Version 1.8.0-community

Getting Started

Install GoArchive and run your first archive job.

Two short pages take you from nothing to a completed archive job.

Installation covers building the binary and confirming it runs.

Quick Start builds a configuration file, inspects what the job would do, and runs it.

Before you begin, make sure you have:

  • A source MySQL server, version 8.0 or later, with the data you want to move
  • A destination MySQL server, with the same tables already created
  • An account on each server with the privileges described in Database Connections
