Installing a new Slave host

In this section, I will describe the steps to take in order to create a new slave from scratch.

To summarize the steps:

  * De-pool another slave from the same cluster, which will be used as the base.
  * Install required packages on the new slave server
  * Tweak the configuration file of the new slave
  * Clean up the existing slave from replication errors
  * Binary copy of relevant data from existing slave to new slave
  * Add both servers to the pool
  * Cross fingers and make sure everything works...
