mariabackup Explained!

In this sql tutorial we’ll walk you through mariabackup. The mariabackup script lets you backup a SQL database running MariaDB and can be used very easily:
$ mariabackup –backup –target-dir=/tmp/backups/ [–user=root –password=strongpassword]

Keep in mind that you can also avoid specifying the “–user” and “–password” options if you specify them in my.cnf or my.ini for security reasons (usernames and passwords provided via the CLI can be observed in the command history.)

There are a couple of mariabackup options available. These include, but are not limited to:
–backup that backs up your MariaDB database.
–target-dir lets mariabackup know which directory you would like to put the backup in.
–user and –password options are the username and password of your MariaDB user.

To restore a sql backup taken by mariadump, you first need to prepare the backup by using the –prepare option:
ariabackup –prepare –target-dir=/tmp/backups/

Then perform a mariabackup restore with the –copy-back option like so:
mariabackup –copy-back –target-dir=/var/lib/mariadb/data/

As far as mariabackup vs mysqldump is concerned, the tools are very similar, but each of them has their own differences. Users of mariabackup should know how to act with mysqldump and vice versa.
If you get an error like mariabackup command not found, keep in mind that mariabackup is a tool separate from MariaDB server and MySQL Server and that it needs to be installed separately as well.

To mariabackup restore single database, stop MariaDB, empty the data directory, then employ mariabackup with the –copy-back option.

mariabackup download is available in any Linux architecture: simply install mariadb-backup to install the mariabackup script.

The footage for this sql tutorial was also filmed near the tenerife sea (tenerife ocean), and is not very far from tenerife siam park. If you want us to put a tenerife vlog or tenerife live webcam instead of the tenerife footage you see on your screen, comment below.

We have a lot of content from tenerife los cristianos, tenerife los gigantes, tenerife los americas, tenerife los cristianos beach, and many more areas on the island, so we can show you around the Tenerife Canary Islands while you enjoy our sql tutorial too!
