I am running hassio and I want to set up an external MySQL database for the recorder component. However, I’m wondering, if I do so… what then happens if the mySQL DB fails… does HASS quit? or does it just continue on and throw errors until I config it to use the SQLite DB again? or fix the MySQL DB? Any insight would be helpful in planning.
I just don’t want to add any instability to my hassio instance that runs very well on a Pi3. Just want to speed it up and bit by offloading the DB to a docker instance, elsewhere. Thanks.
