Debian MySQL & OpenLDAP - file level backup

Hi All,

The MySQL & OpenLDAP database on my Debian are very lightly updated.
Usually I tar everything on / including the databases.
The restore works OK on another machine.

I want to know whether its safe to do file level backup of databases like this ?

Do the MySQL & OpenLDAP databases have mechanisms to start even if some records are inconsistent ?

NAME
grass-mesql - MySQL embedded driver MySQL embedded driver MySQL embedded driver in GRASS MySQL database driver in GRASS enables GRASS to store vector attributes in MySQL embedded database without necessity to run MySQL server. Driver and database name GRASS modules require 2 parameters to connect to a database. Those parameters are 'driver' and 'database'. For MySQL embedded driver the parameter 'driver' should be set to value 'mesql'. The parameter 'database' is a full path to the directory where database tables are stored. The best place is a directory in the mapset. The directory must be created before use of the driver. In the name of database it is possible to use 3 variables: $GISDBASE - path to current GISBASE $LOCATION_NAME - name of current location $MAPSET - name of current mapset Examples of connection parameters: db.connect driver=mesql database='$GISDBASE/$LOCATION_NAME/$MAPSET/mysql' db.connect driver=mesql database=/home/user1/db Data types, indexes For more informations about supported data types and indexes see the documentation for MySQL (mysql) driver Database type Because database closing was found very slow if InnoDB was used, the InnoDB storage is disabled by default (hardcoded '--skip-innodb' server option). Note The embedded server is started with hardcoded '--bootstrap' option to avoid warning about missing mysql.time_zone_leap_second table. This can be fixed in future. SEE ALSO
db.connect, SQL support in GRASS GIS Credits Development of the driver was sponsored by Faunalia (Italy) as part of a project for ATAC. AUTHOR
