Backup and Recover strategy

[Ezequiel Calderara <ez...@gmail.com>]

Hello, i just finished implementing a master with two slaves (this is a test
for now :P).

I'm trying to figure out how to do backups and restores without stopping the
service or using a "passive" slave.
Right now i'm backing up using the <str name="backupAfter">optimize</str>,
and it creates a snapshot folder for backup.
Is there any way to indicate where to backup, or some other options?

Is there any other way of doing backups without stopping the service?

Thanks all!
