Internal Database Protection

Kodo for Cloud stores all of the metadata in the local database. It is highly recommended to setup periodic DB backup on Kodo for Cloud Server. To backup your database u can use mysqldump command: syntax:

#mysqldump -u [user] -p [database_name] > [filename].sql

example:

#mysqldump -u root -p kodo > kodo_backup.sql

Once you have your backup you can restore DB with the mysql command: syntax:

#mysql -u [user] -p [database_name] < [filename].sql

example:

#mysql -u root -p kodo < kodo_backup.sql
