Option 1 will be too load intensive I guess :-)
Option 2, while good, there isn't a need for.
Option 3, NOW you're talking.
So.. just to be clear, the files I would need to copy is...
/mysql/TEST_TABLE
-> db.opt
-- > *.ibd
-- > *.frm
/mysql/ib_logfile0
/mysql/ib_logfile1
/mysql/ibdata1
I use innodb_file_per_table = 1
Thanks
