not in the general case, since purge or the insert buffer merge may still be
running. You must wait that the status of the InnoDB main thread is 'Waiting
for server activity'. Then, if you are sure that clients are not doing
anything (calling COMMIT, for example), then probably all the buffer pool
data has been flushed to files, nothing is being written to the ib_logfiles.
I am not absolutely sure about this, I would need to check the code in
log0log.c and srv0srv.c. You can then copy the data files and ib_logfiles
as-is. To be safe, best that you check also the modification times of the
files after copying them. Check that they did not change while you were
copying.
