How do I split the output from mysqldump into smaller files?

Question

I need to move entire tables from one MySQL database to another. I don\'t have full access to the second one, only phpMyAdmin access. I can only upload (compressed) sql file

Answer 1

You can dump individual tables with mysqldump by running mysqldump database table1 table2 ... tableN

If none of the tables are too large, that will be enough. Otherwise, you'll have to start splitting the data in the larger tables.
