In managed services, we get requests to migrate from traditional to GTID-based replication. However, the customer does not want to first enable the GTID on the source node (production). Before MySQL 8.0.23, replication from the disabled GTID source to an enabled GTID replica was impossible.
In this blog, I will talk about a new MySQL feature introduced in 8.0.23, which allows MySQL to replicate from a GTID-disabled source to GTID-enabled replica. You can enable GTID assignment on a replication channel using the ASSIGN_GTIDS_TO_ANONYMOUS_TRANSACTIONS.
Note: The replica must have gtid_mode=ON set, which cannot be changed afterward unless you remove the ASSIGN_GTIDS_TO_ANONYMOUS_TRANSACTIONS setting.
OFF: As the name suggests, it keeps this feature turned off
Local: Returns the local server UUID, same as server_uuid global variable
UUID: Specify a valid UUID which will be used while generating GTID transactions

Let’s demonstrate the feature ASSIGN_GTIDS_TO_ANONYMOUS_TRANSACTIONS.
Initially, we keep the GTID replication disabled on the source and replica node.
Source: GTID replication is disabled

Let’s create a table on the source and check binlog events.

Let’s enable the ASSIGN_GTIDS_TO_ANONYMOUS_TRANSACTIONS=local on the replica and insert a record.
Note: Make sure that gtid_mode=on before enabling the ASSIGN_GTIDS_TO_ANONYMOUS_TRANSACTIONS=local

You can see the binlog has server UUID in replica binlogs. I hope this blog post will help you migrate to GTID replication even easier.
