If +you +try to restore the backup after the keyring has been changed you’ll see +errors +like `ERROR 3185 (HY000): Can't find master key from keyring, please check +keyring plugin is loaded.` when trying to access an encrypted table. + +If you look at the `xtrabackup_checkpoints` file, you should see +contents similar to the following: + +``` +backup_type = full-backuped +from_lsn = 0 +to_lsn = 7666625 +last_lsn = 7666634 +compact = 0 +recover_binlog_info = 1 +``` + +Now that you have a full backup, you can make an incremental backup based +on it. Use a command such as the following: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/inc1 \ +--incremental-basedir=/data/backups/base \ +--keyring-file-data=/var/lib/mysql-keyring/keyring +``` + +**WARNING**: *xtrabackup* does not copy the keyring file into the backup +directory. To prepare the backup, you must copy the keyring file manually. + +If the +keyring has not been rotated you can use the same as the one you’ve +backed-up +with the base backup. If the keyring has been rotated, or you have +upgraded the plugin to a component, you must back up the keyring file. +Otherwise, you cannot prepare the backup. + +The `/data/backups/inc1/` directory should now contain delta files, such +as `ibdata1.delta` and `test/table1.ibd.delta`. These represent the +changes since the `LSN 7666625`. If you examine the +`xtrabackup_checkpoints` file in this directory, you should see +something similar to the following: + +``` +backup_type = incremental +from_lsn = 7666625 +to_lsn = 8873920 +last_lsn = 8873929 +compact = 0 +recover_binlog_info = 1 +``` + +Use this directory as the base for yet another incremental backup: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/inc2 \ +--incremental-basedir=/data/backups/inc1 \ +--keyring-file-data=/var/lib/mysql-keyring/keyring +``` + +### Prepare incremental backups + +The `--prepare` step for incremental backups is not the same as for +normal backups. In normal backups, two types of operations are performed to +make +the database consistent: committed transactions are replayed from the log +file +against the data files, and uncommitted transactions are rolled back. You +must +skip the rollback of uncommitted transactions when preparing a backup, +because +transactions that were uncommitted at the time of your backup may be in +progress, and it’s likely that they will be committed in the next +incremental +backup. You should use the `--apply-log-only` option to prevent the +rollback phase. + +**WARNING**: If you do not use the `--apply-log-only` option to prevent the +rollback phase, then your incremental backups are useless. After +transactions have been rolled back, further incremental backups cannot be +applied. + +Beginning with the full backup you created, you can prepare it and then +apply +the incremental differences to it. Recall that you have the following +backups: + +``` +/data/backups/base +/data/backups/inc1 +/data/backups/inc2 +``` + +To prepare the base backup, you need to run `--prepare` as usual, but +prevent the rollback phase: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --prepare --apply-log-only --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ +--keyring-file-data=/var/lib/mysql-keyring/keyring +``` + +The output should end with some text such as the following: + +``` +InnoDB: Shutdown completed; log sequence number 7666643 +InnoDB: Number of pools: 1 +160401 12:31:11 completed OK! +``` + +To apply the first incremental backup to the full backup, you should use +the +following command: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --prepare --apply-log-only --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ +--incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc1 \ +--keyring-file-data=/var/lib/mysql-keyring/keyring +``` + +**WARNING**: The backup should be prepared with the keyring file and type +that was used when backup was being +taken. This means that if the keyring has been rotated, or you have +upgraded +from a plugin to a component between the base and +incremental backup that you must use the keyring that was in use when +the first incremental backup has been taken. + +Preparing the second incremental backup is a similar process: apply the +deltas +to the (modified) base backup, and you will roll its data forward in +time to the point of the second incremental backup: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --prepare --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ +--incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc2 \ +--keyring-file-data=/var/lib/mysql-keyring/keyring +``` + +**NOTE**: `--apply-log-only` should be used when merging all +incremental backups except the last one. That’s why the previous line +does not +contain +the `--apply-log-only` option. Even if the `--apply-log-only` +was used on the last step, backup would still be consistent but in that +case +server would perform the rollback phase. + +The backup is now prepared and can be restored with `--copy-back` option. +In +case the keyring has been rotated you’ll need to restore the keyring which +was +used to take and prepare the backup. + +## Use the Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) + +This feature is *tech preview* quality. + +Percona XtraBackup 8.0.27-19 adds support for the Key Management +Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) which enables the communication between +the key management system and encrypted database server. + +Percona XtraBackup has no special requirements for backing up a database +that contains encrypted InnoDB tablespaces. + +Percona XtraBackup performs the following actions: + +1. Connects to the MySQL server + +2. Pulls the configuration + +3. Connects to the KMIP server + +4. Fetches the necessary keys from the KMIP server + +5. Stores the KMIP server configuration settings in the + `xtrabackup_component_keyring_kmip.cnf` file in the backup directory + +When preparing the backup, Percona XtraBackup connects to the KMIP server +with the settings from the `xtrabackup_component_keyring_kmip.cnf` file. + +## Restore a backup when the keyring is not available + +While the described restore method works, this method requires access to +the same +keyring that the server is using. It may not be possible if the backup is +prepared +on a different server or at a much later time, when keys in the keyring are +purged, or, in the case of a malfunction, when the keyring vault server is +not +available at all. + +The `--transition-key=` option should be used to make it +possible +for *xtrabackup* to process the backup without access to the keyring vault +server. In this case, *xtrabackup* derives the AES encryption key from the +specified passphrase and will use it to encrypt tablespace keys of +tablespaces +that are being backed up. + +### Create a backup with a passphrase + +The following example illustrates how the backup can be created in this +case: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --backup --user=root -p --target-dir=/data/backup \ +--transition-key=MySecetKey +``` + +If `--transition-key` is specified without a value, *xtrabackup* will ask +for +it. + +**NOTE**: *xtrabackup* scrapes `--transition-key` so that its value is not +visible in +the `ps` command output. + +### Prepare a backup with a passphrase + +The same passphrase should be specified for the prepare command: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backup \ +--transition-key=MySecretKey +``` + +There are no `--keyring-vault...`,\`\`–keyring-file…\`\`, +or `--component-keyring-file-config` options here, +because *xtrabackup* does not talk to the keyring in this case. + +### Restore a backup with a generated key + +When restoring a backup you will need to generate a new master key. Here is +the +example for `keyring_file` plugin or component: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --copy-back --target-dir=/data/backup --datadir=/data/mysql \ +--transition-key=MySecetKey --generate-new-master-key \ +--keyring-file-data=/var/lib/mysql-keyring/keyring +``` + +In case of `keyring_vault`, it will look like this: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --copy-back --target-dir=/data/backup --datadir=/data/mysql \ +--transition-key=MySecetKey --generate-new-master-key \ +--keyring-vault-config=/etc/vault.cnf +``` + +*xtrabackup* will generate a new master key, store it in the target keyring +vault server and re-encrypt the tablespace keys using this key. + +### Make a backup with a stored transition key + +Finally, there is an option to store a transition key in the keyring.

It +is +safe to cancel at any time, because *xtrabackup* does not modify the +database. + +The next step is getting your backup ready to be restored. + +## Preparing a backup + +After making a backup with the `--backup` option, you need to +prepare it in order to restore it. Data files are not point-in-time +consistent +until they are *prepared*, because they were copied at different times as +the +program ran, and they might have been changed while this was happening. + +If you try to start InnoDB with these data files, it will detect corruption +and +stop working to avoid running on damaged data. The `--prepare` step +makes the files perfectly consistent at a single instant in time, so you +can run +*InnoDB* on them. + +You can run the *prepare* operation on any machine; it does not need to be +on the +originating server or the server to which you intend to restore. You can +copy +the backup to a utility server and prepare it there. + +Note that *Percona XtraBackup* 8.0 can only prepare backups of *MySQL* +8.0, *Percona Server for MySQL* 8.0, and *Percona XtraDB Cluster* 8.0 +databases. Releases prior to 8.0 are not supported. + +During the *prepare* operation, *xtrabackup* boots up a kind of modified +embedded InnoDB (the libraries *xtrabackup* was linked against). The +modifications are necessary to disable InnoDB standard safety checks, such +as +complaining about the log file not being the right size. This warning is +not +appropriate for working with backups. These modifications are only for the +xtrabackup binary; you do not need a modified *InnoDB* to use *xtrabackup* +for +your backups. + +The *prepare* step uses this “embedded InnoDB” to perform crash recovery on +the +copied data files, using the copied log file. The `prepare` step is very +simple to use: you simply run *xtrabackup* with the `--prepare` option +and tell it which directory to prepare, for example, to prepare the +previously +taken backup run: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --prepare --target-dir=/data/backups/ +``` + +When this finishes, you should see an `InnoDB shutdown` with a message such +as the following, where again the value of LSN will depend on your +system: + +``` +InnoDB: Shutdown completed; log sequence number 137345046 +160906 11:21:01 completed OK! +``` + +All following prepares will not change the already prepared data files, +you’ll +see that output says: + +``` +xtrabackup: This target seems to be already prepared. +xtrabackup: notice: xtrabackup_logfile was already used to '--prepare'. +``` + +It is not recommended to interrupt xtrabackup process while preparing +backup +because it may cause data files corruption and backup will become unusable. +Backup validity is not guaranteed if prepare process was interrupted. + +**NOTE**: If you intend the backup to be the basis for further incremental +backups, you +should use the `--apply-log-only` option when preparing +the backup, or you will not be able to apply incremental backups to it. See +the documentation on preparing incremental backups for more details. + +## Restoring a Backup + +**WARNING**: Backup needs to be prepared before it can be +restored. + +For convenience, *xtrabackup* binary has the `--copy-back` +option to copy the backup to the datadir of the server: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --copy-back --target-dir=/data/backups/ +``` + +If you don’t want to save your backup, you can use the +`--move-back` option which will move the backed up data to +the datadir. + +If you don’t want to use any of the above options, you can additionally use +**rsync** or **cp** to restore the files. + +**NOTE**: The datadir must be empty before restoring the backup. Also, it’s +important to note that MySQL server needs to be shut down before restore is +performed.

The LSN is the system version number for the +entire database. Each page’s LSN shows how recently it was changed. + +An incremental backup copies each page whose LSN is newer than the +previous incremental or full backup’s LSN. There are two algorithms in +use to find the set of such pages to be copied. The first one, available +with +all the server types and versions, is to check the page LSN directly by +reading all the data pages. The second one, available with *Percona Server +for MySQL*, is +to enable +the [changed page tracking](http://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/5.6/management/changed_page_tracking.html) +feature on the server, which will note the pages as they are being changed. +This information will be then written out in a compact separate so-called +bitmap file.

In full backups, two types of operations are performed +to +make the database consistent: committed transactions are replayed from the +log +file against the data files, and uncommitted transactions are rolled back. +You +must skip the rollback of uncommitted transactions when preparing an +incremental backup, because transactions that were uncommitted at the time +of +your backup may be in progress, and it’s likely that they will be committed +in +the next incremental backup. You should use the +`--apply-log-only` option to prevent the rollback phase. + +**WARNING**: **If you do not use the** `--apply-log-only` **option to +prevent the rollback phase, then your incremental backups will be useless** +. +After transactions have been rolled back, further incremental backups +cannot +be applied. + +Beginning with the full backup you created, you can prepare it, and then +apply +the incremental differences to it. Recall that you have the following +backups: + +``` +/data/backups/base +/data/backups/inc1 +/data/backups/inc2 +``` + +To prepare the base backup, you need to run `--prepare` as +usual, but prevent the rollback phase: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --prepare --apply-log-only --target-dir=/data/backups/base +``` + +The output should end with text similar to the following: + +``` +InnoDB: Shutdown completed; log sequence number 1626007 +161011 12:41:04 completed OK! +``` + +The log sequence number should match the `to_lsn` of the base backup, which +you saw previously. + +**NOTE**: This backup is actually safe to restore as-is +now, even though the rollback phase has been skipped. If you restore it and +start *MySQL*, *InnoDB* will detect that the rollback phase was not +performed, and it will do that in the background, as it usually does for a +crash recovery upon start. It will notify you that the database was not +shut +down normally. + +To apply the first incremental backup to the full backup, run the following +command: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --prepare --apply-log-only --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ +--incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc1 +``` + +This applies the delta files to the files in `/data/backups/base`, which +rolls them forward in time to the time of the incremental backup. It then +applies the redo log as usual to the result. The final data is in +`/data/backups/base`, not in the incremental directory. You should see +an output similar to: + +``` +incremental backup from 1626007 is enabled. +xtrabackup: cd to /data/backups/base +xtrabackup: This target seems to be already prepared with --apply-log-only. +xtrabackup: xtrabackup_logfile detected: size=2097152, start_lsn=(4124244) +... +xtrabackup: page size for /tmp/backups/inc1/ibdata1.delta is 16384 bytes +Applying /tmp/backups/inc1/ibdata1.delta to ./ibdata1... +... +161011 12:45:56 completed OK! +``` + +Again, the LSN should match what you saw from your earlier inspection of +the +first incremental backup.

