Hello dear forum,

I’m using a percona server in docker (percona/pmm-server:3.0.0) with pmm-client (v3.0.0). I can also reach the monitoring system (Grafana) and the monitored service through the UI.

PMM Server:  
URL : [https://xxxxxxxxx/](https://xxxxxxxxx/)  
Version: 3.0.0

PMM Client:  
Connected : true  
Time drift : 8.122µs  
Latency : 222.257µs  
Connection uptime: 100  
pmm-admin version: 3.0.0  
pmm-agent version: 3.0.0

When I try to create a backup of the monitored service data on the UI, I get this error message:

Backup/ Local Client (not available for MySql)

How can I create a backup from data in percona-server?  
Thank you for help advices !

BR,  
G

@geza.sztupovszki,  
Ensure that Percona Xtrabackup is available in the same location as MySQL server.

You can not create local backups from MySQL.
