In the following example, we back up an entire MySQL instance to
a single file using the
backup-to-image
command, which
appears at the end of the sample command. We specify some of the
connection information for the database using the
--user
and --host
options
(and, with the --password
option, tell
mysqlbackup to prompt for a user password).
The location and filename for the single-file backup is
specified using the --backup-image
option, and the location for an empty folder to store temporary
files is supplied with the
--backup-dir
option.
The output echoes all the parameters used by the backup operation, including several that are retrieved automatically using the database connection. The unique ID for this backup job is recorded in special tables that mysqlbackup creates inside the MySQL instance, allowing you to monitor long-running backups and view information on previous backups. The final output section repeats the location of the backup data and provides the LSN values that you might use when you perform an incremental backup next time over the full backup that has just been made.
$ mysqlbackup --user=mysqlbackup --password --host=127.0.0.1 --backup-image=/home/mysqlbackup/backups/my.mbi \
