MySQL: migration

 - This is an example of how I did it.  It is not exhaustive, but close.

On the old server:
Dump the needed Databases:
  mysqldump -u root -p dbname1 > dbname1.dump
  mysqldump -u root -p dbname2 > dbname2.dump
  mysqldump -u root -p dbname3 > dbname3.dump

On the new server:

Download mysql from Oracle and unzip it:
unzip p26976024_570_Linux-x86-64.zip 

tar -zxvf mysql-commercial-5.7.20-1.1.el7.x86_64.repo.tar.gz

cd mysql-5.7/

cd 5.7.20/

If installing on Red Hat check to make certain mariadb is uninstalled:
yum remove mariadb*

Install the mysql rpms:
rpm -ivh mysql-commercial-common-5.7.20-1.1.el7.x86_64.rpm 
rpm -ivh mysql-commercial-libs-*
rpm -ivh mysql-commercial-libs-5.7.20-1.1.el7.x86_64.rpm 
rpm -ivh mysql-commercial-libs-compat-5.7.20-1.1.el7.x86_64.rpm 
rpm -ivh mysql-commercial-client-5.7.20-1.1.el7.x86_64.rpm 
rpm -ivh mysql-commercial-server-5.7.20-1.1.el7.x86_64.rpm 

systemctl start mysqld.service
systemctl status mysqld.service 

grep 'temporary password' /var/log/mysqld.log

systemctl enable mysqld.service

mysql -u root -p

systemctl restart mysqld

nano /etc/my.cnf
