Hi

 

I am trying to backup mysql database using xtrabackup. But it is giving me
error.

 

innobackupex-1.5.1 --defaults-file=/usr/local/mysql-5.5/my.cnf /backup/
--user=user --password=password
--ibbackup-binary=/home/deployer/xtrabackup-1.6.3/bin/xtrabackup_55

process (p

IMPORTANT: Please check that the backup run completes successfully.

           At the end of a successful backup run innobackupex

           prints "completed OK!".
