+There are different ways to configure MySQL replication. In this exercise, you will be configuring your servers for primary-replica replication.
 
-In this type of replication, the primary server (or the master) takes all the writes and they are automatically replicated onto the replica server (or the slave). This technique is widely used to increase the scalability of the database for read-intensive operations (which is extremely common for the web). In the primary-replica setup, the primary would normally be used for writes and replica (or replicas) for reads only. Even though it's technically possible to use the primary for the reads and the writes, it is impossible to write directly to the replica.
+In this type of replication, the primary server (`SOURCE`) takes all the writes and they are automatically replicated onto the replica server (`REPLICA`). This technique is widely used to increase the scalability of the database for read-intensive operations (which is extremely common for the web). In the primary-replica setup, the primary would normally be used for writes and replica (or replicas) for reads only. Even though it's technically possible to use the primary for the reads and the writes, it is impossible to write directly to the replica.
 
 Another advantage of using such a replication setup is database resilience. For example, it is recommended to setup primary-replica with one primary and two or three replicas in different availability zones. In the event of one availability zone (or datacenter) going down, the database will continue functioning flawlessly as other replicas will be used for reading. In a different scenario of one replica crashing, it can be replaced while the remaining replicas are serving the reads. Should the primary crash, an operation called a 'fail-over' should be carried out: one replica is promoted to be a primary while another MySQL server is being stood up in place of a broken primary.

+   - Obtain the source status on the primary server:

    - Note down the `File` and `Position` values, also note down the private instance IP address (e.g. from your AWS console)
    - On the secondary server, set up the replication:
      ```sql
-     CHANGE MASTER TO
-         MASTER_HOST='<primary_server_ip>',
-         MASTER_USER='replica_user',
-         MASTER_PASSWORD='C90L6`!Doe{K',

+         SOURCE_LOG_POS=<position_from_source_status>;
+     START REPLICA;
      ```
 
 5. **Verify Replication**
    - Check the replica status:
      ```sql
      SHOW REPLICA STATUS\G;
      ```
-   - Ensure `Slave_IO_Running` and `Slave_SQL_Running` are both `Yes`.
+   - Ensure `Replica_IO_Running` and `Replica_SQL_Running` are both `Yes`.
    - Something isn't quite right. Can you figure out how to fix this? There may be a few things that need to be fixed. Use `SHOW REPLICA STATUS\G` to find out what is wrong. Can you see the `cyfdb` database on the replica? Keep a log of all commands you are executing on each server while troubleshooting this.
