Right... if even a fraction of that is true (I have no reason to doubt you, but 
I can also not verify any of it, obviously), that is imo certainly something to 
take up with a list moderator (Shawn ?). That kind of behaviour is unacceptable.

True; but new people on the list may not have seen that.

Again, true; but I can well imagine scenarios with relatively huge datadirs and 
very stringent uptime requirements, so you only get the one window to take the 
system down and cold-copy the datafiles. And, yes, that's what slaves are for, 
but if there is no existing slave you run into the same problem again.

Circumstances vary, and asking doesn't hurt on most mailing lists :-p

Interesting - what changes did you have to make? I would expect most things to 
just keep working as they are, unless you were using something like the 
Federated engine that got disabled by default quite a while ago.

Little/big endianness, for one, although I seem to recall, and your later mail

Intel years ago anyway.


we discussed this multiple times here


There's no issue in this case; but it's not always as simple as 'same software, 
same binary files'.


that's why you try things out - takes not longer than write 3 mails and 
since you don't touch the original data no risk involved



One thing that is worth looking at, however, is users with the IP/hostname of 
the old host in them - those may need to be changed if the related software is 
also moved.

Also, some Linux distributions do specific setup - Debian, for one, sets up a 
debian-sys-maint user that gets used for clean startup/shutdown/upgrade tasks. 
Both copying over the datafiles and importing a mysqldump from the old db will 
destroy that user entry, so it needs to be recreated manually afterwards. Other 
distributions may or may not have their own quirks.


as said copy it to the new machine and you are done - why do people
these days not just try out things, look if it works and when it don't
asking questions?


Eh. Sometimes it's comforting to get someone else's opinion before messing with 
production systems you're not an expert on


really?

when you *copy* the datadir on the target machine nobody eats your data

Little/big endianness, for one, although I seem to recall, and your later mail 
confirms, that that is not an issue for MySQL datafiles - and Mac has gone 
Intel years ago anyway.

Some software, but again, not MySQL, also writes datafiles differently 
depending on the architecture they're on. Had shenanigans some years ago simply 
moving (non-mysql) datafiles between 32- and 64-bit platforms.

There's no issue in this case; but it's not always as simple as 'same software, 
same binary files'.
