if i want to backup a server running a mysql-db and i just backup all the mysql-db-files, do i risk to save a corrupted version? i read in the manual about the VSS problematic and save state in RDBMS on windows, but in my case, the mysql db runs on linux.
You can't.
i dont want to dump the mysql-dbs before the backup, because this would take days...
Make a MysQL slave server and do a fulldump each month (or week) and then backup all binlogs every day.
