Query Task Status in TiDB Data Migration

This document introduces how to use the query-status command to query the task status, and the subtask status of DM.

Query result

» query-status
{ "result": true, # Whether the query is successful. "msg": "", # Describes the reason for the unsuccessful query. "tasks": [ # Migration task list. { "taskName": "test", # The task name. "taskStatus": "Running", # The status of the task. "sources": [ # The upstream MySQL list. "mysql-replica-01", "mysql-replica-02" ] }, { "taskName": "test2", "taskStatus": "Paused", "sources": [ "mysql-replica-01", "mysql-replica-02" ] } ] }

For detailed descriptions of taskStatus under the tasks section, refer to Task status.

It is recommended that you use query-status by the following steps:

  1. Use query-status to check whether each on-going task is in the normal state.
  2. If any error occurs in a task, use the query-status <taskName> command to see detailed error information. <taskName> in this command indicates the name of the task that encounters the error.

Task status

The status of a DM migration task depends on the status of each subtask assigned to DM-worker. For detailed descriptions of subtask status, see Subtask status. The table below shows how the subtask status is related to task status.

Subtask status in a taskTask status
One subtask is in the paused state and error information is returned.Error - Some error occurred in subtask
One subtask in the Sync phase is in the Running state but its Relay processing unit is not running (in the Error/Paused/Stopped state).Error - Relay status is Error/Paused/Stopped
One subtask is in the Paused state and no error information is returned.Paused
All subtasks are in the New state.New
All subtasks are in the Finished state.Finished
All subtasks are in the Stopped state.Stopped
Other situationsRunning

Subtask status

Status description

  • New:

    • The initial status.
    • If the subtask does not encounter an error, it is switched to Running; otherwise it is switched to Paused.
  • Running: The normal running status.

  • Paused:

    • The paused status.
    • If the subtask encounters an error, it is switched to Paused.
    • If you run pause-task when the subtask is in the Running status, the task is switched to Paused.
    • When the subtask is in this status, you can run the resume-task command to resume the task.
  • Stopped:

    • The stopped status.
    • If you run stop-task when the subtask is in the Running or Paused status, the task is switched to Stopped.
    • When the subtask is in this status, you cannot use resume-task to resume the task.
  • Finished:

    • The finished subtask status.
    • Only when the full replication subtask is finished normally, the task is switched to this status.
