Full Version: Is It Possible To Backup Databases Here?
Hi, I'm wondering is it possible to back up Databases, just in case anything happens? I tried searching for it but nobody got their question answered.
PHPMyAdmin -> export.

You can use mysqldump to create a simple backup of your database using the following syntax which is elaborated below.
QUOTE
mysqldump -u [username] -p [password] [databasename] > [backupfile.sql]
[username] - this is your database username
[password] - this is the password for your database
[databasename] - the name of your database
[backupfile.sql] - the file to which the backup should be written.
[username] - this is your database username
[password] - this is the password for your database
[databasename] - the name of your database
[backupfile.sql] - the file to which the backup should be written.
That requires ssh access, which you don't have.

Are there any specific options we need to check, or is it just a simple "Export -> Select database -> OK" ?
