Re: backup databases one to another
This option involves two steps. First you have to export complete data and then import it again. You can do this more efficiently by using a sync tool like Webyog (www.webyog.com).

Re: backup databases one to another
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/replication.html I would look into the replication features of MySQL. They can be used to create a backup copy of a database. The slave database server will only get the changes from the Master as needed. Karam Chand wrote: This option involves two steps. First you have to export complete data and then import it again.

We use mysqldump. It is fast and easy. restoration is not hard. If you want more a more percise restoration option, look at using the change-log.

We use mybackup.pl - a perl script found on sourceforge (well, not anymore I just looked). It creates a compressed tarball of each database, with a file for each table. The files can be used with the mysql client without change to rebuild a table. It also can be setup to rotate the backups based on date.

Re: backup databases
Maybe... after some long hours and many lines. I am not sure. I know it won't necessarilly be easy. You'd be better off using PERL. You can download the windows binary of PERL for free. (www.perl.org) You can install PERL anywhere you want on the system just so long as your PERL scripts point at the PERL.EXE executable. -RG On Tue, 2 Apr 2002, Mark Stringham wrote: Could I run something similar as a BAT file? -Original Message- From: Russell E Glaue [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Mark Stringham [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Rodney Broom [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Tuesday, April 02, 2002 4:25 PM Subject: Re: backup databases On Tue, 2 Apr 2002, Mark Stringham wrote: What would the script look like if I'm on Win2k ?

Re: backup databases
forgot to mention. you'll have to use ZIP, since TAR is not available on Windows (unless you use the previously mentioned software packages). -RG On Tue, 2 Apr 2002, Russell E Glaue wrote: Maybe... after some long hours and many lines.

Re: backup databases
What would the script look like if I'm on Win2k ? Good luck!! Don't listen to the naysayers @echo off set zdate=%date% set zdate=%zdate: =% set zdate=%zdate:/=-% C:\mysql\bin\mysqldump -A E:\mysqlDataBackup\%zdate%.txt save as a .bat and put it in the scheduler. Mine runs every hour. But seriously; there is a $300 software package out there (can't remember name) that will give your billy-boy OS some unix shell-like capabilities, including TAR if you need to compress the files email me off-list. - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?
