Package: wnpp * Package name : mylvmbackup Version : 0.5 Upstream Author : [EMAIL PROTECTED] * URL : http://lenz.homelinux.org/mylvmbackup/ * License : GPL Programming Lang: Perl Description : quickly creating backups of MySQL server's data files
To perform a backup, mylvmbackup obtains a read lock on all tables and flushes all server caches to disk, makes an LVM snapshot of the volume containing the MySQL data directory, and unlocks the tables again. The snapshot process takes only a small amount of time. When it is done, the server can continue normal operations, while the actual file backup proceeds. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
