I would love to have everything right now and I agree with you that not having backup statement in stored procedures etc is a tough restriction. Having it work together would be really cool and something that many would find really useful.<BR/><BR/>However, we want to release a production-quality MySQL 6.0 server with backup as soon as possible and this means that we are need to limit ourselves and focus on stabilizing the code - fixing bugs and testing every feature thoroughly. In a few months, we will re-visit feature requests like this and see if we have time to fix them for the 6.0 release.<BR/><BR/>It is a question about "release often" or "release with many features at once". We are working to release MySQL more often, and this means that some features will have to wait for the next release.<BR/><BR/>If this feature does not make it for MySQL 6.0 (it does not look so right now), we will add it later. We recognize it is an important feature.<BR/><BR/>Best wishes,<BR/>Lars Thalmann<BR/>Manager and Technical Lead,<BR/>MySQL Backup and Replication<BR/><BR/><BR/>Reference:<BR/>The bug that needs to be fixed for this feature to work: <A HREF="http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=36333" REL="nofollow">BUG#36333</A>Lars Thalmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15394631458897701651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7344264656347739323.post-69233902478566642462008-07-14T05:16:00.000-07:002008-07-14T05:16:00.000-07:00Well, if you read the manual for the online backup...Well, if you read the manual for the online backup part you'll see that it does not actually back up any of the system tables. Most of us back up the "mysql" database when we back things up, so .... I do not think online backup will be as useful as we want it to be.Sheeri K.