Do not run `--prepare` with the same +incremental backup directory (the value of –incremental-dir) more than +once. + +Preparing the second incremental backup is a similar process: apply the +deltas +to the (modified) base backup, and you will roll its data forward in time +to +the point of the second incremental backup: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --prepare --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ +--incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc2 +``` + +**NOTE**: `--apply-log-only` should be used when merging the +incremental backups +except +the last one. That’s why the previous line does not contain the +`--apply-log-only` option. Even if the `--apply-log-only` was +used on the last step, backup would still be consistent but in that case +server +would perform the rollback phase. + +Once prepared incremental backups are the same as the full backups, and +they +can be restored in the same +way. diff --git a/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/css/details.css b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/css/details.css new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..e9e925576879 --- /dev/null +++ b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/css/details.css @@ -0,0 +1,36 @@ +details { + display: block; +} + +details[open] > summary::before { + content: "\25BC"; +} + +details summary { + display: block; + cursor: pointer; +} + +details summary:focus { + outline: none; +} + +details summary::before { + content: "\25B6"; + padding-right: 0.5em; +} + +details summary::-webkit-details-marker { + display: none; +} + +/* Attach the "no-details" class to details tags + in browsers that do not support them to get + open/show functionality. */ +details.no-details:not([open]) > * { + display: none; +} + +details.no-details:not([open]) summary { + display: block; +} diff --git a/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/css/percona.css b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/css/percona.css new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..ce46731d2935 --- /dev/null +++ b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/css/percona.css @@ -0,0 +1,16 @@ +[data-md-color-scheme="percona-light"] { + --md-primary-fg-color: #e97e03; + --md-primary-fg-color--light: #ECB7B7; + --md-primary-fg-color--dark: #90030C; +} +[data-md-color-scheme="slate"] { + --md-primary-fg-color: #e97e03; + /* + --md-primary-fg-color--light: #ECB7B7; + --md-primary-fg-color--dark: #90030C; + */ + --md-hue: 210; /* [0, 360] */ + } +ul li p { + margin: 0; +} diff --git a/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/css/toctree.css b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/css/toctree.css new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..0de776193231 --- /dev/null +++ b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/css/toctree.css @@ -0,0 +1,48 @@ +.sphinxsidebarwrapper { + padding-right: 0 !important; +} +/* Turns off bullets within toctree */ +.sphinxsidebarwrapper ul { + list-style: none; +} +.sphinxsidebarwrapper>ul { + padding-left: 0; +} +.sphinxsidebarwrapper>ul>li { + padding: 0 0 10px 0; + margin: 0; +} +.custom-button { + cursor: pointer; + display: inline-flex; + justify-content: center; + align-items: center; + width: 10px; + margin-right: 5px; + margin-bottom: 0; + font-size: 18px; + font-weight: 400; + border: none; + background-color: transparent; + outline: none; +} + +.custom-button~ul { + display: none; +} + +.custom-button--main-active { + background-color: #e3e3e3 +} + +.custom-button.custom-button--active~ul { + display: block; +} + +.custom-button:before { + content: '+'; +} + +.custom-button.custom-button--active:before { + content: '-'; +} diff --git a/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/css/version-select.css b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/css/version-select.css new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..49079bf4686e --- /dev/null +++ b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/css/version-select.css @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +@media only screen and (max-width:76.1875em) { + #version-selector { + padding: .6rem .8rem; + } +} diff --git a/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/em/instant.md b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/em/instant.md new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..d8ebf98c50cf --- /dev/null +++ b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/em/instant.md @@ -0,0 +1,65 @@ +# Error Message: Found tables with row versions due to INSTANT ADD/DROP columns + +*MySQL* 8.0.29 extended the support for `ALTER TABLE … ALGORITHM=INSTANT` to allow users to add a column in any table position or drop any column.

This contains a record of every change to InnoDB data. When *InnoDB* +starts, it inspects the data files and the transaction log, and performs two +steps. It applies committed transaction log entries to the data files, and it +performs an undo operation on any transactions that modified data but did not +commit. + +*Percona XtraBackup* works by remembering the log sequence number (LSN) +when it starts, and then copying away the data files. It takes some time to do +this, so if the files are changing, then they reflect the state of the database +at different points in time. At the same time, *Percona XtraBackup* runs a +background process that watches the transaction log files, and copies changes +from it. *Percona XtraBackup* needs to do this continually because the +transaction logs are written in a round-robin fashion, and can be reused after a +while. *Percona XtraBackup* needs the transaction log records for every change +to the data files since it began execution. + +*Percona XtraBackup* uses [Backup locks](https://docs.percona.com/percona-server/8.0/management/backup_locks.html) +where available as a lightweight alternative to `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ +LOCK`. This feature is available in *Percona Server for MySQL* 5.6+. *MySQL* 8.0 allows +acquiring an instance level backup lock via the `LOCK INSTANCE FOR BACKUP` +statement. + +Locking is only done for *MyISAM* and other non-InnoDB tables +**after** *Percona XtraBackup* finishes backing up all InnoDB/XtraDB data and +logs. *Percona XtraBackup* uses this automatically to copy non-InnoDB data to +avoid blocking DML queries that modify *InnoDB* tables. + +**_Important_** - The `BACKUP_ADMIN` privilege is required to query the +`performance_schema_log_status` for either `LOCK +INSTANCE FOR +BACKUP` or `LOCK TABLES FOR BACKUP`. + +*xtrabackup* tries to avoid backup locks and `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK` +when the instance contains only InnoDB tables. In this case, *xtrabackup* +obtains binary log coordinates from `performance_schema.log_status`. `FLUSH +TABLES WITH READ LOCK` is still required in MySQL 8.0 when xtrabackup is +started with the `--slave-info`. The `log_status` table in Percona +Server for MySQL 8.0 is extended to include the relay log coordinates, so no locks are +needed even with the `--slave-info` option. + +**_See also_** [*MySQL* Documentation: LOCK INSTANCE FOR BACKUP](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/lock-instance-for-backup.html) + +When backup locks are supported by the server, *xtrabackup* first copies +*InnoDB* data, runs the `LOCK TABLES FOR BACKUP` and then copies the *MyISAM* +tables. Once this is done, the backup of the files will +begin. It will backup .frm, .MRG, .MYD, .MYI, .CSM, +.CSV, `.sdi` and `.par` files. + +After that *xtrabackup* will use `LOCK BINLOG FOR BACKUP` to block all +operations that might change either binary log position or +`Exec_Master_Log_Pos` or `Exec_Gtid_Set` (i.e. source binary log coordinates +corresponding to the current SQL thread state on a replication replica) as +reported by `SHOW MASTER/SLAVE STATUS`. *xtrabackup* will then finish copying +the REDO log files and fetch the binary log coordinates. After this is completed +*xtrabackup* will unlock the binary log and tables. + +Finally, the binary log position will be printed to `STDERR` and *xtrabackup* +will exit returning 0 if all went OK. + +Note that the `STDERR` of *xtrabackup* is not written in any file. You will +have to redirect it to a file, e.g., `xtrabackup OPTIONS 2> backupout.log`. + +It will also create the following files in the +directory of the backup. + +During the `prepare` phase, *Percona XtraBackup* performs crash recovery against +the copied data files, using the copied transaction log file. After this is +done, the database is ready to restore and use. + +The backed-up *MyISAM* and *InnoDB* tables will be eventually consistent with +each other, because after the prepare (recovery) process, *InnoDB*’s data is +rolled forward to the point at which the backup completed, not rolled back to +the point at which it started. This point in time matches where the `FLUSH +TABLES WITH READ LOCK` was taken, so the *MyISAM* data and the prepared +*InnoDB* data are in sync. + +The *xtrabackup* offers many features not mentioned in the preceding +explanation. The functionality of each tool is explained in more +detail further in this manual. In brief, though, the tools enable you +to do operations such as streaming and incremental backups with +various combinations of copying the data files, copying the log files, +and applying the logs to the data. + +## Restoring a backup + +To restore a backup with *xtrabackup* you can use the `--copy-back` or +`--move-back` options. + +*xtrabackup* will read from the `my.cnf` the variables datadir, +innodb_data_home_dir, innodb_data_file_path, +innodb_log_group_home_dir and check that the directories exist. + +It will copy the *MyISAM* tables, indexes, etc. (.MRG, .MYD, +.MYI, .CSM, .CSV, `.sdi`, +and `par` files) first, *InnoDB* tables and indexes next and the log files at +last. It will preserve file’s attributes when copying them, you may have to +change the files’ ownership to `mysql` before starting the database server, as +they will be owned by the user who created the backup. + +Alternatively, the `--move-back` option may be used to +restore a backup. This option is similar to `--copy-back` +with the only difference that instead of copying files it moves them to their +target locations. As this option removes backup files, it must be used with +caution. It is useful in cases when there is not enough free disk space to hold +both data files and their backup copies. diff --git a/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/howtos/backup_verification.md b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/howtos/backup_verification.md new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..9ca468a4e0a9 --- /dev/null +++ b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/docs/howtos/backup_verification.md @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +# Verifying Backups with replication and pt-checksum + +One way to verify if the backup is consistent is by setting up the +replication and +running [pt-table-checksum](http://www.percona.com/doc/percona-toolkit/pt-table-checksum.html) +.

