anybody know whether (and how) it's possible to have one server acting as a backup-server for various other servers, so that it basically does am incremental backup of ONE database on the to-be-backed-up server?
i was guessing to tell the backup-server to act as a slave for the various master-servers, but couldn't find anything in the manual explaining whether (or how) this is possible..
if using mysql's replication-feature is not an option for doing this, does anybody have any experience doing this the 'manual' way? my "plan B" is to simply download the bin-log every day via ftp, delete it on the to-be-backed-up-servers, and read it in at the backup-server.
thanks for any help,
Moritz.
P.S.: if this is the wrong list for this question, then ehich list would be appropiate?
