Dear Friends

I am new in this list
I am using mysql on linux

My problem is about the backup of mysql database

We are having 50 Databases and each database is of
minimum of 300 MB in size and maximum of 2 G.B size

I am planning to take incremental backup of the
database
For that i am planning to use mysqldump,But i m bit
doughtful about the mysqldump because the size of the
database is very huge
I tried but it's taking a lot of time


funny you asked that my question is similar so I'll group it with this one, hope you don't mind.

Hello all,

   I have been using mysqldump -a to backup my clients sites.
I have discovered a problem with this aproach. I decided to
try and restore it with mysqlimport on my local hd and it'll
restore it up to a certian point then stop. What I'm looking
for is any other recomendations to backup and restore 71
databases. Any scripts for backing it all up will of course
be welcom as well. second off, how do I wipe these old
databases off my puter :)

thnx,


Hi,


You should not use mysqlimport to restore a backup made with
mysqldump; use mysql instead.
Check:
http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/mysqldump.html

I am quite surprised that you could restore anything with mysqlimport :(

Regards,
Joseph Bueno
