MySQL Administrator :: 8.1 Introduction

This section allows you to view and manage the current connections to the server (also called threads). If you have the PROCESS privilege, you can see all threads. If you have the SUPER privilege, you can also terminate threads other than your own. (Note that the SUPER privilege is available for MySQL servers as of version 4.0.3 only.) Otherwise, you can see your own threads only. You can find more information about threads in the SHOW PROCESSLIST section. For more information on the PROCESS and the SUPER privilege (and other available privileges as well), see Privileges Provided by MySQL.

Note that you will see an additional thread for the user under which you are connected when you have clicked the Health section within your current MySQL Administrator session. The values displayed in that section are retrieved from the MySQL server via a separate connection.
