Use of uninitialized value $myvar{"wsrep_causal_reads"} in concatenation (.) or string at ./mysqltuner.pl line 6101 (#1) The wsrep_causal_reads option has been deprecated. It has been replaced by [wsrep_sync_wait] (https://galeracluster.com/library/documentation/mysql-wsrep-options.html#wsrep-sync-wait). Maybe change line 6101 to: if ( $myvar{'wsrep_causal_reads'} ) { infoprint "Read consistency mode :" . $myvar{'wsrep_causal_reads'}; } else { infoprint "Sync Wait mode : " . $myvar{'wsrep_sync_wait'}; } I assume 0 for wsrep_sync_wait is the best value and it gets changes per session as required.
