Hello, Anyone here run mysqlhotcopy? I've read the docs on it but they are basicly just a howto and don't go too in depth. I've got a DB that is the back end to a 24/7 application. I ususally do backups from a replicated db by shutting down the Replicated DB then doing a tar are all the db files, then starting the db when done. Does mysqlhotcopy allow you to take a full snapshot of the db without needing to shut it down? What happens to read writes and updates while mysqlhotcopy is running?
Any info or experiences anyone has would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jeff -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
