Commvault protects MySQL database in AWS Outposts.
You can configure a database server to represent the AWS Outposts. You can back up individual database groups, restore database in-place and out-of-place to a different server.
For more information, see MySQL.
What Gets Backed Up
MySQL system databases
MySQL user databases
MySQL databases (data and logs)
What Does Not Get Backed Up
Operating system data
MySQL application files
MySQL Server information schema
MySQL Server performance schema
Considerations
The following Amazon RDS system components are required:
A MediaAgent
An access node that facilitates the backup and restore operations
An Amazon RDS virtualization client
For more information, see Amazon RDS System Components.
MySQL Configuration
To configure a MySQL server instance that is hosted in the Amazon RDS cloud, create an EC2 instance in the Amazon cloud to function as the access node, add the access node in the CommCell Console, create a virtualization client to function as the pseudoclient, and then add the MySQL server instance to the pseudoclient.
For more information, see Configuration for Amazon RDS for MySQL.
MySQL Backup
You can perform a logical data dump backup of the data. When you perform a backup operation, the Commvault software invokes the MySQL mysqldump client utility to perform the backup operation.
For more information, see Backing Up a MySQL Database.
MySQL Restore
You can restore a MySQL server in the Amazon RDS cloud. The destination can be the same instance as the backup or a different instance. You can perform the restore operation from the Amazon RDS virtualization client computer.
For more information, see Restoring MySQL Instances.
