Backup and restore tips

Making a Copy of a Database

shell> mysqldump db1 > dump.sql
shell> mysqladmin create db2
shell> mysql db2 < dump.sql

You can load the dump file back into the server like this:

shell> mysqldump db_name > backup-file.sql
shell> mysql db_name < backup-file.sql

backup all databases in one file (eventually add the option --add-locks):

mysqldump -u username -p -all-databases > file.sql

backup all databases in one gzipped file:

mysqldump -u username -p -all-databases | gzip > file.sql.gz

restore all databases:

mysql -u username -p < file.sql
