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.

John,

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

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?

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
