I'm currently running MySQL on RedHat 7.2 and now I'm in the processing of finishing testing a new server which has SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9. My question is my database currently resides on RH7.2 and MySQL-server-4.0.13-0. I want to install the latest version on the SUSE system but I believe this to be Version: 4.0.18 Release: 32.20 (this is with Service Pack 3 from Novell). How do I do a backup of the existing and restore to the current? Are there any changes that may cause my apps to have a fit?
Seeing that you're moving from 4.0.x to a 4.0.x, its highly unlikely that any of yours apps should have a fit.
You might fancy reading: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/disaster-prevention.html (our backup and recovery guide)
If you fancy performing an upgrade to a newer version, do pay http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/upgrade.html a visit as well.
