Replication activation (2 replies)

Hello,

Can someone tell me if it's possible to start master replication without restarting mysql?

I have a production database that is very diffcult to restart and i have to activate replication from this server (which is the master) to another one (slave).

So i have change configuration in my.cnf to add replication config, but how can i activate it without restart ?

Thanks for your answers.
