX socket.
+--user=... mysqladmin user. Using: $opt_user
+--verbose Be more verbose.
+--version Print the version number and exit.
+--wsrep-new-cluster Bootstrap a cluster.
