RE: [PHP-DB] How do I backup my MySQL database? asks a Newbie.

2001-06-22 Thread Jonathan Hilgeman

I run different mySQL servers and frequently use them to back up the others
(i.e. I'll use ServerTwo to hold a backup of ServerOne's data in case
ServerOne goes down), so I wrote a few functions to help copying databases
between servers for backups, and to manage databases and tables on single
servers, as well. That might help you.

It's all in a single function library I called dbUtils. Just open up the
file in a text editor, define as many servers as you want, and run the
function you need. You can get it by going to

Install phpMyAdmin and this will give you a web interface to manage your 
DB. You can do a dump of your database using it.

I am only new at this, but I have discovered one thing: I love php and
mysql!

I now have a couple of tables of information in a MySQL database.  The site
is run by my ISP so I don't have control of the server.

My question is:  how do I via php/mysql make a backup of the entire
database
so that I can restore it again should the worst happen and the server goes
down?

I would really appreciate your comments on this!
