Sure, that's why we also have to update tables.sql (sometimes) to load the data back to the server :) .
2) Our databases are spread over dozens of servers, in mixes of internal binary compression formats whose interpretation is dependent on our configuration and custom code.
3) Our internal databases mix public and private information, which we have to separate for external dumps. Thus only completely public tables are dumped with mysqldump.
That makes sense, Brion. Thank you for this clarification.
Regards,
Felipe.
