mariadb-migrator-modes

The MySQL-to-MariaDB migration modes and the gate each one brings — one_step (serial streaming), two_step (parallel, needs mariadb-mtk and only retries within a run), staged (dump to disk with a SHA-256 manifest, STAGED_PHASE dump_only/load_only across sessions, needs bash 4), binlog (replication, MySQL 8.0+ and no JSON columns), and why inplace/replace_slave are never picked. Use when choosing or recommending a migration mode, when mariadb-mtk or SQLINESDATA_BIN is missing, when splitting a staged dump and load, or when asked for a low-downtime MySQL-to-MariaDB cutover. Read mariadb-migrator first for the tools and preconditions.
