How Do I Migrate Accounts in MySQL Migration, Synchronization, and DR Tasks and Can I Change Passwords?

  • MySQL real-time migration: You can choose whether to migrate accounts when creating a migration task. For details, see Migrating Accounts. If the source and destination databases are of the same major version and the entire instance is migrated, DCL statements can be migrated in incremental mode, but users cannot be changed by updating the mysql.user table.
  • MySQL real-time synchronization: Accounts cannot be synchronized.
  • MySQL real-time DR: Accounts that have operation permissions on user-defined objects in the system database cannot be used for DR. DR objects cannot be selected. In the DR phase, DCL statements are supported, but accounts cannot be changed by updating the mysql.user table.
