Greetings

I’ve installed MySQL community edition 8.0.31,  
and percona-xtrabackup-80-8.0.30-23.1.el7.x86\_64.

Trying to execute a full backup - it fails with messages :  
2023-01-08T14:12:09.232391+02:00 0 [ERROR] [MY-011825] [Xtrabackup] Unsupported server version 8.0.31  
2023-01-08T14:12:09.232432+02:00 0 [ERROR] [MY-011825] [Xtrabackup] Please upgrade PXB, if a new version is available. To continue with risk, use the option --no-server-version-check.

I understand from that that percona-xtrabackup-80-8.0.30-23.1 does not support mysql 8.0.31.  
Is that correct ?  
Is there any forecast for xtrabackup availability - compatible with mysql 8.0.31 ?

Many thanks in advance,

@avi_vainshtein,  
We will release Xtrabackup 8.0.31 when we also release Percona Server for MySQL 8.0.31. As the message says, you can use `--no-server-version-check` to ignore this version mismatch. Also, please follow best practices of making sure all tooling is available for your upgrade _before_ you upgrade. Test in dev environments before upgrading production. You could also switch to MySQL Community 8.0.30 to match the versions.

@matthewb  
Many thanks for the reply, indeed the “–no-server-version-check” allows xtrabackup to finish OK.  
I hope that Percona Server for MySQL 8.0.31 will be released in the nearest future, so there will be no need in that workaround.  
Many thanks and best regards  
Avi
