xtrabackup (innobackupex-1.5.1) never stops

MySQL & MariaDB Percona XtraBackup

I am backing up a slave using this command:

innobackupex-1.5.1 --slave-info --stream=tar $BaseDir | ssh remotehost “gzip > /opt/backups/xtra/master/TargetFile.tar.gz”

When I run this on the master, it finishes in 15mins or so. The command above on the slave has been going for over 2 hours now… all I see is lines like this. Should I Control-C and start over? Seems like a bug to me.

Hi rajulvora,

Do you mind pasting from the origin server:

  • Your my.cnf file
  • The output from SHOW INNODB STATUS

I’m interested to know both how far behind on background work InnoDB was at the time of the backup, and what the size of your log files are.
