NAME

oak-kill-slow-queries: terminate long running queries

SYNOPSIS

Kill queries running longer than 60 seconds:
oak-kill-slow-queries --slow-query-seconds=60
Kill queries running longer than 60 seconds provided they're not invoked by user 'root':
oak-kill-slow-queries --slow-query-seconds=60 --skip-root
Kill queries running longer than 60 seconds provided they're not invoked by user 'myuser':
oak-kill-slow-queries --slow-query-seconds=60 --skip-user=myuser
Kill any query running longer than 60 seconds and which was invoked by user 'myuser'
oak-kill-slow-queries --slow-query-seconds=60 --filter-user=myuser
Same as above; doesn't perform the KILL, just prints out the statement:
oak-kill-slow-queries --slow-query-seconds=60 --filter-user=myuser --print-only
Same as above, short form; verbose:
oak-kill-slow-queries -l 60 -f myuser --print-only -v
Same as above, provide connection parameters, prompt for password:
oak-kill-slow-queries --user=root --ask-pass --socket=/tmp/mysql.sock -l 60 -f myuser
Same as above, use defaults file:
oak-kill-slow-queries --defaults-file=/home/myuser/.my-oak.cnf -l 10 -f myuser

DESCRIPTION

Terminate long running queries: this utility can terminate queries based on running time and invoking user. It utilizes MySQL's KILL QUERY command, which requires the SUPER privilege. Queries can be terminated per given user, or can be skipped per given user. Only the queries get killed, the connections itself is not affected. Expect exceptions/errors on your client when the queries are killed.
