Percona XtraBackup is free and open source backup tool for MySQL. Percona distributes XtraBackup via package repositories for RedHat and Debian .
Unfortunately there are no packages for Mac OS. In this post I will describe how to build XtraBackup for Mac OS.
Dependencies
To build and use XtraBackup on Mac OS you need to install some additional packages. I will use MacPorts to install the dependencies.
# port install cmake p5.16-dbd-mysql
Building XtraBackup for Mac OS
Download the source code fromhttps://www.percona.com/downloads/XtraBackup/LATEST/
# wget https://www.percona.com/downloads/XtraBackup/Percona-XtraBackup-2.2.10/source/tarball/percona-xtrabackup-2.2.10.tar.gz
Untar the archive:
# tar zxf percona-xtrabackup-2.2.10.tar.gz
Build the binaries.
# cd percona-xtrabackup-2.2.10 # cmake -DBUILD_CONFIG=xtrabackup_release && make
XtraBackup comes with a perl script innobackupex that can be found instorage/innobase/xtrabackup/ . The script is a wrapper around few binaries XtraBackup needs to work. They are built in storage/innobase/xtrabackup/src :xbcrypt , xbstream and xtrabackup .
Installing XtraBackup for Mac OS
To install XtraBackup use a Makefile:
# make -C storage/innobase/xtrabackup/ install
It will install XtraBackup in /usr/local/xtrabackup/ . The binaries will be placed in/usr/local/xtrabackup/bin/ so make sure it’s in the $PATH.
XtraBackup Package
For your convenience we built and packaged XtraBackup for Mac OS. The package installs the binaries in /opt/local/bin which should be in your $PATH. I tested XtraBackup on OS X 10.10 Yosemite.
