You can use the following command to check the read and write status of the MySQL database:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open the MySQL command line tool or connect to the MySQL database server using a client.<\/li>\n
  2. Check the database’s read and write status using the following command:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    SHOW GLOBAL STATUS LIKE 'Innodb_rows_%';\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
    This command will display the read and write status information related to the InnoDB engine, including the number of rows read, inserted, updated, and deleted.<\/p>\n
    In addition, you can also use the following command to view the total number of connections and active connections in the database:<\/p>\n
    SHOW GLOBAL STATUS LIKE 'Threads_connected';\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
    This command will display the total number of connections and active connections on the current database server.<\/p>\n
    It is important to note that these commands can only view the current status of the MySQL database. If you need to see historical read and write status information, you will need to use other monitoring tools or check the database log files.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
