Please help me I cant figure this problem out : I have a problem with Percona 5.6 when using Configuration Wizard According to the Percona Configuration Wizard I need to use the following values in the my.cnf file : innodb-buffer-pool-size = 24G datadir = /app/mysql/ However Percona 5.6 has discontinued the my.cnf file So How or where do I put these values into what file to get my database to use my new and larger hard disk and the new memory I added to my database hardware ? Is it possible to modify the Percona Configuration Wizard to generate a suitable file and give comments how to use this to implement the values it is recommending on the database server kind regards Nico ---

Hi, I’m not sure where you found this "Percona 5.6 has discontinued the my.cnf file" Even with the Percona 5.6, you can see my.cnf file at the /etc/my.cnf OR on Debian /etc/mysql/my.cnf If you can not see any file like this, then you can create by your own with " vim /etc/my.cnf " and add all required configuration parameters. Btw: I really want to know that where you have seen that PS 5.6 discontinued my.cnf 🙂
