My script backuping up alla databases which is in my datadir.
It's works for me.
#!/bin/sh
USER=root
PASSWORD=somepassword
BACKUPTYPE=daily
if [ -x $BACKUPTYPE ]
then
echo "$0 <Backup typ>"
exit 0
fi
for i in `ls /var/mysql|grep -E -v ".pid|.err"` ; do
DB=$i ; DATE=$BACKUPTYPE ; rm -rf/home/backup/mysql/$DB\_$DATE.sql.gz ;
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqldump -u $USER -p$PASSWORD --opt $DB
>/home/backup/mysql/$DB\_$DATE.sql ; /bin/gzip /home/backup/mysql/$DB\_$DATE.sql
if [ ! -x $2 ]
then
echo "Backing up: $i"
fi
done
