You need to either dump the database from within the engine or quiesce the database before making a snapshot of the underlying file system. > I'm not familiar with MongoDB, but I would be surprised if it didn't have a > similar option to dump its data to a text file. Be surprised. MongoDB lacks the tools to do full text dumps. It has a limited export function which is useless for production backups because it can't export everything and a dump function that dumps to a binary format. -- Rich P.
