INFO
Rule IDs: bp_006
Overview
- Purpose
- Documented in the MySQL 8.4 manual as a server system variable (scope: Global). Purpose and semantics are described at the linked manual page.
- Dynamic (MySQL 8.4 reference)

What is checked
Rules that reference this variable, with their severity and what each rule detects:
- INFO
bp_006: Enable innodb_buffer_pool_dump_at_shutdown and innodb_buffer_pool_load_at_startup for faster warm-up after restarts.
Tuning guidance
- Recommended actions:
- Enable innodb_buffer_pool_dump_at_shutdown and innodb_buffer_pool_load_at_startup for faster warm-up after restarts.
- Trade-offs: Larger buffer pools improve hit ratio but consume more RAM and increase restart warm-up time. Over-allocating risks OOM or swap. Under-allocating means more disk I/O.
Example
Consult the manual for whether SET GLOBAL, SET PERSIST, or SET SESSION applies.