Having a backup done +systematically and available for a rapid recovery in case of failure is +admittedly essential to a system. However, it is not common practice +because of +its costs, infrastructure needed or even the boredom associated to the +task. Percona XtraBackup is designed to solve this problem. + +You can have almost real-time backups in 6 simple steps by setting up a +replication environment with Percona XtraBackup. + +## All the things you will need + +Setting up a replica for replication with *Percona XtraBackup* is a +straightforward procedure. In order to keep it simple, here is a list of +the +things you need to follow the steps without hassles: + +`Source` + + A system with a *MySQL*-based server installed, configured and running. This + system will be called `Source`, as it is where your data is stored and + the one to be replicated. We will assume the following about this system: + + + * the *MySQL* server is able to communicate with others by the standard TCP/IP port; + + + * the *SSH* server is installed and configured; + + + * you have a user account in the system with the appropriate permissions; + + + * you have a MySQL’s user account with appropriate privileges. + + + * server has binlogs enabled and server-id set up to 1. + +`Replica` + + Another system, with a *MySQL*-based server installed on it. We + will refer to this machine as `Replica` and we will assume the same things + we did about `Source`, except that the server-id on `Replica` is 2. + +`Percona XtraBackup` + + The backup tool we will use. It should be installed in both computers for convenience. + +**NOTE**: It is not recommended to mix MySQL variants (Percona Server, +MySQL) in your +replication setup. This may produce incorrect `xtrabackup_slave_info` +file when adding a new replica. + +## Version updates + +The 8.0.23 version deprecates the `CHANGE_MASTER_TO` command. In that +version and later, use +the [CHANGE_REPLICATION_SOURCE_TO and the appropriate options](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/change-replication-source-to.html) instead. + +The 8.0.22 version deprecates the`START SLAVE` command. In that version or +later, use `START REPLICA` instead. + + +## STEP 1: Make a backup on the `Source` and prepare it + +At the `Source`, issue the following to a shell: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --backup --user=yourDBuser --password=MaGiCdB1 --target-dir=/path/to/backupdir +``` + +After this is finished you should get: + +``` +xtrabackup: completed OK! +``` + +This will make a copy of your *MySQL* data dir +to the `/path/to/backupdir` directory. +You have told *Percona XtraBackup* to connect to the database server +using your database user and password, +and do a hot backup of all your data in it +(all *MyISAM*, *InnoDB* tables and indexes in them). + +In order for snapshot to be consistent you need to prepare the data on the +source: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --user=yourDBuser --password=MaGiCdB1 \ + --prepare --target-dir=/path/to/backupdir +``` + +You need to select path where your snapshot has been taken. +If everything is ok you should get the same OK message. +Now the transaction logs are applied to the data files, +and new ones are created: +your data files are ready to be used by the MySQL server. + +*Percona XtraBackup* knows where your data is by reading your my.cnf file. +If you have your configuration file in a non-standard place, +you should use the flag `--defaults-file` `=/location/of/my.cnf`. + +If you want to skip writing the username and password +every time you want to access *MySQL*, +you can set it up in `.mylogin.cnf` as follows: + +``` +mysql_config_editor set --login-path=client --host=localhost --user=root --password +``` + +For more information, see MySQL Configuration +Utility . + +This statement provides root access to MySQL. + +## STEP 2: Copy backed up data to the Replica + +On the Source, use rsync or scp to copy the data from the Source to the +Replica. If you are syncing the data directly to replica’s data directory, +we recommend that you stop the `mysqld` there. + +``` +$ rsync -avpP -e ssh /path/to/backupdir Replica:/path/to/mysql/ +``` + +After data has been copied, you can back up the original or previously +installed *MySQL* datadir (**NOTE**: Make sure mysqld is shut down before +you move the contents of its datadir, or move the snapshot into its +datadir.). Run the following commands on the Replica: + +``` +$ mv /path/to/mysql/datadir /path/to/mysql/datadir_bak +``` + +and move the snapshot from the `Source` in its place: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --move-back --target-dir=/path/to/mysql/backupdir +``` + +After you copy data over, make sure the Replica *MySQL* has the proper +permissions to access them. + +``` +$ chown mysql:mysql /path/to/mysql/datadir +``` + +If the ibdata and iblog files are located in directories outside the +datadir, you must put these files in their proper place after the logs have +been applied. + +## STEP 3: Configure the Source’s MySQL server + +On the source, run the following command to add the appropriate grant. This +grant allows the replica to be able to connect to source: + +``` +> GRANT REPLICATION SLAVE ON *.* TO 'repl'@'$replicaip' +IDENTIFIED BY '$replicapass'; +``` + +Also make sure that firewall rules are correct and that the `Replica` can +connect to the `Source`. Run the following command on the Replica to test +that you can run the mysql client on `Replica`, connect to the `Source`, +and authenticate. + +``` +$ mysql --host=Source --user=repl --password=$replicapass +``` + +Verify the privileges. + +``` +mysql> SHOW GRANTS; +``` + +## STEP 4: Configure the Replica’s MySQL server + +Copy the `my.cnf` file from the `Source` to the `Replica`: + +``` +$ scp user@Source:/etc/mysql/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf +``` + +and change the following options in /etc/mysql/my.cnf: + +``` +server-id=2 +``` + +and start/restart mysqld on the `Replica`. + +In case you’re using init script on Debian-based system to start mysqld, be +sure that the password for `debian-sys-maint` user has been updated, and +it’s the same as that user’s password on the `Source`. Password can be seen +and updated in `/etc/mysql/debian.cnf`. + +## STEP 5: Start the replication + +On the `Replica`, review the content of the file `xtrabackup_binlog_info`, +it will be something like: + +``` + $ cat /var/lib/mysql/xtrabackup_binlog_info +Source-bin.000001 481 +``` + +[The term `master` is deprecated](#version-updates). Do the following on a +MySQL console and use the username and +password you’ve set up in STEP 3 : + +* Version 8.0.23 or later, use the `CHANGE_REPLICATION_SOURCE_TO` statement + +* Before 8.0.23, use the `CHANGE MASTER` statement + + +``` +CHANGE REPLICATION SOURCE TO + SOURCE_HOST='$sourceip', + SOURCE_USER='repl', + SOURCE_PASSWORD='$replicapass', + SOURCE_LOG_FILE='Source-bin.000001', + SOURCE_LOG_POS=481; +``` + +Start the replica: + +``` +START REPLICA; +``` + +The [term `slave` is deprecated](#version-updates). Do the following: + +* Version 8.0.22 or later, use `START REPLICA` +* Before version 8.0.22, use `START SLAVE` + +## STEP 6: Check + +On the `Replica`, check that everything went OK with: + +``` +SHOW REPLICA STATUS\G +``` + +The result shows the status: + +``` +Slave_IO_Running: Yes +Slave_SQL_Running: Yes +Seconds_Behind_Master: 13 +``` + +Both `IO` and `SQL` threads need to be running. The `Seconds_Behind_Master` +means the `SQL` currently being executed has a `current_timestamp` of 13 +seconds ago. It is an estimation of the lag between the `Source` and +the `Replica`. Note that at the beginning, a high value could be shown +because the `Replica` has to “catch up” with the `Source`. + +## Adding more replicas to the Source + +You can use this procedure with slight variation to add new replicas to a +source. We will use *Percona XtraBackup* to clone an already configured +replica. We will continue using the previous scenario for convenience, but +we will add a `NewReplica` to the plot. + +At the `Replica`, do a full backup: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --user=yourDBuser --password=MaGiCiGaM \ + --backup --slave-info --target-dir=/path/to/backupdir +``` + +By using the `--slave-info` *Percona XtraBackup* creates additional file +called `xtrabackup_slave_info`. + +Apply the logs: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --prepare --use-memory=2G --target-dir=/path/to/backupdir/ +``` + +Copy the directory from the `Replica` to the `NewReplica` (**NOTE**: Make +sure mysqld is shut down on the `NewReplica` before you copy the contents +the snapshot into its datadir.): + +``` +rsync -avprP -e ssh /path/to/backupdir NewReplica:/path/to/mysql/datadir +``` + +For example, to set up a new user, `user2`, you add another grant on +the Source: + +``` +> GRANT REPLICATION SLAVE ON *.* TO 'user2'@'$newreplicaip' + IDENTIFIED BY '$replicapass'; +``` + +On the `NewReplica`, copy the configuration file from the `Replica`: + +``` +$ scp user@Replica:/etc/mysql/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf +``` + +Make sure you change the server-id variable in `/etc/mysql/my.cnf` to 3 and +disable the replication on start: + +``` +skip-slave-start +server-id=3 +``` + +After setting `server_id`, start **mysqld**. + +Fetch the master_log_file and master_log_pos from the +file `xtrabackup_slave_info`, execute the statement for setting up the +source and the log file for the NewReplica: + +``` +> CHANGE MASTER TO + MASTER_HOST='$Sourceip', + MASTER_USER='repl', + MASTER_PASSWORD='$replicapass', + MASTER_LOG_FILE='Source-bin.000001', + MASTER_LOG_POS=481; +``` + +[The term `master` is deprecated](#version-updates).

The improved log structure is displayed in the backup, prepare, move-back/copy-back error logs. + +Each log statement has the following attributes: + + +* **Timestamp** - a timestamp for when the event occurred in a UTC format. + + +* **Severity** - the severity level of a statement indicates the importance of an event. + + +* **ID** - this identifier is currently not used but may be used in future versions. + + +* **Context** - the name of the module that issued the log statement, such as **XtraBackup**, **InnoDB**, or **Server**. + + +* **Message** - a description of the event generated by the module. + +## New Features + + +* [PXB-2670](https://jira.percona.com/browse/PXB-2670): Improves the error logging framework in Percona XtraBackup. + +## Bugs Fixed + + +* [PXB-1676](https://jira.percona.com/browse/PXB-1676): The error message after creating a backup was incorrect. + + +* [PXB-2716](https://jira.percona.com/browse/PXB-2716): Fix for a compilation error on systems without fallocate.

Suppose a chunk fails to upload or download. In that case, this feature adds an exponential backoff, or sleep, time and then retries the upload or download, which increases the chances of completing a backup or a restore operation. + +## Supported Cloud Storage Types + +The following cloud storage types are supported: + + +* OpenStack Object Storage (Swift) - see [Using the xbcloud Binary with Swift](https://docs.percona.com/percona-xtrabackup/8.0/xbcloud/xbcloud_swift.html#xbcloud-swift) + + +* Amazon Simple Storage (S3) - see [Using xbcloud Binary with Amazon S3](https://docs.percona.com/percona-xtrabackup/8.0/xbcloud/xbcloud_s3.html#xbcloud-s3) + + +* Azure Cloud Storage - see [Using the xbcloud binary with Microsoft Azure Cloud Storage](https://docs.percona.com/percona-xtrabackup/8.0/xbcloud/xbcloud_azure.html#xbcloud-azure) + + +* Google Cloud Storage (gcs) - see [Using the xbcloud with Google Cloud Storage](https://docs.percona.com/percona-xtrabackup/8.0/xbcloud/xbcloud_gcs.html#xbcloud-gcs) + + +* MinIO - see [Using the xbcloud Binary with MinIO](https://docs.percona.com/percona-xtrabackup/8.0/xbcloud/xbcloud_minio.html#xbcloud-minio) + +In addition to OpenStack Object Storage (Swift), which has been the only option for storing backups in a cloud storage until Percona XtraBackup 2.4.14, *xbcloud* supports Amazon S3, MinIO, and Google Cloud Storage.

    backup-my.cnf This file contains information to start the mini instance +of InnoDB during the --prepare. +This +**not** a +backup of the original my.cnf. The +InnoDB configuration is +read from +the file backup-my.cnf created by +xtrabackup when the backup was made. The --prepare uses InnoDB +configuration from backup-my.cnf +by default, or from --defaults-file, if specified. The InnoDB's configuration in this context means server variables that affect dataformat, i.e. innodb_page_size option, innodb_log_block_size, etc. Location-related variables, like innodb_log_group_home_dir or innodb_data_file_path are always ignored by --prepare, so preparing a backup always works with data files from the back directory, rather than any external ones.
    xtrabackup_checkpoints

    The type of the backup (for example, full or incremental), +its state (for example, prepared) and the LSN range contained in it. +This information is used for incremental backups. Example of the +xtrabackup_checkpoints after +taking a full backup:

The reason for opening the files in +read-write mode is that *xtrabackup* uses the embedded *InnoDB* libraries to +open and read the files, and *InnoDB* opens them in read-write mode because it +normally assumes it is going to write to them. + +## Tuning the OS Buffers + +Because *xtrabackup* reads large amounts of data from the filesystem, it uses +`posix_fadvise()` where possible, to instruct the operating system not to try +to cache the blocks it reads from disk. Without this hint, the operating system +would prefer to cache the blocks, assuming that `xtrabackup` is likely to need +them again, which is not the case. Caching such large files can place pressure +on the operating system’s virtual memory and cause other processes, such as the +database server, to be swapped out. The `xtrabackup` tool avoids this with the +following hint on both the source and destination files: + +``` +posix_fadvise(file, 0, 0, POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) +``` + +In addition, xtrabackup asks the operating system to perform more aggressive +read-ahead optimizations on the source files: + +``` +posix_fadvise(file, 0, 0, POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL) +``` + +## Copying Data Files + +When copying the data files to the target directory, *xtrabackup* reads and +writes 1 MB of data at a time.

