Have a look at mysqlsnapshot: http://jeremy.zawodny.com/mysql/ It's designed for MyISAM files, but it could be modified for BDB pretty easily (I'd love the patch). > 2.

Same answer. :-) > 3. Related to (1), what's the best way to do recovery on BDB tables using > the MySQL binary logs + BDB table snapshot + BDB logs? I've read the manual > but could not find such info :) Look at the mysqlbinlog command. It turns a binary log into something you can pipe back thru the mysql command-line tool. Jeremy -- Jeremy D.
