🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

mysql-zrm-extract-backup
                [--source-directory directory_name]
                [--cleanup]
                [--backup-set name]

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so basically, this utility is the one you call when you wanna extract the backup data for a given backup-set. no cap. it pulls the data out into the directory you point at with source-directory, and it's very much main character about it ✨

and here's the tea: if you pass the --cleanup option, mysql-extract-backup deletes the extracted files in the target directory — but it leaves the data in the backup image intact. so like, the backup itself is safe, bestie, breathe 🫶

if you need the whole lore on how to configure and use ZRM for MySQL, please go read the ZRM for MySQL documentation at http://mysql-backup.zmanda.com/ — it's the procedures, the setup, the whole thing. iykyk 💜

📁 FILES 📁

  • /var/lib/mysql-zrm — the directory under which all backup data is stored. all of it. every last crumb 🍓
  • /etc/mysql-zrm/backup set name/mysql-zrm.conf — the ZRM for MySQL configuration file. yes, the backup set name part is literally the name of your backup set in there, she's a placeholder and she's iconic 👑

🌈 RETURN VALUES 🌈

  • On success — zero is returned. slay. we love a clean exit 🎉
  • On error — a non-zero value is returned. not slay, but informative 😭
