partial backup includes ibdata1 big file

Asked by djay45

Hello,

When I operate a partial backup one one database (or few tables), xtrabackup includes the ibdata1 (460Mo) in the backup whereas the database folder size is to 140ko.

Is it necessary to keep ibdata1 in the backup ? (in particular for preparing backup). I restore after individual tables ( via discard, import).

Is there an option to not take into account that file in the partial backup?

Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Jérémy
