Hi All,
We have a MySQL 5.0 server (master) running on Windows. For backup, I
wish to setup another system with same version of MySQL to act as
backup / slave. But this slave can not have direct access to the
master. Is there a way I can achive this? I do not wish to take a full
dump in master. Would it work, if I take the binary replication logs
manually from master and "provide" it to slave? Any other way to
achieve desired results.
You could copy the binary logs to the slave manually, then run mysqlbinlog on them and
pipe the output directly into the slave:
mysqlbinlog master.log | mysql -h slave
I have never tried it, but you should be able to copy the binlogs and start the slave
from a certain position in them (pretending that they are relay logs, as though the I/O
thread had copied them). Look at the manual page for CHANGE MASTER TO.
Other options: copy files from the master (rsync may help make this more efficient),
data synchronizing programs (http://forums.mysql.com/list.php?27)
