I'm Looking at performing backups of the binary logs. The MariaDB<https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/mysqlbinlog-options/> mysqlbinlog lags behind the MySQL<https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/mysqlbinlog-options/> version in the sense it's missing a few features. Namely the ability to 'tail' a live binary log... mysqlbinlog --read-from-remote-server --host=host_name --raw --stop-never binlog.000999 I haven't fully tested this but running the MySQL version against MariaDB doesn't appear viable. I'm probably going to fall back to a FLUSH LOGS / file copy solution for the moment. What would be the chances of back-porting these features into the MariaDB version?
