If you run mysql then back up databases as Arnold
suggests.
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.
