Recovering to an alternate MySQL Server

Similar to the plug-in’s ability to restore databases or individual tables to a different MySQL Instance on the same MySQL Server, you can target a different MySQL Server during the restore process. This option is used during disaster recovery operations.

To accomplish this process, perform the steps outlined in the following topics.

Before conducting a relocation restore to a different MySQL Server, review this list of known limitations and intended uses for this operation.

The following prerequisites must be met before a restore of this type can be set up and run.

Existing and target machines must have the same Installation configurations: Both machines must have the following established, regarding MySQL:
NetVault Backup software and Plug‑in for MySQL installed on all clients: NetVault Backup, Client or Server version, and the plug-in must be installed and configured on both machines in use for this process, that is, the existing MySQL machine and the new restore target.
All Client machines added to the NetVault Backup Server: With all software installation requirements met, the target NetVault Backup Client machines must be added to the NetVault Backup Server through the NetVault Backup WebUI, that is, the existing MySQL machine and the new restore target.
Instance of MySQL must exist on the new restore target: The relocation process requires that an instance of MySQL exists on the new restore target. This instance serves as the target of the relocation restore. This instance must be properly set up and configured in MySQL, and you must add it to the plug-in on the new restore target — follow the steps outlined in Configuring the plug-in.
IMPORTANT: Note the following values in the instance’s Configure dialog box on the new restore target: Username, Password, and Instance Name.

During setup of a relocation restore, the plug-in requires that you enter these values on the Options tab to gain proper access to the targeted MySQL Instance.

Running the restore

With the prerequisites met, perform the following steps to restore a MySQL backup to a different machine.

Working with native MySQL replication

Using the plug-in in a native environment: an overview

When you are using replication, all updates to the tables that are replicated should be performed on the master server. Otherwise, you must avoid conflicts between updates that users make to tables on the master and updates that they make to tables on the slave.

Replication offers benefits for robustness, speed, and system administration:

Plug‑in for MySQL supports backup and recovery of single-master replication environments.
