Hi. I’m new to xtrabackup.
I’ve tried to use the following command but the result is not compressed:
xtrabackup –backup –compress-method=bzip
- How to get compressed backup? What is the command?
- What is the command to get incremental backup?
Thanks

I haven’t found a system requirements area – Will this run on CentOS 3.9 32 bit? Apparently the only rmp’s you have are rhel4.x86_64.rpm so I suspect not?

John,
There are no available packages neither for centos3 nor for 32bit platform.
You should instead build xtrabackup from teh source code.

Bill,
See the chapter “Compressed backup” on http://www.percona.com/docs/wiki/percona-xtrabackup:xtrabackup_manual#innobackupex_script . There is detailed instruction with an example.
