112 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Please can anyone help me understand the wierd tables in the mysql system database other than the usual ones which are present.
Also these tables have columns of type longblob for example:
MariaDB [mysql]> describe zmbics32;
+-------+----------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+-------+----------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| data | longblob | YES | | NULL | |
+-------+----------+------+-----+---------+-------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
My question is this something a mariadb behaviour or an application behavious.
I have checked with the application team and they are convinced that it is not the application creating these tables.
Please shed some light.
Thanks in advance

Answer 1

All tables other than the usual system tables must have been created by either some application or user outside server. The following options (if enabled) can help you understand when/who/how these tables were created :
General query log
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
Audit log plugin
