MySQL Error 3181: Master Key Rotation Binlog Failure

📦 MySQL
📋

Description

This error indicates that while a master key rotation operation itself succeeded, the subsequent attempt to record this event in the binary log (binlog) failed. This can lead to inconsistencies in replication or point-in-time recovery scenarios if the binlog is not up-to-date with key management changes. It typically occurs during or immediately after a master key rotation command.
💬

Error Message

Write to binlog failed. However, master key rotation has been completed successfully.
