MySQL 9.3 Reference Manual Including MySQL NDB Cluster 9.3
MySQL applies these rules when
CREATE
TABLE ... SELECT
statements are replicated:
CREATE
TABLE ... SELECT
always performs an implicit
commit (Section 15.3.3, “Statements That Cause an Implicit Commit”).
If the destination table does not exist, logging occurs as
follows. It does not matter whether IF NOT
EXISTS
is present.
STATEMENT
or MIXED
format: The statement is logged as written.
ROW
format: The statement is logged
as a CREATE TABLE
statement followed by a series of insert-row events.
With storage engines that support atomic DDL, the statement is logged as one transaction. For more information, see Section 15.1.1, “Atomic Data Definition Statement Support”.
If the
CREATE
TABLE ... SELECT
statement fails, nothing is
logged. This includes the case that the destination table
exists and IF NOT EXISTS
is not given.
If the destination table exists and IF NOT
EXISTS
is given, MySQL 9.3 ignores
the statement completely; nothing is inserted or logged.
MySQL 9.3 does not allow a
CREATE
TABLE ... SELECT
statement to make any changes in
tables other than the table that is created by the statement.
