STOP SLAVE [thread_types]thread_types: [thread_type[,thread_type] ... ]thread_type: IO_THREAD | SQL_THREAD
Stops the slave threads. STOP
SLAVE requires the
SUPER privilege. Recommended best
practice is to execute STOP SLAVE on the
slave before stopping the slave server (see
Section 5.1.12, “The Server Shutdown Process”, for more information).
When using the row-based logging format:
You should execute STOP SLAVE on the slave
prior to shutting down the slave server if you are replicating
any tables that use a nontransactional storage engine (see the
Note later in this section). In MySQL
5.5.9 and later, you can also use STOP SLAVE
SQL_THREAD for this purpose.
Like START SLAVE, this statement
may be used with the IO_THREAD and
SQL_THREAD options to name the thread or
threads to be stopped.
In MySQL 5.5, STOP SLAVE waits
until the current replication event group affecting one or
more nontransactional tables has finished executing (if there
is any such replication group), or until the user issues a
KILL QUERY or
KILL
CONNECTION statement. (Bug #319, Bug #38205)
In old versions of MySQL (before 4.0.5), this statement was
called SLAVE STOP. This usage is still
accepted in MySQL 5.5 for backward compatibility,
but is deprecated and is removed in MySQL 5.6.
