Failover Replica Randomly fails with: Connecting to master

[Blake Acheson]

Every few months my failover replica will just refuse to connect to master. The connection times out with the Slave IO state "Connecting to master". This has been ongoing for almost a year now. Anyone else experiencing flaky cloud sql replication in us-east1 ?

Hello Blake,

The issue you are reporting will require investigation on your project. As such, I would suggest you open an issue report in our public issue tracker with project number, instance id and all other required information so someone from Google can have a look at the issue.

Kind of a tough ask...I can't leave my production system crippled (it relies on the failover slave for reporting reads)

Hi Blake,

Someone from Google can look at your issue and thus examine your project for the root cause of it one you report an issue in the public issue tracker as mentioned in the previous comment. You can just go to http://issuetracker.google.com and report the issue there.
