[TiDB Usage Environment] Production Environment
[TiDB Version] 6.1.5
Executing DDL operations, the execution time is around 6 minutes. The DDL-related parameters have been increased, but there is no change in execution efficiency before and after the adjustment.
I found the cause of the problem. The cluster was previously upgraded, but the upgrade failed, and one of the TiDB nodes couldn’t start. After stopping that node, the DDL recovered.
Upgrade failed. There was an error at the time, but I didn’t have time to deal with it. However, the application side didn’t know during testing, as the project was still in the testing phase. Later, it was redeployed.
For this kind of testing, the major issue is when the upgrade fails, which urgently needs to be addressed. I don’t understand why the database’s inherent problems are not resolved before continuing with the tests.
