MySQL Enterprise Backup User's Guide (Version 3.12.5)
Restore a compressed directory backup at
<backupDir> to
<restoreDir> on the server using
copy-back-and-apply-log
and the --uncompress option:
Example 5.7 Restoring a Compressed Backup
mysqlbackup --defaults-file=<my.cnf> -uroot --backup-dir=<backupDir> --datadir=<restoreDir> \ --uncompress copy-back-and-apply-log
To restore a compressed and
prepared directory
backup created with the
backup-and-apply-log command
(which is only supported for MySQL Enterprise Backup 3.12.3 and later), use the
copy-back command and
the --uncompress option:
mysqlbackup --defaults-file=<my.cnf> -uroot --backup-dir=<backupDir> --datadir=<restoreDir> \ --uncompress copy-back
To restore a compressed backup image named
<image_name>, use the
copy-back-and-apply-log
command and the
--uncompress option,
with the --backup-dir option
specifying a temporary directory into which temporary output,
status files, and backup metadata will be saved:
mysqlbackup --defaults-file=<my.cnf> -uroot --backup-image=<image_name> \ --backup-dir=<backupTmpDir> --datadir=<restoreDir> --uncompress copy-back-and-apply-log
See Section 4.3.3, “Making a Compressed Backup” and Section 14.6, “Compression Options” for more details on compressed backups.
