Hello,
I've got a MyISAM table with about 1.6 million rows. What's the best way to convert this table in a live production environment?

If I do a simple ALTER TABLE ENGINE=InnoDB, everything else that is happening gets blocked. This could take 30min to complete and we can't have things down for that long.

Are there other methods to converting to InnoDB?
