    Hi , Doing a bit of research on mysql backup / restore for a small project in work.

    Anyone recommend some good OS utilities to help do this on windows/linux ?

    The DB's that are being backed up contain myisam and innodb tables and are generally large (100+ GB's)

    Thanks

    You can use the mysqldump command to take a dump of your databases from the command line or via a script it comes with mysql.
    Also there are lots of scripts that are already written that do just what you need.
    Have a look here for an example http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/mysqlscript.htm
