How to recover large database


ken0306

Recommended Posts

My database for the shopping cart currently is over 15MB with .gz file. So, even I change my server's timeout, it still take a long time to restore it. So, is there any software or add-on allow me to break the backup data in couple of small files ?

Thank you

Check with your host to see if they offer shell access. You can upload/download a database that size in less than a minute using the shell. You may also want to install the Database Optimizer contribution (see My Addons). Large databases usually have a lot of old entries that needlessly bloat the database. That contribution will remove them on a regular basis.
