Ask the MySQL server to Flush it, then not access its tables until further notice. > You can't "turn off" the database.. Can this please be written? It offers big benefits for little effort. > You can make backup of the database and then drop the database.. > Why do you want to do it? We have a similar need. We have a client with 16 branches. Each branch runs the same software, using the same server. Each branch has its own database. When maintenance is necessary, it would be far better to be able to: 1. turn off one database, 2. use myisamchk, Unix or other applications to adjust it in any way, 3. turn it back on. That way, the other 15 branches can continue normal operations while the maintenance occurs on the one.
