(Sorry, I posted this in the wrong forum section before.)
I’m trying to do a backup with the following command (which works fine with other servers):
/usr/bin/innobackupex --no-lock --safe-slave-backup --slave-info "/some/location"
So what this does is:

At the end of a successful backup run innobackupex
prints "completed OK!".

xtrabackup: cd to /var/lib/mysql/data
xtrabackup: open files limit requested 65535, set to 65535
xtrabackup: using the following InnoDB configuration:
xtrabackup: innodb_data_home_dir = ./
xtrabackup: innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:100M:autoextend:max:100G
xtrabackup: innodb_log_group_home_dir = ./
xtrabackup: innodb_log_files_in_group = 2
xtrabackup: innodb_log_file_size = 3221225472
xtrabackup: using O_DIRECT
And it just hangs there forever. In the target directory, I see an ever-growing xtrabackup_logfile. I let it grow up to 20GB then I killed the backup.
Am I doing something wrong?
Update: I see no change if I remove the
--no-lock --safe-slave-backup --slave-info
options (or any subset of them).
