I'm looking at different ways to backup a database from a solaris 2.8 box to a solaris
2.7 one. In addition to the standard system backups that our sysadmins do during the
week, I want to do a full backup of the database to a box where I have much more disk
space than the one where the production mysql database sits. Aside from rcp'ing the
database, does mysqldump have the abiltiy to backup to another box? I don't see
anything in the options -- except for --host maybe -- that allows this sort of thing.
Thanks,
Brian
