Hi,

We'd like to be able to move certain innodb databases between machines (some, but not all). This would help greatly with resyncing slaves and for fast backups. I know that we can create table-spaces on a per-table basis as described here.

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/multiple-tablespaces.html

It also says that we cannot freely move tables between database directories like in MyISAM, but we can restore backups of .ibd files. Is there any way to move the .ibd files from one machine to another? Is there dependency on the shared tablespace and the corresponding .ibd file?

i.e. can we copy a .ibd file to another machine and "import tablespace" on it?

Any input would be appreciated. thanks!

Brandon
