- wild_egg 1y agoIt only freezes your application if you've misconfigured it.
- vanviegen 1y agoIf you want to backup your database using just a file copy, you'd better freeze your database if you value your data. Or use a fancy snapshotting filesystem.
- markusw 1y agoYou can easily do consistent backup on live databases. There’s a backup command and API.
