MYI file difference

[DePhillips, Michael P]

Hi All,

 

I tarred up the data directory from mirror1 data base - slave. Copied the
tarball to mirror2 with the hopes of rebuilding mirror2 - another slave.
Backed up the data directory from mirror2 into old and untarred mirror1

 

Then I did a diff -r against another mirror and the diff came back with 

 

Binary files old/blahblahblah.MYI and data/blahblahblah.MYI differ,

 

For all the .MYI files.

 

Any insight as to why these indexes are different?

 

Thanks 

Mike
