 Description   

default_master_connection can't currently be set in option files or on the command-line.

e.g.:

$ grep "default_master_connection" /etc/my.cnf.d/server.cnf
 
default_master_connection='test_master'

If I try to start the server, it errors out:

150820 14:19:00 [ERROR] /usr/sbin/mysqld: unknown variable 'default_master_connection=test_master'
 
150820 14:19:00 [ERROR] Aborting

The KB says that --default-master-connection should work on the command-line, but that doesn't work either:

https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/replication-and-binary-log-server-system-variables/#default_master_connection

$ sudo service mysql bootstrap --default-master-connection='test_master'
 
Bootstrapping the cluster.. Starting MySQL... ERROR!
 

150820 14:29:42 [ERROR] /usr/sbin/mysqld: unknown variable 'default-master-connection=test_master'

I think documentation is overly-optimistic. It's a session-only variable, cannot really be set on server startup.

The documentation has been updated to remove the hopeful commandline option.
