Mysql Database Restore On Linux#

To restore a mysql database server on linux is very simple. Mysql will keep all database related files within a directory with the name of the database. All databases on Hyve servers will usually be found in the /var/lib/mysql directory. So all is required is to restore the directory under the mysql home directory.

For example if your database was called testDB_1, you would need to restore the following directory

/var/lib/mysql/testDB_1
