MySQL version: 3.23.58
Each week I make a hotcopy of numerous database files. I tar them and gzip them, and move them to an archive machine.
I then use a second machine to read from the archive, untar and ungzip the files, and presto! I have exact copies of my databases running on a backup server.
I even prove that the MyISAM files are the same using MD5 checksums.
Then why do I get different results from the queries?
The copied tables are sometimes missing weeks worth of data, even though the MyISAM files appear to be identical. Strange, eh!?
