Hi, You can try mysql-zrm community edition.
For more details see - http://www.zmanda.com/backup-mysql.html http://mysqlbackup.zmanda.com/ Taking raw backup with snapshot (you should have database on a snapshot volume) will help, this is done in mysql-zrm using mysqlhotcopy. Using mysql-zrm-scheduler, backup's can be scheduled. Adjust it before amdump. In this case, the destination directory of mysql-zrm-backup will be the disklist entry in amanda configuration.
