Hello. I recently installed MySQL and had a few questions in regard to the save directories. I see by default, MySQL saves the files in a /data/ folder on the main hard drive. What I am trying to setup is this: I have two hard drives on my computer. One is the main one where server installation files will be stored. The second one is where data files will be separated and be backed up via a RAID.
What would you say is the easy way to edit the MySQL config file to have it save to my second hard drive instead of the main one where MySQL is installed. Would I have to edit the mysql_config file? Any help or suggestions would be great. Ya know.. the ability to switch this around without screwing anything up major :) Thanks -- _______________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup 1 cent a minute calls anywhere in the U.S.! http://www.getpennytalk.com/cgi-bin/adforward.cgi?p_key=RG9853KJ&url=http://www.getpennytalk.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