The LSN is the system +version number for the entire database. Each page’s LSN shows how +recently it was changed. An incremental backup copies each page whose +LSN is newer than the previous incremental or full backup’s +LSN. There are two algorithms in use to find the set of such pages to be +copied. The first one, available with all the server types and versions, is to +check the page LSN directly by reading all the data pages. The second +one, available with *Percona Server for MySQL*, is to enable the [changed page tracking](http://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/5.5/management/changed_page_tracking.html) +feature on the server, which will note the pages as they are being changed. This +information will be then written out in a compact separate so-called bitmap +file. The *xtrabackup* binary will use that file to read only the data pages it +needs for the incremental backup, potentially saving many read requests. The +latter algorithm is enabled by default if the *xtrabackup* binary finds the +bitmap file. It is possible to specify `--incremental-force-scan` to +read all the pages even if the bitmap data is available. + +Incremental backups do not actually compare the data files to the previous +backup’s data files. In fact, you can use `--incremental-lsn` to perform +an incremental backup without even having the previous backup, if you know its +LSN. Incremental backups simply read the pages and compare their +LSN to the last backup’s LSN. You still need a full backup to +recover the incremental changes, however; without a full backup to act as a +base, the incremental backups are useless. + +## Creating an Incremental Backup + +To make an incremental backup, begin with a full backup as usual. The +*xtrabackup* binary writes a file called `xtrabackup_checkpoints` into the +backup’s target directory. This file contains a line showing the `to_lsn`, +which is the database’s LSN at the end of the backup. Create the +full backup with a command such as the following: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/base --datadir=/var/lib/mysql/ +``` + +If you look at the `xtrabackup_checkpoints` file, you should see contents +similar to the following: + +``` +backup_type = full-backuped +from_lsn = 0 +to_lsn = 1291135 +``` + +Now that you have a full backup, you can make an incremental backup based on +it. Use a command such as the following: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/inc1 \ +--incremental-basedir=/data/backups/base --datadir=/var/lib/mysql/ +``` + +The `/data/backups/inc1/` directory should now contain delta files, such +as `ibdata1.delta` and `test/table1.ibd.delta`. These represent the +changes since the `LSN 1291135`. If you examine the +`xtrabackup_checkpoints` file in this directory, you should see something +similar to the following: + +``` +backup_type = incremental +from_lsn = 1291135 +to_lsn = 1291340 +``` + +The meaning should be self-evident. It’s now possible to use this directory as +the base for yet another incremental backup: + +``` +$ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/inc2 \ +--incremental-basedir=/data/backups/inc1 --datadir=/var/lib/mysql/ +``` + +## Preparing the Incremental Backups + +The `--prepare` step for incremental backups is not the same as for +normal backups. In normal backups, two types of operations are performed to make +the database consistent: committed transactions are replayed from the log file +against the data files, and uncommitted transactions are rolled back. You must +skip the rollback of uncommitted transactions when preparing a backup, because +transactions that were uncommitted at the time of your backup may be in +progress, and it is likely that they will be committed in the next incremental +backup. You should use the `--apply-log-only` option to prevent the +rollback phase. + +**NOTE**: If you do not use the `--apply-log-only` option to prevent the +rollback phase, then your incremental backups will be useless. After +transactions have been rolled back, further incremental backups cannot be +applied. + +Beginning with the full backup you created, you can prepare it, and then apply +the incremental differences to it. Recall that you have the following backups: + +``` +/data/backups/base +/data/backups/inc1 +/data/backups/inc2 +``` + +To prepare the base backup, you need to run `--prepare` as usual, but +prevent the rollback phase: + +``` +xtrabackup --prepare --apply-log-only --target-dir=/data/backups/base +``` + +The output should end with some text such as the following: + +``` +101107 20:49:43 InnoDB: Shutdown completed; log sequence number 1291135 +``` + +The log sequence number should match the `to_lsn` of the base backup, which +you saw previously. + +This backup is actually safe to restore as-is now, +even though the rollback phase has been skipped. If you restore it and start +*MySQL*, *InnoDB* will detect that the rollback phase was not performed, and it +will do that in the background, as it usually does for a crash recovery upon +start. It will notify you that the database was not shut down normally. + +To apply the first incremental backup to the full backup, you should use the +following command: + +``` +xtrabackup --prepare --apply-log-only --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ +--incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc1 +``` + +This applies the delta files to the files in `/data/backups/base`, which +rolls them forward in time to the time of the incremental backup. It then +applies the redo log as usual to the result. The final data is in +`/data/backups/base`, not in the incremental directory. You should see +some output such as the following: + +``` +incremental backup from 1291135 is enabled. +xtrabackup: cd to /data/backups/base/ +xtrabackup: This target seems to be already prepared. +xtrabackup: xtrabackup_logfile detected: size=2097152, start_lsn=(1291340) +Applying /data/backups/inc1/ibdata1.delta ... +Applying /data/backups/inc1/test/table1.ibd.delta ... +.... snip +101107 20:56:30 InnoDB: Shutdown completed; log sequence number 1291340 +``` + +Again, the LSN should match what you saw from your earlier inspection of the +first incremental backup. If you restore the files from +`/data/backups/base`, you should see the state of the database as of the +first incremental backup. + +Preparing the second incremental backup is a similar process: apply the deltas +to the (modified) base backup, and you will roll its data forward in time to the +point of the second incremental backup: + +``` +xtrabackup --prepare --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ +--incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc2 +``` + +**NOTE**: `--apply-log-only` should be used when merging all incrementals +except the last one. That’s why the previous line doesn’t contain the +`--apply-log-only` option. Even if the `--apply-log-only` was +used on the last step, backup would still be consistent but in that case +server would perform the rollback phase. + +If you wish to avoid the notice that *InnoDB* was not shut down normally, when +you applied the desired deltas to the base backup, you can run +`--prepare` again without disabling the rollback phase. + +## Restoring Incremental Backups + +After preparing the incremental backups, the base directory contains the same +data as the full backup.

