MySQL Enterprise Backup User's Guide (Version 3.11.1)
This section lists any performance-related features and settings in specific MySQL Server versions that affect various aspects of the backup process.
Some new MySQL 5.6 features introduce changes in directory layout and file contents for InnoDB tables. Backing up servers that use these features requires MySQL Enterprise Backup 3.8.1 or higher:
innodb_page_size
configuration option.
innodb_undo_directory
,
innodb_undo_logs
, and
innodb_undo_tablespaces
configuration options.
innodb_checksum_algorithm
configuration option.
DATA DIRECTORY
clause of the
CREATE TABLE
statement, which
produces a .isl file in
the database directory and stores the
.ibd file in a
user-specified location.
See MySQL Enterprise Backup 3.9 Release Notes for details on the fixes and enhancements related to these MySQL 5.6 features.
