Description

The following strategy can be used to backup db-B:

The first two steps can be done as easily as the script currently in /root/support/backup:

1	#!/bin/sh
2
3	# -------------------------------------------------------------
4	# Backup MariaDB or MySQL databases
5	# - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
6	# Project: Nasqueron

8	# -------------------------------------------------------------
9
10	set -e
11
12	BACKUP_DIR=/var/backups/db
13
14	# -------------------------------------------------------------
15	# Ensure user is root
16	#
17	# Note: POSIX shells don't always define $UID or $EUID.
18	# - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
19
20	if [ "${EUID:-$(id -u)}" -ne 0 ]; then
21	echo "This command must be run as root." >&2
22	exit 1
23	fi
24
25	# -------------------------------------------------------------
26	# Collect information
27	#
28	# :: Databases to dump
29	# :: Timestamp
30	# - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
31
32	DATABASES=$(mysql -Ns -e "show databases" \| grep -v -E 'information_schema\|performance_schema\|mysql-innodb-')
33	SUBDIR=$(hostname -s)-$(date +"%s")
34
35	# -------------------------------------------------------------
36	# Backup
37	# - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
38
39	mkdir "$BACKUP_DIR/$SUBDIR"
40
41	for database in $DATABASES; do
42	mysqldump $database \| gzip > "$BACKUP_DIR/$SUBDIR/$database.sql.gz"
43	done
