rsync - Oct 2011 - Require Information

Hi there!

 

I would like to ask kindly for some further information concerning Rsync
software.

What I am planning to do is to replicate data (database) at certain
intervals.

My first question is, can I do this with Rsync?

To be more specific I have a mysql database at a point and I want this
database to be replicated to a remote side at real-time.

In other words I need to setup a backup process for this database in real
time. 

Could anyone tell me if I can do this with Rsync and give me a clue how can
I implement this?

Thanks in advance.

 

Regards,

Hi,

the problem is to lock the databases to get a consistent backup.

You'd be better off asking http://www.google.de/#q=mysql+backup .
Maybe using a simple mysqldump + transferring the dump to a backup server would
meet your requirements (for this, you could use rsync, of course ;-).

Have a nice day,
Berny
