1. 查看当前支持的存储引擎

mysql> show engines;

+--------------------+---------+----------------------------------------------------------------+--------------+------+------------+
| Engine             | Support | Comment                                                        | Transactions | XA   | Savepoints |
+--------------------+---------+----------------------------------------------------------------+--------------+------+------------+
| MRG_MYISAM         | YES     | Collection of identical MyISAM tables                          | NO           | NO   | NO         |
| CSV                | YES     | CSV storage engine                                             | NO           | NO   | NO         |
| MyISAM             | YES     | MyISAM storage engine                                          | NO           | NO   | NO         |
| BLACKHOLE          | YES     | /dev/null storage engine (anything you write to it disappears) | NO           | NO   | NO         |
| MEMORY             | YES     | Hash based, stored in memory, useful for temporary tables      | NO           | NO   | NO         |
| PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA | YES     | Performance Schema                                             | NO           | NO   | NO         |
| ARCHIVE            | YES     | Archive storage engine                                         | NO           | NO   | NO         |
| FEDERATED          | NO      | Federated MySQL storage engine                                 | NULL         | NULL | NULL       |
| InnoDB             | DEFAULT | Supports transactions, row-level locking, and foreign keys     | YES          | YES  | YES        |
+--------------------+---------+----------------------------------------------------------------+--------------+------+------------+

2.查看表使用的存储引擎

mysql> show table status from 数据库 where name='表名' \G  #方法一
*************************** 1. row ***************************Name: 表名Engine: InnoDB  #存储引擎类型Version: 10Row_format: CompactRows: 2Avg_row_length: 8192Data_length: 16384
Max_data_length: 0Index_length: 0Data_free: 0Auto_increment: 3Create_time: 2015-07-21 10:51:48Update_time: NULLCheck_time: NULLCollation: utf8_general_ciChecksum: NULLCreate_options: Comment: mysql> show create table test \G    #方法二
*************************** 1. row ***************************Table: test
Create Table: CREATE TABLE `test` (`tid` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,`tname` char(30) DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8

3.修改表引擎方法

mysql> alter table test engine=innodb;

4.设置默认引擎

1)修改配置文件my.cnf中的 [mysqld]选项 加入 default-storage-engine=INNODB #设置innodb为默认引擎

2)重启mysql服务器：

#mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown

或者

#service mysqld restart
