Greetings!

I would like to know whether in MySQL I can do an online (hot) backup of
innodb type tables using a 'free' (GPL) tool.  Or even if it is possible
by writing my own shell script as you can do in Oracle with:

alter tablespace <tablespace_name_1> begin backup;

then use cp to copy the tablespace file

alter tablespace <tablespace_name_1> end backup;

alter tablespace <tablespace_name_2> begin backup;

and so on for all tablespaces.  


Thanks in advance.

Enrico
