MySQL: Take a Table Backup or Ignore few Tables in a Backup

This article is half-done without your Comment! *** Please share your thoughts via Comment ***

In this post, I am sharing a solution to take an only table or few tables backup in MySQL and also sharing solution like, How you can ignore few tables while taking a backup of MySQL Database.

In last year, I shared a basic article on how to take a backup of the database in MySQL, which also you can access here.

MySQL: Backup and Restore Database using mysqldump

The copying data from one server to another, data migration, the backup requirement for specific data or object or stored procedure, data versioning – These all are part of DBA’s day to day activity, and N number combinations are there.

There are many options available for mysqldump utility, so I am using few options to play for table backup only. Let me explore few options related to table backup in MySQL.

Take a backup of a single table:

1
mysqldump -u -p db_name table_name > table_name_backup.sql

Take a backup of multiple tables:

1
mysqldump -u -p db_name table_name_1 table_name_2 table_name_3 > tables_backup.sql

Ignore a table from full database backup:

1
mysqldump -u -p db_name --ignore-table=db_name.table_name_1 > db_backup.sql
