Support for Percona XtraBackup Utility
NetBackup now supports backups using the Percona XtraBackup utility. XtraBackup is an open-source hot backup tool for MySQL-based servers, including InnoDB and XtraDB databases. It enables non-blocking backups, ensuring that the database remains fully available during maintenance windows.
This enhancement is designed to support both high-throughput production environments and low-transaction-volume servers without impacting performance.
