Although 0 is normal value for global variable {some_status_variable}, but tool is pausing.
Doc for --max-load say that pt-online-schema-change "pause if any status variables are higher than their thresholds", nothing about zero value.
So, how use --max-load with variables that can take zero value in normal state of db?
I think that trouble in this line of code:
https://github.com/percona/percona-toolkit/blob/2.2/bin/pt-online-schema-change#L5188
pt-online-schema-change --version
pt-online-schema-change 2.2.19
Console command:
pt-online-schema-change --alter 'drop column test' --charset 'utf8' --host 127.0.0.1 --port 32768 --user 'root' --password 'owoxsql' --max-load Threads_running=400,wsrep_flow_control_recv=1,wsrep_local_send_queue=1 --critical-load Threads_running=400 --null-to-not-null --no-check-alter --execute --alter-foreign-keys-method none --force --statistics D=test,t=test
Output:
No slaves found. See --recursion-method if host dcc369b9be1d has slaves.
Not checking slave lag because no slaves were found and --check-slave-lag was not specified.

Not updating foreign keys because --alter-foreign-keys-method=none. Foreign keys that reference the table will no longer work.
