SHOW SLAVE STATUS
If the syntax for a given SHOW statement includes a LIKE 'pattern'
Part, 'pattern' is a string that can contain the SQL `%' and` _'
Wildcard characters. The pattern is useful for restricting statement
Output to matching values.
Several SHOW statements also accept a WHERE clause that provides more
Flexibility in specifying which rows to display. See
