Re: GPL online backup for innodb tables

2003-01-27 Thread Salvatore Enrico Indiogine 
Heikki:

1. I am reading Managing and using MySQL from O'Reilly.

The book suggests (page 74) to use the -opt option, but that will make
the db go offline for all practically purposes.

Could I just use:

$ mysqldump --flush-logs mydb  /opt/backup/mydb

and have complete recovery and my users still able to connect to the
database, like in Oracle?

2. Could I use mysqlhotcopy with innodb?

$ mysqlhotcopy --flushlog mydb /opt/backup

I am not interested in portability of the files only that my users can
connect to the db and that I can do a complete (last commit) recovery of
the db.

Thanks for your reply.

Ciao,
Enrico

 Subject: GPL online backup for innodb tables
 
 
  Greetings!
 
  I would like to know whether in MySQL I can do an online (hot) backup of
  innodb type tables using a 'free' (GPL) tool.  Or even if it is possible
  by writing my own shell script as you can do in Oracle with:
 
  alter tablespace tablespace_name_1 begin backup;
 
  then use cp to copy the tablespace file
 
  alter tablespace tablespace_name_1 end backup;
 
  alter tablespace tablespace_name_2 begin backup;
 
  and so on for all tablespaces.
 
 
 mysqldump is one.
 
 InnoDB Hot Backup is a way to make binary backups whose restoration is
 faster than table dumps.
 
 
  Thanks in advance.

OBDC and MySQL 4.0.5a

2002-12-09 Thread Salvatore Enrico Indiogine 
Greetings:

I installed MySQL 4.0.5a using the RPMs downloaded from
http://www.mysql.com on RedHat 8.0.

I also installed unixODBC that comes with the RHL 8.0 CD.

When I try to install the MySQL odbc driver I get the unresolved
dependency:

libmysqlclient.so.10

I created a symlink from libmysqlclient.so.11 to 10 but it still does
not work.

I got it only to work by downgrading from MySQL 4 to 3.

Is there a way of having ODBC working with MySQL-4.0.5a?

Thanks in advance!
