I have database of the size 4gb that i would like to import into DO Mysql managed database.
I tried using mysqlimport with multiple threads but having trouble getting the process to start
mysqlimport: Error: 1227 Access denied; you need (at least one of) the SUPER, SYSTEM_VARIABLES_ADMIN or SESSION_VARIABLES_ADMIN privilege(s) for this operation
it seems the default user doesnt have enough access to run it
