iLAB OVERVIEWScenario and SummarySuccessful database recovery re.docx
- 1. iLAB OVERVIEW Scenario and Summary Successful database recovery relies on the database being backed. This is what enables the database to recover data that were lost due to a media failure, loss of power, or any other type of disaster. Each time the online line redoes logs filled up in a log group, the DBMS issues a log switch that will move the log writer process from the current redo log group to the next one in line. The archive background process begins archiving the data in the full online log group files to the archive log files. This is done simultaneously for each log file in the group. If media recovery is needed at the time that the database needs recovery, then the DBMS will search through the archived log files to find the ones that need to be used. In Part 1, you will use mysqldump command to dump database, expand tables, and restore database. In Part 2, you will use MySQL Workbench to back up, expand tables, and restore the database. Note: Be sure that you are making screenshots and save in Lab4 Report. Deliverables Grading of the lab assignment will be based on the following.

There are several databases here now. To list them, type: Mysql>show databases; 3. Identify required database; You have to make database backup to be used later to restore. 4. Confirm the location of mysqldump utility on your local machine. Usually, it is: C:Program FilesMySQLMySQL Server5.6bin 5. Go to Start - Accessories – Point to Command Prompt and right-click on Run as administrator (to be able to have all types of access on PC). 6. Set up location using cd command: type in Command prompt: C:user username>cd C: and

C:Program FilesMySQLMySQL Server5.6>cd and press Enter. 7. Use mysqldump utility. a) In Command prompt, type: Mysqldump –uroot –p databasename > c:backup file name with extension .sql For example: “c:mis561.sql” Where sign > means to take output (from the left part) and put into the input (right part). All SQL instructions will be written to back-up file. Note: The location of back-up file has to be enclosed into the double quotes. Example: C:Program FilesMySQLMySQL Server5.6bin>Mysqldump – uroot –p databasename >c: backup file name with extension .sql b) Enter password; press Enter; c) In case of error Could not execute SELECT @@GTID_Mode, re-type with GTID options: Mysqldump –uroot –p

Save screenshot e) To verify back-up file: Start -All programs-Computer-Local Disk (C)-backup file.sql Save screenshot 8. Go to MySQL Command line – Unicode Using DESCRIBE statement show the columns in the table Mysql>describe databasename.tablename; Save screenshot Step 2 Expand table 1. Using ALTER command add 2 columns to the table Mysql>ALTER table databasename.tablename ADD col1 varchar(10); Save screenshot 2. Using DESCRIBE statement show the columns in the table Mysql>describe databasename.tablename; Save screenshot Step 3 Restore and recover the database 1.
