Re: Backup, move, restore..?

Hi Taylor

To quote from MySQL (2nd ED) by Dubois (pg 725) - InnoDB and BDB tables can
be dumped using mysqldump, just like any other kind of tables.

So the answer is: nope nothing different.

 OKay, thanks, any idea if something has to be done differently for
 InnoDB tables?

 Hi Taylor

 While I have only used mysqldump to backup MyIsam files, I have found
 the
 process to be fairly painless. Mysqldump creates batch f iles which
 effectively rebuild your database structure + database data. To restore
 the
 data all you need to do is run the backup files as a batch file i.e. :

 mysql -u root -p your_destination_db_name  your_backup_file_name

 Then sit back and wait

  Hi all. I am needing to do a backup of two smalldatabases, both live
 on
  the same server and under the same Mysql binary installation...
 
  I would like to back them up, dump them into a file(s), make my
 move,
  install the same database, and then restore/load this dumped
  information
  back into the new database.
 
  I am using mysql-max 4.0.13 on HP-UX 11.00, 64 bit... I am also
 using
  some InnoDB tables...
 
  Is it as simple as doing mysqldumps and taring/zipping up those
 files?
  If so, how do I load these files back into the new database?
 
  Thanks
