In fact, creating a backup of your databases is really simple and could be done with 2-3 commands. I found this article very useful https://www.rosehosting.com/blog/search/backup . Thanks.

I’m not sure if this would work on CentOS 7 or not, I did the upgrade on CentOS 5. From your Serverfault post it looks like the 5.5 binaries are still running on locking the files. Sorry I can’t be of more help, good luck!
