hi there,
I cannot get MySQL fifo backups to work. If I run the
backup job it hangs forever waiting for the input. If I
run the job manually from the shell it works without
problems. What is going on?
My job and fileset definition are as follows:
Job {
Name = "MyDatabaseFull"
JobDefs = "DefaultBackup"
FileSet = "MyDatabaseFileSet"
Write Bootstrap = "/backup/bootstrap/MyDatabase"
ClientRunBeforeJob = "/backup/scripts/MyDatabase before"
ClientRunAfterJob = "/backup/scripts/MyDatabase after"
Priority = 20
}
FileSet {
Name = "MyDatabaseFileSet"
Include {
Options {
signature = SHA1
compression = GZIP
readfifo = yes
}
File = "/backup/fifo/MyDatabase"
}
}
The script being called:
#!/bin/sh
database=mydb
user=root
password="***"
fifo=/backup/fifo/MyDatabase
case "$1" in
before)
echo Before backup job processing...
rm -f $fifo 2>&1 < /dev/null
mkfifo $fifo 2>&1 < /dev/null
echo Dumping $database to fifo: $fifo
mysqldump --user=$user --password=$password $database & > $fifo 2>&1 <
/dev/null
echo Done.
;;
after)
echo After backup job processing...
rm -f $fifo 2>&1 < /dev/null
echo Done.
;;
esac
regards
Frank
