A few questions and help regarding SQL/upgrades whilst being away
#1
Hello there friends.

So my wife and I are going travelling on Saturday for up to a year. We're both very excited however until we board the plane home life is making me nervous.
I've taken my Synology NAS to my folks house, set them up with two PI's and a NUC all running Gotham 13.1. I'm running MySQL DB.

My question is what I should I be doing whilst I'm away?
All three machines are set to auto update so I have no fears about moving to Helix and maybe even whatever Kodi 15 is.
I was planning on backing up the MySQL DB, deleting it from PHPAdmin and creating a fresh one for them then restoring it when I'm back however I get the impression the DB is likely to get updated during the next incarnation of Kodi and thus I'll be unable to bring it back.

Any suggestions? I've seen two methods of multi-sql DB's,

and

This a good route to down or is there a better way?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

Backup your MySQL DB and then restore it when you get back. XBMC/Kodi, regardless of version, should be able to identify an old database and update it to a newer version just fine.
