On the x86 Server

Download, install, and verify Percona XtraBackup on the x86 server to ensure that Percona XtraBackup can run properly.

• The latest version of Percona XtraBackup is 8.0.35. It supports MySQL data backup and restoration for MySQL 8.0.34 to 8.0.36. For details about the Percona XtraBackup version compatibility, see https://docs.percona.com/percona-xtrabackup/8.0/.
• Generally, it is recommended that the Percona XtraBackup version be equal to or later than the MySQL version to ensure the compatibility and reliability of data backup and restoration. Owing to the Percona XtraBackup's compatibility with MySQL, this document can still use Percona XtraBackup 8.0.35 to successfully support MySQL 8.0.36 data operations.

1. Download the executable file package of Percona XtraBackup.

   cd /home
   wget https://downloads.percona.com/downloads/Percona-XtraBackup-8.0/Percona-XtraBackup-8.0.35-30/binary/tarball/percona-xtrabackup-8.0.35-30-Linux-x86_64.glibc2.17.tar.gz --no-check-certificate

2. Decompress the package to the current directory. In this example, the current directory is /home.

   tar -zxvf percona-xtrabackup-8.0.35-30-Linux-x86_64.glibc2.17.tar.gz

   After the decompression, a new directory (percona-xtrabackup-8.0.35-30-Linux-x86_64.glibc2.17) is created in /home. The new directory contains all files and directories of Percona XtraBackup. The executable file of Percona XtraBackup is stored in the /home/percona-xtrabackup-8.0.35-30-Linux-x86_64.glibc2.17/bin directory.

3. Verify that Percona XtraBackup is successfully installed and available.

   Go to the directory where the executable file is stored and run ./xtrabackup -version.

   cd /home/percona-xtrabackup-8.0.35-30-Linux-x86_64.glibc2.17/bin
   ./xtrabackup -version

   If the Percona XtraBackup version information is displayed, Percona XtraBackup is successfully installed.