It is needed for +`mysqld_multi` deployments. + + +### --defaults-group-suffix(=#) +Also reads groups with concat(group, suffix). + + +### --dump-innodb-buffer-pool() +This option controls whether or not a new dump of buffer pool +content should be done. + +With `--dump-innodb-buffer-pool`, *xtrabackup* +makes a request to the server to start the buffer pool dump (it +takes some time to complete and is done in background) at the +beginning of a backup provided the status variable +`innodb_buffer_pool_dump_status` reports that the dump has been +completed. + +``` +$ xtrabackup --backup --dump-innodb-buffer-pool --target-dir=/home/user/backup +``` + +By default, this option is set to OFF. + +If `innodb_buffer_pool_dump_status` reports that there is running +dump of buffer pool, *xtrabackup* waits for the dump to complete +using the value of `--dump-innodb-buffer-pool-timeout` + +The file `ib_buffer_pool` stores tablespace ID and page ID +data used to warm up the buffer pool sooner. + + +### --dump-innodb-buffer-pool-timeout() +This option contains the number of seconds that *xtrabackup* should +monitor the value of `innodb_buffer_pool_dump_status` to +determine if buffer pool dump has completed. + +This option is used in combination with +`--dump-innodb-buffer-pool`. By default, it is set to 10 +seconds. + + +### --dump-innodb-buffer-pool-pct() +This option contains the percentage of the most recently used buffer pool +pages to dump. + +This option is effective if `--dump-innodb-buffer-pool` option is set +to ON. If this option contains a value, *xtrabackup* sets the *MySQL* +system variable `innodb_buffer_pool_dump_pct`. As soon as the buffer pool +dump completes or it is stopped (see +`--dump-innodb-buffer-pool-timeout`), the value of the *MySQL* system +variable is restored. + + +### --encrypt(=ENCRYPTION_ALGORITHM) +This option instructs xtrabackup to encrypt backup copies of InnoDB data +files using the algorithm specified in the ENCRYPTION_ALGORITHM. Currently +supported algorithms are: `AES128`, `AES192` and `AES256` + + +### --encrypt-key(=ENCRYPTION_KEY) +A proper length encryption key to use. It is not recommended to use this +option where there is uncontrolled access to the machine as the command line +and thus the key can be viewed as part of the process info. + + +### --encrypt-key-file(=ENCRYPTION_KEY_FILE) +The name of a file where the raw key of the appropriate length can be read +from. The file must be a simple binary (or text) file that contains exactly +the key to be used. + +It is passed directly to the xtrabackup child process. See the +**xtrabackup** documentation for more details. + + +### --encrypt-threads(=#) +This option specifies the number of worker threads that will be used for +parallel encryption/decryption. +See the **xtrabackup** documentation for more details. + + +### --encrypt-chunk-size(=#) +This option specifies the size of the internal working buffer for each +encryption thread, measured in bytes. It is passed directly to the +xtrabackup child process. See the **xtrabackup** documentation for more details. + + +### --export() +Create files necessary for exporting tables. See Restoring Individual +Tables. + + +### --extra-lsndir(=DIRECTORY) +(for –backup): save an extra copy of the `xtrabackup_checkpoints` +and `xtrabackup_info` files in this directory. + + +### --force-non-empty-directories() +When specified, it makes `--copy-back` and +`--move-back` option transfer files to non-empty +directories. No existing files will be overwritten. If files that need to +be copied/moved from the backup directory already exist in the destination +directory, it will still fail with an error. + + +### --ftwrl-wait-timeout(=SECONDS) +This option specifies time in seconds that xtrabackup should wait for +queries that would block `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK` before running it. +If there are still such queries when the timeout expires, xtrabackup +terminates with an error. Default is `0`, in which case it does not wait +for queries to complete and starts `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK` +immediately. Where supported *xtrabackup* will +automatically use [Backup Locks](https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/8.0/management/backup_locks.html#backup-locks) +as a lightweight alternative to `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK` to copy +non-InnoDB data to avoid blocking DML queries that modify InnoDB tables. + + +### --ftwrl-wait-threshold(=SECONDS) +This option specifies the query run time threshold which is used by +xtrabackup to detect long-running queries with a non-zero value of +`--ftwrl-wait-timeout`. `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK` +is not started until such long-running queries exist. This option has no +effect if `--ftwrl-wait-timeout` is `0`. Default value +is `60` seconds. Where supported xtrabackup will +automatically use [Backup Locks](https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/8.0/management/backup_locks.html#backup-locks) +as a lightweight alternative to `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK` to copy +non-InnoDB data to avoid blocking DML queries that modify InnoDB tables. + + +### --ftwrl-wait-query-type(=all|update) +This option specifies which types of queries are allowed to complete before +xtrabackup will issue the global lock. Default is `all`. + + +### --galera-info() +This option creates the `xtrabackup_galera_info` file which contains +the local node state at the time of the backup. Option should be used when +performing the backup of *Percona XtraDB Cluster*. It has no effect when +backup locks are used to create the backup. + + +### --generate-new-master-key() +Generate a new master key when doing a copy-back. + + +### --generate-transition-key() +*xtrabackup* needs to access the same keyring file or vault server +during prepare and copy-back but it should not depend on whether the +server keys have been purged. + +`--generate-transition-key` creates and adds to the keyring +a transition key for *xtrabackup* to use if the master key used for +encryption is not found because it has been rotated and purged. + + +### --get-server-public-key() +Get the server public key + + +### --help() +When run with this option or without any options *xtrabackup* displays +information about how to run the program on the command line along with all +supported options and variables with default values where appropriate. + + +### --history(=NAME) +This option enables the tracking of backup history in the +`PERCONA_SCHEMA.xtrabackup_history` table. An optional history series name +may be specified that will be placed with the history record for the current +backup being taken. + + +### --host(=HOST) +This option accepts a string argument that specifies the host to use when +connecting to the database server with TCP/IP. It is passed to the mysql +child process without alteration. See **mysql --help** for details. + + +### --incremental() +This option tells *xtrabackup* to create an incremental backup. It is passed +to the *xtrabackup* child process. When this option is specified, either +`--incremental-lsn` or `--incremental-basedir` can also be +given. If neither option is given, option `--incremental-basedir` is +passed to **xtrabackup** by default, set to the first timestamped +backup directory in the backup base directory. + + +### --incremental-basedir(=DIRECTORY) +When creating an incremental backup, this is the directory containing the +full backup that is the base dataset for the incremental backups. + + +### --incremental-dir(=DIRECTORY) +When preparing an incremental backup, this is the directory where the +incremental backup is combined with the full backup to make a new full +backup. + + +### --incremental-force-scan() +When creating an incremental backup, force a full scan of the data pages in +the instance being backuped even if the complete changed page bitmap data is +available. + + +### --incremental-history-name(=name) +This option specifies the name of the backup series stored in the +`PERCONA_SCHEMA.xtrabackup_history` history record to base an incremental +backup on. *xtrabackup* will search the history table looking for the most +recent (highest `innodb_to_lsn`), successful backup in the series and take +the to_lsn value to use as the starting `lsn` for the incremental +backup. This will be mutually exclusive with +`--incremental-history-uuid`, `--incremental-basedir` and +`--incremental-lsn`. If no valid lsn can be found (no series by that +name, no successful backups by that name) *xtrabackup* will return with an +error. It is used with the `--incremental` option. + + +### --incremental-history-uuid(=name) +This option specifies the *UUID* of the specific history record stored in the +`PERCONA_SCHEMA.xtrabackup_history` to base an incremental backup on. +`--incremental-history-name`, `--incremental-basedir` and +`--incremental-lsn`. If no valid lsn can be found (no success record +with that *UUID*) *xtrabackup* will return with an error. It is used with +the –incremental option. + + +### --incremental-lsn(=LSN) +When creating an incremental backup, you can specify the log sequence number +(LSN) instead of specifying +`--incremental-basedir`. For databases created in 5.1 and +later, specify the LSN as a single 64-bit integer. **ATTENTION**: If +a wrong LSN value is specified (a user error which *Percona XtraBackup* is +unable to detect), the backup will be unusable. Be careful! + + +### --innodb([=name]) +This option is ignored for MySQL option compatibility. + + +### --innodb-miscellaneous() +There is a large group of InnoDB options that are normally read from the +`my.cnf` configuration file, so that *xtrabackup* boots up its +embedded InnoDB in the same configuration as your current server. You +normally do not need to specify these explicitly. These options have the +same behavior in InnoDB and XtraDB: + + +### --keyring-file-data(=FILENAME) +The path to the keyring file. Combine this option with +`--xtrabackup-plugin-dir`. + + +### --kill-long-queries-timeout(=SECONDS) +This option specifies the number of seconds *xtrabackup* waits between +starting `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK` and killing those queries that block +it. Default is 0 seconds, which means *xtrabackup* will not attempt to kill +any queries. In order to use this option xtrabackup user should have the +`PROCESS` and `SUPER` privileges. Where supported, *xtrabackup* +automatically uses [Backup Locks](https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/8.0/management/backup_locks.html#backup-locks) +as a lightweight alternative to `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK` to copy +non-InnoDB data to avoid blocking DML queries that modify InnoDB tables. + + +### --kill-long-query-type(=all|select) +This option specifies which types of queries should be killed to unblock the +global lock. Default is “select”. + + +### --lock-ddl() +Issue `LOCK TABLES FOR BACKUP` if it is supported by server (otherwise use +`LOCK INSTANCE FOR BACKUP`) at the beginning of the backup to block all DDL +operations. + +**NOTE**: Prior to *Percona XtraBackup* 8.0.22-15.0, using a safe-slave-backup stops the SQL replica thread +after the InnoDB tables and before the non-InnoDB tables are backed up. + +As of *Percona XtraBackup* 8.0.22-15.0, using a safe-slave-backup option stops the SQL +replica thread before copying the InnoDB files. + + +### --lock-ddl-per-table() +Lock DDL for each table before xtrabackup starts to copy +it and until the backup is completed. + +**NOTE**: As of *Percona XtraBackup* 8.0.15, the –lock-ddl-per-table option is deprecated. Use the –lock-ddl option instead. + + +### --lock-ddl-timeout() +If `LOCK TABLES FOR BACKUP` or `LOCK INSTANCE FOR BACKUP` does not return +within given timeout, abort the backup. + + +### --log() +This option is ignored for *MySQL* + + +### --log-bin() +The base name for the log sequence. + + +### --log-bin-index(=name) +File that holds the names for binary log files. + + +### --log-copy-interval(=#) +This option specifies the time interval between checks done by the log +copying thread in milliseconds (default is 1 second). + + +### --login-path() +Read the given path from the login file. + + +### --move-back() +Move all the files in a previously made backup from the backup directory to +their original locations. As this option removes backup files, it must be +used with caution. + + +### --no-backup-locks() +Explicity disables the `--backup-locks` option which is enabled by +default. + + +### --no-defaults() +The default options are only read from the login file. + + +### --no-lock() +Use this option to disable table lock with `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ +LOCK`. Use it only if ALL your tables are InnoDB and you **DO NOT CARE** +about the binary log position of the backup. This option shouldn’t be used if +there are any `DDL` statements being executed or if any updates are +happening on non-InnoDB tables (this includes the system MyISAM tables in the +*mysql* database), otherwise it could lead to an inconsistent backup. Where +supported *xtrabackup* will automatically use [Backup Locks](https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/8.0/management/backup_locks.html#backup-locks) +as a lightweight alternative to `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK` to copy +non-InnoDB data to avoid blocking DML queries that modify InnoDB tables. If +you are considering to use this because your backups are failing to acquire +the lock, this could be because of incoming replication events are preventing +the lock from succeeding. Please try using `--safe-slave-backup` to +momentarily stop the replication replica thread, this may help the backup to +succeed and you do not need to use this option. + + +### --no-server-version-check() +Implemented in *Percona XtraBackup* 8.0.21. + +The `--no-server-version-check` option disables the server version check. + +The default behavior runs a check that compares the source system version to the *Percona XtraBackup* version. If the source system version is higher than the XtraBackup version, the backup is aborted with a message. + +Adding the option overrides this check, and the backup proceeds, but there may be issues with the backup. + +See Server Version and Backup Version Comparison for more information. + + +### --no-version-check() +This option disables the version check. If you do not pass this option, the +automatic version check is enabled implicitly when *xtrabackup* runs +in the `--backup` mode. To disable the version check, you should pass +explicitly the `--no-version-check` option when invoking *xtrabackup*. + +When the automatic version check is enabled, *xtrabackup* performs a +version check against the server on the backup stage after creating a server +connection. *xtrabackup* sends the following information to the server: + + +* MySQL flavour and version + + +* Operating system name + + +* Percona Toolkit version + + +* Perl version + +Each piece of information has a unique identifier. This is a MD5 hash value +that Percona Toolkit uses to obtain statistics about how it is used. This is +a random UUID; no client information is either collected or stored. + + +### --open-files-limit(=#) +The maximum number of file descriptors to reserve with setrlimit(). + + +### --parallel(=#) +This option specifies the number of threads to use to copy multiple data +files concurrently when creating a backup. The default value is 1 (i.e., no +concurrent transfer). In *Percona XtraBackup* 2.3.10 and newer, this option +can be used with the `--copy-back` option to copy the user +data files in parallel (redo logs and system tablespaces are copied in the +main thread). + + +### --password(=PASSWORD) +This option specifies the password to use when connecting to the database. +It accepts a string argument. See **mysql --help** for details. + + +### --plugin-load() +List of plugins to load. + + +### --port(=PORT) +This option accepts a string argument that specifies the port to use when +connecting to the database server with TCP/IP. It is passed to the +**mysql** child process without alteration. See **mysql +--help** for details. + + +### --prepare() +Makes **xtrabackup** perform a recovery on a backup created with +`--backup`, so that it is ready to use. See +preparing a backup. + + +### --print-defaults() +Print the program argument list and exit. Must be given as the first option +on the command-line. + + +### --print-param() +Makes **xtrabackup** print out parameters that can be used for +copying the data files back to their original locations to restore them. + + +### --read-buffer-size() +Set the datafile read buffer size, given value is scaled up to page size. Default +is 10Mb. + + +### --rebuild-indexes() +Rebuilds indexes in a compact backup. This option only has effect when the +`--prepare` and `--rebuild-threads` options are provided. + + +### --rebuild-threads(=#) +Uses the given number of threads to rebuild indexes in a compact backup. This +option only has effect with the `--prepare` and +`--rebuild-indexes` options. + + +### --remove-original() +Implemented in *Percona XtraBackup* 2.4.6, this option when specified will +remove `.qp`, `.xbcrypt` and `.qp.xbcrypt` files after +decryption and decompression. + + +### --rocksdb-datadir() +RocksDB data directory + + +### --rocksdb-wal-dir() +RocksDB WAL directory. + + +### --rocksdb-checkpoint-max-age() +The checkpoint cannot be older than this number of seconds when the backup +completes. + + +### --rocksdb-checkpoint-max-count() +Complete the backup even if the checkpoint age requirement has not been met after +this number of checkpoints. + + +### --rollback-prepared-trx() +Force rollback prepared InnoDB transactions. + + +### --rsync() +Uses the **rsync** utility to optimize local file transfers. When this +option is specified, *xtrabackup* uses **rsync** to copy +all non-InnoDB files instead of spawning a separate **cp** for each +file, which can be much faster for servers with a large number of databases +or tables. This option cannot be used together with `--stream`. + + +### --safe-slave-backup() +When specified, xtrabackup will stop the replica SQL thread just before +running `FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK` and wait to start backup until +`Slave_open_temp_tables` in `SHOW STATUS` is zero. If there are no open +temporary tables, the backup will take place, otherwise the SQL thread will +be started and stopped until there are no open temporary tables. The backup +will fail if `Slave_open_temp_tables` does not become zero after +`--safe-slave-backup-timeout` seconds. The replication SQL +thread will be restarted when the backup finishes. This option is +implemented in order to deal with [replicating temporary tables](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/replication-features-temptables.html) +and isn’t neccessary with Row-Based-Replication. + + +### --safe-slave-backup-timeout(=SECONDS) +How many seconds `--safe-slave-backup` should wait for +`Slave_open_temp_tables` to become zero. Defaults to 300 seconds. + + +### --secure-auth() +Refuse client connecting to server if it uses old (pre-4.1.1) protocol. +(Enabled by default; use –skip-secure-auth to disable.) + + +### --server-id(=#) +The server instance being backed up. + + +### --server-public-key-path() +The file path to the server public RSA key in the PEM format. + + +### --skip-tables-compatibility-check() +See `--tables-compatibility-check`. + + +### --slave-info() +This option is useful when backing up a replication replica server. It prints +the binary log position of the source server. It also writes the binary log +coordinates to the `xtrabackup_slave_info` file as a `CHANGE MASTER` +command. A new replica for this source can be set up by starting a replica server +on this backup and issuing a `CHANGE MASTER` command with the binary log +position saved in the `xtrabackup_slave_info` file. + + +### --socket() +This option accepts a string argument that specifies the socket to use when +connecting to the local database server with a UNIX domain socket. It is +passed to the mysql child process without alteration. See **mysql +--help** for details. + + +### --ssl() +Enable secure connection. More information can be found in [–ssl](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/encrypted-connection-options.html) +MySQL server documentation. + + +### --ssl-ca() +Path of the file which contains list of trusted SSL CAs.

If the name matches, the +table is backed up. See partial backups. + + +### --tables-compatibility-check() +Enables the engine compatibility warning. The default value is +ON. To disable the engine compatibility warning use +`--skip-tables-compatibility-check`. + + +### --tables-exclude(=name) +Filtering by regexp for table names. Operates the same +way as `--tables`, but matched names are excluded from +backup. Note that this option has a higher priority than +`--tables`. + + +### --tables-file(=name) +A file containing one table name per line, in databasename.tablename format. +The backup will be limited to the specified tables. + + +### --target-dir(=DIRECTORY) +This option specifies the destination directory for the backup. If the +directory does not exist, **xtrabackup** creates it. If the directory +does exist and is empty, **xtrabackup** will succeed. +**xtrabackup** will not overwrite existing files, however; it will +fail with operating system error 17, `file exists`. + +If this option is a relative path, it is interpreted as being relative to +the current working directory from which **xtrabackup** is executed. + +In order to perform a backup, you need `READ`, `WRITE`, and `EXECUTE` +permissions at a filesystem level for the directory that you supply as the +value of `--target-dir`. + + +### --innodb-temp-tablespaces-dir(=DIRECTORY) +Directory where temp tablespace files live, this path can be absolute. + + +### --throttle(=#) +This option limits the number of chunks copied per second. The chunk size is +*10 MB*. To limit the bandwidth to *10 MB/s*, set the option to *1*: +–throttle=1. + + +### --tls-ciphersuites() +TLS v1.3 cipher to use. + + +### --tls-version() +TLS version to use, permitted values are: *TLSv1*, *TLSv1.1*, +*TLSv1.2*, *TLSv1.3*. + + +### --tmpdir(=name) +Specify the directory that will be used to store temporary files during the +backup + + +### --transition-key(=name) +This option is used to enable processing the backup without accessing the +keyring vault server. In this case, **xtrabackup** derives the AES +encryption key from the specified passphrase and uses it to encrypt +tablespace keys of tablespaces being backed up. + +If `--transition-key` does not have any +value, **xtrabackup** will ask for it. The same passphrase should be +specified for the `--prepare` command. + + +### --use-memory() +This option affects how much memory is allocated for preparing a backup with +`--prepare`, or analyzing statistics with +`--stats`. Its purpose is similar +to innodb_buffer_pool_size. It does not do the same thing as the +similarly named option in Oracle’s InnoDB Hot Backup tool. +The default value is 100MB, and if you have enough available memory, 1GB to +2GB is a good recommended value. Multiples are supported providing the unit +(e.g. 1MB, 1M, 1GB, 1G). + + +### --user(=USERNAME) +This option specifies the MySQL username used when connecting to the server, +if that’s not the current user.

