This is true, but may be you need to pay attention about online backup
of mysql files.
I'm not sure, but if you backup files of a running mysql database, the
restore of these backups may fails.

I read about mysql backup tecniques using cron to create a mysql backup
(using mysql internal commands:mysqldump and mysqlhotcopy) and then
backup the resulting offline files.
