Name : mylvmbackup Product : Fedora 19 Version : 0.15 Release : 2.fc19 URL : http://www.lenzg.net/mylvmbackup/ Summary : Utility for creating MySQL backups via LVM snapshots Description : mylvmbackup is a tool for quickly creating full physical backups of a MySQL server's data files. To perform a backup, mylvmbackup obtains a read lock on all tables and flushes all server caches to disk, makes an LVM snapshot of the volume containing the MySQL data directory, and unlocks the tables again. The snapshot process takes only a small amount of time. When it is done, the server can continue normal operations, while the actual file backup proceeds.
