Enquiry on Database Checksum

    Hello BackWPUp and Others,

    May I know is it possible to generate database checksum during database backup?

    e.g.
    SQL: checksum table wp_posts;

    (Or is there any hook we can use to make a plugin and generate the checksum before backup?)

    As files inside zip/tar.gz are already checksumed.
    However, for db, it seems it does not have checksum.

    Checksum ensures the db transfer are correct.
    (although some tables, e.g. wp_options, are always changing)

    Thank you very much for your kind attention.

    Regards
    George

    Hi @ccto,
    BackWPUp already have Check database tables function, you can find it in BackWPUp -> Jobs -> [your job ] -> General tab -> Job Tasks

    And for more detail on backup process, you can enable Debug log:
    Go to BackWPup > Settings > Logs and set Logging Level to Debug (not translated).

    Hope that helps ??

    Hello duongcuong96

    Thanks for your reply.

    I mean checksum table (to check data transfer correctness), instead of check table for healthiness.

    Thank you
    Regards
    ccto.
