I've quick-tested this on deleuze, and mysql immediately created additional files in the new datadir: ib_logfile0 ib_logfile1 ibdata1 mysql_upgrade.info Do the 0, 1 etc. mean mysql will create more files with higher numbers in there, or this is it? Maybe we could live with those four if mysql will not attempt to delete/recreate them at some point (or create new ones). _______________________________________________ HCoop-SysAdmin mailing list [email protected] http://hcoop.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hcoop-sysadmin
