## notes ##

# configfile = < path/to/file > (default = /etc/mysql/debian.cnf)
# The config file is passed to mysql with --defaults-file.
# On debian, this default will allow backupninja to make backups
# of mysql without configuring any additional options. 
# (this option is not compatible with "user" or "dbusername").
#
# user = <user> (default = root)
# Run mysql commands as 'user'. A valid .my.cnf must exist with a 
# database username and password in the user's home directory.
# (this option is not compatible with "configfile" or "dbusername").
#
# dbusername = <dbuser> (no default)
# The user must have access to the databases specified later.
# (this option is not compatible with "configfile" or "user").
#
# dbpassword = <dbpass> (no default)
# The password used with dbusername. this password will NOT be passed 
# on the command line and is not readable using "ps aux".
#
# dbhost = <host> (default = localhost)
# only localhost works right now.
#
# databases = < all | db1 db2 db3 > (default = all)
# which databases to backup. should either be the word 'all' or a 
# space separated list of database names.
#
# backupdir = < path/to/destination > (default = /var/backups/mysql)
# where to dump the backups. hotcopy backups will be in a subdirectory 'hotcopy' and
# sqldump backups will be in a subdirectory 'sqldump'
#
# hotcopy = < yes | no > (default = yes)
# make a backup of the actual database binary files using mysqlhotcopy.
#
# sqldump = < yes | no > (default = no)
# make a backup using mysqldump. this creates text files with sql commands
# sufficient to recontruct the database.
#
# compress = < yes | no > (default = yes)
# if yes, compress the sqldump output. 
#
# vsname = <vserver> (no default)
# what vserver to operate on, only used if vserver = yes in /etc/backupninja.conf
# if you do not specify a vsname the host will be operated on
