To create a database backup file or a mysqldump, simply install our free Database Backup plugin. This plugin avoids extended inserts*, which complicate dump files with multiple-row syntax.
(*) Extended inserts include several (sometimes hundreds) VALUES lists per insert statement.
The Database Backup plugin also copies large database files to the BigDump restore folder, eliminating the need for an FTP application when restoring with BigDump, thus resolving challenges such as SQL restore hangs and restore failures on large datasets.
Note
BigDump original script will fail processing large tables containing extended inserts (look above).
Important:
When you restore, your current database will be erased and it is not possible undo that. Then, run a backup and download it to your local computer before proceed.