The *xtrabackup* binary +writes a file called :file:`xtrabackup_checkpoints` into the backup's target +directory. This file contains a line showing the ``to_lsn``, which is the +database's :term:`LSN` at the end of the backup. First you need to create a full +backup with the following command: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ + --keyring-file-data=/var/lib/mysql-keyring/keyring + +.. warning:: + + *xtrabackup* will not copy the keyring file into the backup directory. In order to + prepare the backup, you must make a copy of the keyring file yourself. If you + try to restore the backup after the keyring has been changed you'll see errors + like ``ERROR 3185 (HY000): Can't find master key from keyring, please check + keyring plugin is loaded.`` when trying to access an encrypted table. + +If you look at the :file:`xtrabackup_checkpoints` file, you should see +contents similar to the following: + +.. code-block:: none + + backup_type = full-backuped + from_lsn = 0 + to_lsn = 7666625 + last_lsn = 7666634 + compact = 0 + recover_binlog_info = 1 + +Now that you have a full backup, you can make an incremental backup based on it. Use a command such as the following: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/inc1 \ + --incremental-basedir=/data/backups/base \ + --keyring-file-data=/var/lib/mysql-keyring/keyring + +.. warning:: + + *xtrabackup* does not copy the keyring file into the backup directory. To prepare the backup, you must copy the keyring file manually. + + If the + keyring has not been rotated you can use the same as the one you've backed-up + with the base backup. If the keyring has been rotated or you have upgraded the plugin to a component, you'll need to back up the keyring file, + otherwise, you are unable to prepare the backup. + +The :file:`/data/backups/inc1/` directory should now contain delta files, such +as :file:`ibdata1.delta` and :file:`test/table1.ibd.delta`. These represent the +changes since the ``LSN 7666625``. If you examine the +:file:`xtrabackup_checkpoints` file in this directory, you should see something +similar to the following: + +.. code-block:: none + + backup_type = incremental + from_lsn = 7666625 + to_lsn = 8873920 + last_lsn = 8873929 + compact = 0 + recover_binlog_info = 1 + +You can use this directory as the base for yet another incremental backup: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/inc2 \ + --incremental-basedir=/data/backups/inc1 \ + --keyring-file-data=/var/lib/mysql-keyring/keyring + +.. rubric:: Preparing Incremental Backups + +The :option:`--prepare` step for incremental backups is not the same as for +normal backups. In normal backups, two types of operations are performed to make +the database consistent: committed transactions are replayed from the log file +against the data files, and uncommitted transactions are rolled back. You must +skip the rollback of uncommitted transactions when preparing a backup, because +transactions that were uncommitted at the time of your backup may be in +progress, and it's likely that they will be committed in the next incremental +backup. You should use the :option:`--apply-log-only` option to prevent the +rollback phase. + +.. warning:: + + If you do not use the :option:`--apply-log-only` option to prevent the + rollback phase, then your incremental backups are useless. After + transactions have been rolled back, further incremental backups cannot be + applied. + +Beginning with the full backup you created, you can prepare it and then apply +the incremental differences to it. Recall that you have the following backups: + +.. code-block:: bash + + /data/backups/base + /data/backups/inc1 + /data/backups/inc2 + +To prepare the base backup, you need to run :option:`--prepare` as usual, but +prevent the rollback phase: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --prepare --apply-log-only --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ + --keyring-file-data=/var/lib/mysql-keyring/keyring + +The output should end with some text such as the following: + +.. code-block:: bash + + InnoDB: Shutdown completed; log sequence number 7666643 + InnoDB: Number of pools: 1 + 160401 12:31:11 completed OK! + +To apply the first incremental backup to the full backup, you should use the +following command: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --prepare --apply-log-only --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ + --incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc1 \ + --keyring-file-data=/var/lib/mysql-keyring/keyring + +.. warning:: + + The backup should be prepared with the keyring file and type that was used when backup was being + taken. This means that if the keyring has been rotated or you have upgraded from a plugin to a component between the base and + incremental backup that you must use the keyring that was in use when + the first incremental backup has been taken. + +Preparing the second incremental backup is a similar process: apply the deltas +to the (modified) base backup, and you will roll its data forward in time to the +point of the second incremental backup: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --prepare --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ + --incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc2 \ + --keyring-file-data=/var/lib/mysql-keyring/keyring + +.. note:: + + :option:`--apply-log-only` should be used when merging all + incrementals except the last one. That's why the previous line doesn't contain + the :option:`--apply-log-only` option. Even if the :option:`--apply-log-only` + was used on the last step, backup would still be consistent but in that case + server would perform the rollback phase. + +The backup is now prepared and can be restored with :option:`--copy-back` option. In +case the keyring has been rotated you'll need to restore the keyring which was +used to take and prepare the backup. + +Using Key Management Interoperability Protocol +============================================== + +This feature is *tech preview* quality. + +Percona XtraBackup 8.0.27-19 adds support for the Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) which enables the communication between the key management system and encrypted database server. + +Percona XtraBackup has no special requirements for backing up a database that contains encrypted InnoDB tablespaces. + +Percona XtraBackup performs the following actions: + +1.

Stores the KMIP server configuration settings in the ``xtrabackup_component_keyring_kmip.cnf`` file in the backup directory + +When preparing the backup, Percona XtraBackup connects to the KMIP server with the settings from the ``xtrabackup_component_keyring_kmip.cnf`` file. + +Restoring a Backup When Keyring Is not Available +================================================================================ + +While the described restore method works, this method requires access to the same +keyring that the server is using. It may not be possible if the backup is prepared +on a different server or at a much later time, when keys in the keyring are +purged, or, in the case of a malfunction, when the keyring vault server is not +available at all. + +The ``--transition-key=`` option should be used to make it possible +for *xtrabackup* to process the backup without access to the keyring vault +server. In this case, *xtrabackup* derives the AES encryption key from the +specified passphrase and will use it to encrypt tablespace keys of tablespaces +that are being backed up. + +.. rubric:: Creating a Backup with a Passphrase + +The following example illustrates how the backup can be created in this case: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --backup --user=root -p --target-dir=/data/backup \ + --transition-key=MySecetKey + +If ``--transition-key`` is specified without a value, *xtrabackup* will ask for +it. + +.. note:: + + *xtrabackup* scrapes ``--transition-key`` so that its value is not visible in + the ``ps`` command output. + +.. rubric:: Preparing the Backup with a Passphrase + +The same passphrase should be specified for the `prepare` command: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backup \ + --transition-key=MySecretKey + +There are no ``--keyring-vault...``,``--keyring-file...``, or ``--component-keyring-file-config`` options here, +because *xtrabackup* does not talk to the keyring in this case. + +.. rubric:: Restoring the Backup with a Generated Key + +When restoring a backup you will need to generate a new master key. Here is the +example for ``keyring_file`` plugin or component: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --copy-back --target-dir=/data/backup --datadir=/data/mysql \ + --transition-key=MySecetKey --generate-new-master-key \ + --keyring-file-data=/var/lib/mysql-keyring/keyring + +In case of ``keyring_vault``, it will look like this: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --copy-back --target-dir=/data/backup --datadir=/data/mysql \ + --transition-key=MySecetKey --generate-new-master-key \ + --keyring-vault-config=/etc/vault.cnf + +*xtrabackup* will generate a new master key, store it in the target keyring +vault server and re-encrypt the tablespace keys using this key. + +.. rubric:: Making the Backup with a Stored Transition Key + +Finally, there is an option to store a transition key in the keyring.

It is possible to specify +:option:`--incremental-force-scan` to read all the pages even if the +bitmap data is available. + +.. important:: + + Incremental backups do not actually compare the data files to the previous + backup's data files. For this reason, running an incremental backup after a + *partial backup* may lead to inconsistent data. + + Incremental backups simply read the pages and compare their :term:`LSN` to + the last backup's :term:`LSN`. You still need a full backup to recover the + incremental changes, however; without a full backup to act as a base, the + incremental backups are useless. + + You can use the :option:`--incremental-lsn` option to perform an incremental + backup without even having the previous backup, if you know its :term:`LSN`. + + .. seealso:: :ref:`pxb.partial-backup` + +Creating an Incremental Backup +============================== + +To make an incremental backup, begin with a full backup as usual. The +*xtrabackup* binary writes a file called :file:`xtrabackup_checkpoints` into +the backup's target directory. This file contains a line showing the +``to_lsn``, which is the database's :term:`LSN` at the end of the backup. +:ref:`Create the full backup ` with a following command: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/base + +If you look at the :file:`xtrabackup_checkpoints` file, you should see similar +content depending on your LSN nuber: + +.. code-block:: text + + backup_type = full-backuped + from_lsn = 0 + to_lsn = 1626007 + last_lsn = 1626007 + compact = 0 + recover_binlog_info = 1 + +Now that you have a full backup, you can make an incremental backup based on +it. Use the following command: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/inc1 \ + --incremental-basedir=/data/backups/base + +The :file:`/data/backups/inc1/` directory should now contain delta files, such +as :file:`ibdata1.delta` and :file:`test/table1.ibd.delta`. These represent the +changes since the ``LSN 1626007``. If you examine the +:file:`xtrabackup_checkpoints` file in this directory, you should see similar +content to the following: + +.. code-block:: text + + backup_type = incremental + from_lsn = 1626007 + to_lsn = 4124244 + last_lsn = 4124244 + compact = 0 + recover_binlog_info = 1 + +``from_lsn`` is the starting LSN of the backup and for incremental it has to be +the same as ``to_lsn`` (if it is the last checkpoint) of the previous/base +backup. + +It's now possible to use this directory as the base for yet another incremental +backup: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/inc2 \ + --incremental-basedir=/data/backups/inc1 + +This folder also contains the :file:`xtrabackup_checkpoints`: + +.. code-block:: text + + backup_type = incremental + from_lsn = 4124244 + to_lsn = 6938371 + last_lsn = 7110572 + compact = 0 + recover_binlog_info = 1 + +.. note:: + + In this case you can see that there is a difference between the ``to_lsn`` + (last checkpoint LSN) and ``last_lsn`` (last copied LSN), this means that + there was some traffic on the server during the backup process. + +.. _preparing_incremental_backups: + +Preparing the Incremental Backups +================================= + +The :option:`--prepare` step for incremental backups is not the same +as for full backups. In full backups, two types of operations are performed to +make the database consistent: committed transactions are replayed from the log +file against the data files, and uncommitted transactions are rolled back. You +must skip the rollback of uncommitted transactions when preparing an +incremental backup, because transactions that were uncommitted at the time of +your backup may be in progress, and it's likely that they will be committed in +the next incremental backup. You should use the +:option:`--apply-log-only` option to prevent the rollback phase. + +.. warning:: + + **If you do not use the** :option:`--apply-log-only` **option to + prevent the rollback phase, then your incremental backups will be useless**. + After transactions have been rolled back, further incremental backups cannot + be applied. + +Beginning with the full backup you created, you can prepare it, and then apply +the incremental differences to it. Recall that you have the following backups: + +.. code-block:: bash + + /data/backups/base + /data/backups/inc1 + /data/backups/inc2 + +To prepare the base backup, you need to run :option:`--prepare` as +usual, but prevent the rollback phase: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --prepare --apply-log-only --target-dir=/data/backups/base + +The output should end with text similar to the following: + +.. code-block:: text + + InnoDB: Shutdown completed; log sequence number 1626007 + 161011 12:41:04 completed OK! + +The log sequence number should match the ``to_lsn`` of the base backup, which +you saw previously. + +.. note:: + + This backup is actually safe to :ref:`restore ` as-is + now, even though the rollback phase has been skipped. If you restore it and + start *MySQL*, *InnoDB* will detect that the rollback phase was not + performed, and it will do that in the background, as it usually does for a + crash recovery upon start. It will notify you that the database was not shut + down normally. + +To apply the first incremental backup to the full backup, run the following +command: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --prepare --apply-log-only --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ + --incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc1 + +This applies the delta files to the files in :file:`/data/backups/base`, which +rolls them forward in time to the time of the incremental backup. It then +applies the redo log as usual to the result. The final data is in +:file:`/data/backups/base`, not in the incremental directory. You should see +an output similar to: + +.. code-block:: text + + incremental backup from 1626007 is enabled. + xtrabackup: cd to /data/backups/base + xtrabackup: This target seems to be already prepared with --apply-log-only. + xtrabackup: xtrabackup_logfile detected: size=2097152, start_lsn=(4124244) + ... + xtrabackup: page size for /tmp/backups/inc1/ibdata1.delta is 16384 bytes + Applying /tmp/backups/inc1/ibdata1.delta to ./ibdata1... + ... + 161011 12:45:56 completed OK! + +Again, the LSN should match what you saw from your earlier inspection of the +first incremental backup. If you restore the files from +:file:`/data/backups/base`, you should see the state of the database as of the +first incremental backup. + +.. warning:: + + *Percona XtraBackup* does not support using the same incremental backup directory to prepare + two copies of backup. Do not run :option:`--prepare` with the same + incremental backup directory (the value of `--incremental-dir`) more than + once. + +Preparing the second incremental backup is a similar process: apply the deltas +to the (modified) base backup, and you will roll its data forward in time to +the point of the second incremental backup: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --prepare --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ + --incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc2 + +.. note:: + + :option:`--apply-log-only` should be used when merging all incrementals except + the last one. That's why the previous line doesn't contain the + :option:`--apply-log-only` option. Even if the :option:`--apply-log-only` was + used on the last step, backup would still be consistent but in that case server + would perform the rollback phase. + +Once prepared incremental backups are the same as the :ref:`full backups +` and they can be :ref:`restored ` in the same +way. + + diff --git a/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/source/conf-material/conf.py b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/source/conf-material/conf.py new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..66feb4ad4c8d --- /dev/null +++ b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/source/conf-material/conf.py @@ -0,0 +1,34 @@ +#!/usr/bin/env python3 +# -*- coding: utf-8 -*- +import sys +import os +sys.path.append(os.path.abspath("../")) +from conf import * +extensions.append('sphinx_gitstamp') +extensions.append('sphinx_copybutton') +html_sidebars['**']=['globaltoc.html', 'searchbox.html', 'localtoc.html', 'logo-text.html'] +html_theme = 'sphinx_material' +html_theme_options = { + 'base_url': 'http://bashtage.github.io/sphinx-material/', + 'repo_url': 'https://github.com/percona/percona-xtrabackup', + 'repo_name': 'percona/percona-xtrabackup', + 'color_accent': 'grey', + 'color_primary': 'orange', + 'globaltoc_collapse': True, + 'version_dropdown': True, + 'version_dropdown_text': 'Versions', + 'version_info': { + "2.4": "https://docs.percona.com/percona-xtrabackup/2.4/", + "8.0": "https://docs.percona.com/percona-xtrabackup/8.0/", + "Latest": "https://docs.percona.com/percona-xtrabackup/latest/" + }, +} +html_logo = '../_static/percona-logo.svg' +html_favicon = '../_static/percona_favicon.ico' +pygments_style = 'emacs' +gitstamp_fmt = "%b %d, %Y" +# Specify the text pattern that won't be copied with the code block contents +copybutton_prompt_text = '$' +# Add any paths that contain templates here, relative to this directory. +templates_path = ['../_templates/theme'] +#html_last_updated_fmt = '' diff --git a/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/source/conf.py b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/source/conf.py new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..190c1a054e19 --- /dev/null +++ b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/source/conf.py @@ -0,0 +1,299 @@ +# -*- coding: utf-8 -*- +# +# Percona XtraBackup documentation build configuration file, created by +# sphinx-quickstart on Mon Jun 27 22:27:15 2011. +# +# This file is execfile()d with the current directory set to its containing dir. +# +# Note that not all possible configuration values are present in this +# autogenerated file. +# +# All configuration values have a default; values that are commented out +# serve to show the default. + +import sys, os + +# If extensions (or modules to document with autodoc) are in another directory, +# add these directories to sys.path here.

