Import the Data to the New Version of MySQL Database

You can import data to the new version of MySQL database.

Before you begin:
  • Make sure the new version of the MySQL database is not in use.
  • Know the name of the new database.

To import the exported data:

Enter: 
mysql -u <external_mysql_username> -p<password> <db_name> --host=<external_mysql_host> --port=<external_mysql_port> < <dump_file_name>
Where database_name is the name of the new database created in task 3 of the checklist.
