Solution for MySQL Server on Windows

[VBoss]

We are considering using Veeam for backing up our MySQL databases on Windows. Does Veeam have a solution for such workloads? We are specifically interested in verifying integrity of backups and if we can avoid stopping the MySQL Server process before initiating the backup.

Hello,
and welcome to the forums.

for MySQL on Windows, there is scripting available. Nothing built-in.

https://www.veeam.com/wp-consistent-pro ... riadb.html might be a good starting point for the scripts. They just need to be adopted for Windows.

Best regards,
Hannes

Is a built-in solution planned? We have many 15TB+ MySQL databases on Windows and a built-in solution would be really helpful.

Hello,
and welcome to the forums.

Nothing is planned for the near future. MySQL on Windows is a pretty rare request (and the script is not really complicated what I remember). Also please note, that we support Oracle MySQL out of the box (just in case you have the open source software).

Best regards,
Hannes
