Hi Geoffroy,
Very true, restore depends on the kind of backup we do. I was just wondering
if mysql has any option to restore just one database from the mysqldump
having all the database.
So, as of now mysql does not provided option to just restore just one
database from dump having all database..Right?
regards
anandkl
