How to backup and restore all dbs in influxdb ver 1.4.2

1

I was testing full server backups in influxdb 1.4.2 and it seems that does not work !
output!

$ /usr/bin/influxd backup /opt/influxdb/backups/15Jun2018
2018/06/15 17:24:42 backing up metastore to /opt/influxdb/backups/15Jun2018/meta.00
2018/06/15 17:24:42 backup complete

We were all these time backing up individual databases. ( 3 in total )

So whats the best way to recover all the databases from backups

Any help appreciated.

Hi ,
you can use the -portable flag starting in version 1.5 to backup all databases
