Re: Separate dbs on separate partitions?

2002-09-09 Thread Michael T. Babcock

See the FAQ; but basically, use symlinks.

/var/mysql/database1 - /disk1/database1
/var/mysql/database2 - /disk2/database2

... or just mount /var/mysql/database1 as another partition.

/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql stop
cd /var/mysql
tar -czf database.tar.gz database1
rm -rf database1
mkdir database1
mount /dev/sda2 database1
tar -zxf database.tar.gz
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql start

Shut down the server.
Copy the database directory to the other drive
Make a symlink to the moved directory in the server's data directory
Restart the server

Doesn't work for InnoDB tables, which are managed in the InnoDB tablespace.


OS is linux.

Thanks