This contains a record of every change to InnoDB data. When *InnoDB* +starts, it inspects the data files and the transaction log, and performs two +steps. It applies committed transaction log entries to the data files, and it +performs an undo operation on any transactions that modified data but did not +commit. + +*Percona XtraBackup* works by remembering the log sequence number (:term:`LSN`) +when it starts, and then copying away the data files. It takes some time to do +this, so if the files are changing, then they reflect the state of the database +at different points in time. At the same time, *Percona XtraBackup* runs a +background process that watches the transaction log files, and copies changes +from it. *Percona XtraBackup* needs to do this continually because the +transaction logs are written in a round-robin fashion, and can be reused after a +while. *Percona XtraBackup* needs the transaction log records for every change +to the data files since it began execution. + +*Percona XtraBackup* uses `Backup locks +`_ +where available as a lightweight alternative to ``FLUSH TABLES WITH READ +LOCK``.

After this is completed +*xtrabackup* will unlock the binary log and tables. + +Finally, the binary log position will be printed to ``STDERR`` and *xtrabackup* +will exit returning 0 if all went OK. + +Note that the ``STDERR`` of *xtrabackup* is not written in any file. You will +have to redirect it to a file, e.g., ``xtrabackup OPTIONS 2> backupout.log``. + +It will also create the :ref:`following files ` in the +directory of the backup. + +During the prepare phase, *Percona XtraBackup* performs crash recovery against +the copied data files, using the copied transaction log file. After this is +done, the database is ready to restore and use. + +The backed-up *MyISAM* and *InnoDB* tables will be eventually consistent with +each other, because after the prepare (recovery) process, *InnoDB*'s data is +rolled forward to the point at which the backup completed, not rolled back to +the point at which it started.

It will preserve file's attributes when copying them, you may have to +change the files' ownership to ``mysql`` before starting the database server, as +they will be owned by the user who created the backup. + +Alternatively, the :option:`--move-back` option may be used to +restore a backup. This option is similar to :option:`--copy-back` +with the only difference that instead of copying files it moves them to their +target locations.

This helps enable Percona to +focus our development effort accordingly based on trends within our customer +community. + +The purpose of this document is to articulate the information that is collected, +as well as to provide guidance on how to disable this functionality if desired. + +Usage +================================================================================ + +*Version Check* was implemented in *Percona Toolkit* 2.1.4, and was enabled by default in +version 2.2.1. Currently it is supported as a ``--[no]version-check`` option +by `a number of tools in Percona Toolkit `_, +*Percona XtraBackup*, and *Percona Monitoring and Management* (PMM). + +When launched with Version Check enabled, the tool that supports this feature +connects to a Percona's *version check service* via a secure HTTPS channel. It +compares the locally installed version for possible updates, and also checks +versions of the following software: + +* Operating System +* Percona Monitoring and Management (PMM) +* MySQL +* Perl +* MySQL driver for Perl (DBD::mysql) +* Percona Toolkit + +Then it checks for and warns about versions with known problems if they are +identified as running in the environment. + +Each version check request is logged by the server. Stored information consists +of the checked system unique ID followed by the software name and version. The +ID is generated either at installation or when the *version checking* query is +submitted for the first time. + +.. note:: + + Prior to version 3.0.7 of *Percona Toolkit*, the system ID was calculated as an MD5 hash + of a hostname, and starting from *Percona Toolkit* 3.0.7 it is generated as an MD5 hash of + a random number. *Percona XtraBackup* continues to use hostname-based MD5 hash. + +As a result, the content of the sent query is as follows:: + + 85624f3fb5d2af8816178ea1493ed41a;DBD::mysql;4.044 + c2b6d625ef3409164cbf8af4985c48d3;MySQL;MySQL Community Server (GPL) 5.7.22-log + 85624f3fb5d2af8816178ea1493ed41a;OS;Manjaro Linux + 85624f3fb5d2af8816178ea1493ed41a;Percona::Toolkit;3.0.11-dev + 85624f3fb5d2af8816178ea1493ed41a;Perl;5.26.2 + +Disabling Version Check +================================================================================ + +Although the *version checking* feature does not collect any personal information, +you might prefer to disable this feature, either one time or permanently.

