Hello!
JC> I am also in a similar upgrade situation, but I was thinking that all we
JC> need to do to TRANSFER a db is just zip up the db files *.MYD, *.MYI, and
JC> *.frm? This method worked for me transporting my db's from one mysql server
JC> to another. Is this an "ok" method of transfering db? Or are there some
JC> flaws/risks/incorrectness involved as opposed to dumping?
JC> Thanks,
JC> -Jon
this method safe too but my safest.
If you need garanties - do mysqldump cause you always
can see what inside dump - it's just plaintext file.
