Not to add insult to injury, but keeping backups on the same machine and
media your databases are installed on is asking for trouble. And power
outages are predictable, so UPS protection is critical. Enough said.
I would speculate that one or more of the files in the /data/mysql/ folder
were open
Not a direct answer to your question here, but why keep backups on the same
server and in the same storage medium?
