ConfigMap allow you to decouple configuration artifacts and secrets from image content to keep containerized applications portable. Using ConfigMap, you can independently control MySQL configuration.
Copy/Paste the following commands into your Cloud9 Terminal.
cd ~/environment/templates
wget https://eksworkshop.com/beginner/170_statefulset/configmap.files/mysql-configmap.yml
Check the configuration of mysql-configmap.yml file by following command.
cat ~/environment/templates/mysql-configmap.yml
ConfigMap stores master.cnf, slave.cnf and pass them when initializing master and slave pods defined in statefulset. master.cnf is for the MySQL master pod which has binary log option (log-bin) to provides a record of the data changes to be sent to slave servers and slave.cnf is for slave pods which has super-read-only option.
Create configmap “mysql-config” by following command.
kubectl create -f ~/environment/templates/mysql-configmap.yml
