Is there a way to have myisamchk log to a file?
Why would I want to do a thing susch as this? Well I am forced to use a vpn connection. This connection has the irritating habit of dropping off. On a big table this usually happen right before my command is finished.
I tried myisamchk -r -q tablename > ~johnb/logrestore.txt 2>&1 & and use a tail -f to monitor it ( if the connection drops I would just log in again and continue monitoring) but the text file doesn't get logged to (it does get created though). Anyway around this?
