Backup and restore for views
Posted by: Martie Henry

I make extensive use of views in my database, more views than tables.
No idea how the backup is handling views, but restore restores the views as tables, with data!
This is not how it should work.
A view is basically just a stored query, certainly not a table.

Since it’s screwed up, how can I backup everything except views? Then I could restore just that.

Easy enough to save just the view definitions separately, and then to restore, execute the view definitions after everything else.

Please help. I have 267 tables and 467 views.