This means that you must run *xtrabackup* as a user who +has permission to write the data files. The reason for opening the files in +read-write mode is that *xtrabackup* uses the embedded *InnoDB* libraries to +open and read the files, and *InnoDB* opens them in read-write mode because it +normally assumes it is going to write to them. + +Tuning the OS Buffers +================================================================================ + +Because *xtrabackup* reads large amounts of data from the filesystem, it uses +``posix_fadvise()`` where possible, to instruct the operating system not to try +to cache the blocks it reads from disk. Without this hint, the operating system +would prefer to cache the blocks, assuming that ``xtrabackup`` is likely to need +them again, which is not the case. Caching such large files can place pressure +on the operating system's virtual memory and cause other processes, such as the +database server, to be swapped out. The ``xtrabackup`` tool avoids this with the +following hint on both the source and destination files: :: + + posix_fadvise(file, 0, 0, POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) + +In addition, xtrabackup asks the operating system to perform more aggressive +read-ahead optimizations on the source files: :: + + posix_fadvise(file, 0, 0, POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL) + +Copying Data Files +================================================================================ + +When copying the data files to the target directory, *xtrabackup* reads and +writes 1 MB of data at a time. This is not configurable. When copying the log +file, *xtrabackup* reads and writes 512 bytes at a time. This is also not +possible to configure, and matches InnoDB's behavior (workaround exists in +*Percona Server for MySQL* because it has an option to tune +``innodb_log_block_size`` for *XtraDB*, and in that case *Percona XtraBackup* will match the tuning). + +After reading from the files, ``xtrabackup`` iterates over the 1MB buffer a page +at a time, and checks for page corruption on each page with InnoDB's +``buf_page_is_corrupted()`` function. If the page is corrupt, it re-reads and +retries up to 10 times for each page. It skips this check on the doublewrite +buffer. diff --git a/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/source/xtrabackup_bin/incremental_backups.rst b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/source/xtrabackup_bin/incremental_backups.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..e45c3bf99419 --- /dev/null +++ b/storage/innobase/xtrabackup/doc/source/xtrabackup_bin/incremental_backups.rst @@ -0,0 +1,218 @@ +.. _xb_incremental: + +================================================================================ +Incremental Backups +================================================================================ + +*xtrabackup* supports incremental backups. It copies only the data that has +changed since the last full backup. You can perform many incremental backups +between each full backup, so you can set up a backup process such as a full +backup once a week and an incremental backup every day, or full backups every +day and incremental backups every hour. + +.. note:: Incremental backups on the MyRocks storage engine do not determine if an earlier full backup or incremental backup contains the same files. **Percona XtraBackup** copies all of the MyRocks files each time it takes a backup. + +Incremental backups work because each InnoDB page (usually 16kb in size) +contains a log sequence number, or :term:`LSN`. The :term:`LSN` is the system +version number for the entire database. Each page's :term:`LSN` shows how +recently it was changed. An incremental backup copies each page whose +:term:`LSN` is newer than the previous incremental or full backup's +:term:`LSN`. There are two algorithms in use to find the set of such pages to be +copied. The first one, available with all the server types and versions, is to +check the page :term:`LSN` directly by reading all the data pages. The second +one, available with *Percona Server for MySQL*, is to enable the `changed page tracking +`_ +feature on the server, which will note the pages as they are being changed. This +information will be then written out in a compact separate so-called bitmap +file. The *xtrabackup* binary will use that file to read only the data pages it +needs for the incremental backup, potentially saving many read requests. The +latter algorithm is enabled by default if the *xtrabackup* binary finds the +bitmap file. It is possible to specify :option:`--incremental-force-scan` to +read all the pages even if the bitmap data is available. + +Incremental backups do not actually compare the data files to the previous +backup's data files. In fact, you can use :option:`--incremental-lsn` to perform +an incremental backup without even having the previous backup, if you know its +:term:`LSN`. Incremental backups simply read the pages and compare their +:term:`LSN` to the last backup's :term:`LSN`. You still need a full backup to +recover the incremental changes, however; without a full backup to act as a +base, the incremental backups are useless. + +Creating an Incremental Backup +================================================================================ + +To make an incremental backup, begin with a full backup as usual. The +*xtrabackup* binary writes a file called :file:`xtrabackup_checkpoints` into the +backup's target directory. This file contains a line showing the ``to_lsn``, +which is the database's :term:`LSN` at the end of the backup. :ref:`Create the +full backup ` with a command such as the following: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/base --datadir=/var/lib/mysql/ + +If you look at the :file:`xtrabackup_checkpoints` file, you should see contents +similar to the following: :: + + backup_type = full-backuped + from_lsn = 0 + to_lsn = 1291135 + +Now that you have a full backup, you can make an incremental backup based on +it. Use a command such as the following: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/inc1 \ + --incremental-basedir=/data/backups/base --datadir=/var/lib/mysql/ + +The :file:`/data/backups/inc1/` directory should now contain delta files, such +as :file:`ibdata1.delta` and :file:`test/table1.ibd.delta`. These represent the +changes since the ``LSN 1291135``. If you examine the +:file:`xtrabackup_checkpoints` file in this directory, you should see something +similar to the following: :: + + backup_type = incremental + from_lsn = 1291135 + to_lsn = 1291340 + +The meaning should be self-evident. It's now possible to use this directory as +the base for yet another incremental backup: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ xtrabackup --backup --target-dir=/data/backups/inc2 \ + --incremental-basedir=/data/backups/inc1 --datadir=/var/lib/mysql/ + +Preparing the Incremental Backups +================================================================================ + +The :option:`--prepare` step for incremental backups is not the same as for +normal backups. In normal backups, two types of operations are performed to make +the database consistent: committed transactions are replayed from the log file +against the data files, and uncommitted transactions are rolled back. You must +skip the rollback of uncommitted transactions when preparing a backup, because +transactions that were uncommitted at the time of your backup may be in +progress, and it is likely that they will be committed in the next incremental +backup. You should use the :option:`--apply-log-only` option to prevent the +rollback phase. + +.. note:: + + If you do not use the :option:`--apply-log-only` option to prevent the + rollback phase, then your incremental backups will be useless. After + transactions have been rolled back, further incremental backups cannot be + applied. + +Beginning with the full backup you created, you can prepare it, and then apply +the incremental differences to it. Recall that you have the following backups: +:: + + /data/backups/base + /data/backups/inc1 + /data/backups/inc2 + +To prepare the base backup, you need to run :option:`--prepare` as usual, but +prevent the rollback phase: :: + + xtrabackup --prepare --apply-log-only --target-dir=/data/backups/base + +The output should end with some text such as the following: :: + + 101107 20:49:43 InnoDB: Shutdown completed; log sequence number 1291135 + +The log sequence number should match the ``to_lsn`` of the base backup, which +you saw previously. + +This backup is actually safe to :ref:`restore ` as-is now, +even though the rollback phase has been skipped. If you restore it and start +*MySQL*, *InnoDB* will detect that the rollback phase was not performed, and it +will do that in the background, as it usually does for a crash recovery upon +start. It will notify you that the database was not shut down normally. + +To apply the first incremental backup to the full backup, you should use the +following command: :: + + xtrabackup --prepare --apply-log-only --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ + --incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc1 + +This applies the delta files to the files in :file:`/data/backups/base`, which +rolls them forward in time to the time of the incremental backup. It then +applies the redo log as usual to the result. The final data is in +:file:`/data/backups/base`, not in the incremental directory. You should see +some output such as the following: :: + + incremental backup from 1291135 is enabled. + xtrabackup: cd to /data/backups/base/ + xtrabackup: This target seems to be already prepared. + xtrabackup: xtrabackup_logfile detected: size=2097152, start_lsn=(1291340) + Applying /data/backups/inc1/ibdata1.delta ... + Applying /data/backups/inc1/test/table1.ibd.delta ... + .... snip + 101107 20:56:30 InnoDB: Shutdown completed; log sequence number 1291340 + +Again, the LSN should match what you saw from your earlier inspection of the +first incremental backup. If you restore the files from +:file:`/data/backups/base`, you should see the state of the database as of the +first incremental backup. + +Preparing the second incremental backup is a similar process: apply the deltas +to the (modified) base backup, and you will roll its data forward in time to the +point of the second incremental backup: :: + + xtrabackup --prepare --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ + --incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc2 + +.. note:: + + :option:`--apply-log-only` should be used when merging all incrementals + except the last one. That's why the previous line doesn't contain the + :option:`--apply-log-only` option. Even if the :option:`--apply-log-only` was + used on the last step, backup would still be consistent but in that case + server would perform the rollback phase. + +If you wish to avoid the notice that *InnoDB* was not shut down normally, when +you applied the desired deltas to the base backup, you can run +:option:`--prepare` again without disabling the rollback phase. + +Restoring Incremental Backups +================================================================================ + +After preparing the incremental backups, the base directory contains the same +data as the full backup.

Default is "select". + +.. option:: --lock-ddl + + Issue ``LOCK TABLES FOR BACKUP`` if it is supported by server (otherwise use + ``LOCK INSTANCE FOR BACKUP``) at the beginning of the backup to block all DDL + operations. + + .. note:: + + Prior to *Percona XtraBackup* 8.0.22-15.0, using a `safe-slave-backup` stops the SQL replica thread + after the InnoDB tables and before the non-InnoDB tables are backed up. + + As of *Percona XtraBackup* 8.0.22-15.0, using a `safe-slave-backup` option stops the SQL + replica thread before copying the InnoDB files. + +.. option:: --lock-ddl-per-table + + Lock DDL for each table before xtrabackup starts to copy + it and until the backup is completed. + + .. note:: + + + As of *Percona XtraBackup* 8.0.15, the `--lock-ddl-per-table` option is deprecated. Use the `--lock-ddl` option instead. + + +.. option:: --lock-ddl-timeout + + If ``LOCK TABLES FOR BACKUP`` or ``LOCK INSTANCE FOR BACKUP`` does not return + within given timeout, abort the backup. + +.. option:: --log + + This option is ignored for *MySQL* + +.. option:: --log-bin + + The base name for the log sequence. + +.. option:: --log-bin-index=name + + File that holds the names for binary log files. + +.. option:: --log-copy-interval=# + + This option specifies the time interval between checks done by the log + copying thread in milliseconds (default is 1 second). + +.. option:: --login-path + + Read the given path from the login file. + +.. option:: --move-back + + Move all the files in a previously made backup from the backup directory to + their original locations. As this option removes backup files, it must be + used with caution. + +.. option:: --no-backup-locks + + Explicity disables the :option:`--backup-locks` option which is enabled by + default. + +.. option:: --no-defaults + + The default options are only read from the login file. + +.. option:: --no-lock + + Use this option to disable table lock with ``FLUSH TABLES WITH READ + LOCK``. Use it only if ALL your tables are InnoDB and you **DO NOT CARE** + about the binary log position of the backup. This option shouldn't be used if + there are any ``DDL`` statements being executed or if any updates are + happening on non-InnoDB tables (this includes the system MyISAM tables in the + *mysql* database), otherwise it could lead to an inconsistent backup. Where + supported *xtrabackup* will automatically use `Backup Locks + `_ + as a lightweight alternative to ``FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK`` to copy + non-InnoDB data to avoid blocking DML queries that modify InnoDB tables. If + you are considering to use this because your backups are failing to acquire + the lock, this could be because of incoming replication events are preventing + the lock from succeeding. Please try using :option:`--safe-slave-backup` to + momentarily stop the replication replica thread, this may help the backup to + succeed and you do not need to use this option. + +.. option:: --no-server-version-check + + Implemented in *Percona XtraBackup* 8.0.21. + + The ``--no-server-version-check`` option disables the server version check. + + The default behavior runs a check that compares the source system version to the *Percona XtraBackup* version. If the source system version is higher than the XtraBackup version, the backup is aborted with a message. + + Adding the option overrides this check, and the backup proceeds, but there may be issues with the backup. + + See :ref:`comparison` for more information. + +.. option:: --no-version-check + + This option disables the version check. If you do not pass this option, the + automatic version check is enabled implicitly when *xtrabackup* runs + in the ``--backup`` mode. To disable the version check, you should pass + explicitly the ``--no-version-check`` option when invoking *xtrabackup*. + + When the automatic version check is enabled, *xtrabackup* performs a + version check against the server on the backup stage after creating a server + connection. *xtrabackup* sends the following information to the server: + + - MySQL flavour and version + - Operating system name + - Percona Toolkit version + - Perl version + + Each piece of information has a unique identifier. This is a MD5 hash value + that Percona Toolkit uses to obtain statistics about how it is used. This is + a random UUID; no client information is either collected or stored. + + +.. option:: --open-files-limit=# + + The maximum number of file descriptors to reserve with setrlimit(). + +.. option:: --parallel=# + + This option specifies the number of threads to use to copy multiple data + files concurrently when creating a backup. The default value is 1 (i.e., no + concurrent transfer). In *Percona XtraBackup* 2.3.10 and newer, this option + can be used with the :option:`--copy-back` option to copy the user + data files in parallel (redo logs and system tablespaces are copied in the + main thread). + +.. option:: --password=PASSWORD + + This option specifies the password to use when connecting to the database. + It accepts a string argument. See :command:`mysql --help` for details. + +.. option:: --plugin-load + + List of plugins to load. + +.. option:: --port=PORT + + This option accepts a string argument that specifies the port to use when + connecting to the database server with TCP/IP. It is passed to the + :command:`mysql` child process without alteration. See :command:`mysql + --help` for details. + +.. option:: --prepare + + Makes :program:`xtrabackup` perform a recovery on a backup created with + :option:`--backup`, so that it is ready to use. See + :ref:`preparing a backup `. + +.. option:: --print-defaults + + Print the program argument list and exit. Must be given as the first option + on the command-line. + +.. option:: --print-param + + Makes :program:`xtrabackup` print out parameters that can be used for + copying the data files back to their original locations to restore them. + +.. option:: --read-buffer-size + + Set the datafile read buffer size, given value is scaled up to page size.

This option only has effect when the + :option:`--prepare` and :option:`--rebuild-threads` options are provided. + +.. option:: --rebuild-threads=# + + Uses the given number of threads to rebuild indexes in a compact backup. This + option only has effect with the :option:`--prepare` and + :option:`--rebuild-indexes` options. + +.. option:: --remove-original + + Implemented in *Percona XtraBackup* 2.4.6, this option when specified will + remove :file:`.qp`, :file:`.xbcrypt` and :file:`.qp.xbcrypt` files after + decryption and decompression. + +.. option:: --rocksdb-datadir + + RocksDB data directory + +.. option:: --rocksdb-wal-dir + + RocksDB WAL directory. + +.. option:: --rocksdb-checkpoint-max-age + + The checkpoint cannot be older than this number of seconds when the backup + completes. + +.. option:: --rocksdb-checkpoint-max-count + + Complete the backup even if the checkpoint age requirement has not been met after + this number of checkpoints. + +.. option:: --rollback-prepared-trx + + Force rollback prepared InnoDB transactions. + +.. option:: --rsync + + Uses the :program:`rsync` utility to optimize local file transfers. When this + option is specified, *xtrabackup* uses :program:`rsync` to copy + all non-InnoDB files instead of spawning a separate :program:`cp` for each + file, which can be much faster for servers with a large number of databases + or tables. This option cannot be used together with :option:`--stream`. + +.. option:: --safe-slave-backup + + When specified, xtrabackup will stop the replica SQL thread just before + running ``FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK`` and wait to start backup until + ``Slave_open_temp_tables`` in ``SHOW STATUS`` is zero. If there are no open + temporary tables, the backup will take place, otherwise the SQL thread will + be started and stopped until there are no open temporary tables. The backup + will fail if ``Slave_open_temp_tables`` does not become zero after + :option:`--safe-slave-backup-timeout` seconds. The replication SQL + thread will be restarted when the backup finishes. This option is + implemented in order to deal with `replicating temporary tables + `_ + and isn't neccessary with Row-Based-Replication. + +.. option:: --safe-slave-backup-timeout=SECONDS + + How many seconds :option:`--safe-slave-backup` should wait for + ``Slave_open_temp_tables`` to become zero.

The same passphrase should be + specified for the :option:`--prepare` command. + +.. option:: --use-memory + + This option affects how much memory is allocated for preparing a backup with + :option:`--prepare`, or analyzing statistics with + :option:`--stats`. Its purpose is similar + to :term:`innodb_buffer_pool_size`.
