RE: moving database to new server

mysqlhotcopy is a perl script that came with your disto of mysql. If you have 
mysql installed on another machine then you probably already have it (I've 
never installed it without it being there).

Subject: moving database to new server



Hello, list --

Quick (and simple?) question:

I've been backing my databases up with a perl tool mysqlhotcopy. It seems 
to leave me a bunch of files in a folder I specified.

What is the best way to move this database function to a different machine? 
There are no constraints. I can take it all down, whatever. Copy the files from 
the database, or use the 'hot' copies?

Any takers?

Cheers,
