Copy a database from a remote server to a local computer

ssh user@server
cd platform/config/web/
mysqldump -u root cust_server_prodction > dump.sql
exit
scp user@server:platform/config/web/dump.sql ~/
mysql -u root cust_server_prodction < dump.sql

To be prompted for the password use mysqldump -u root -p db_name > dump.sql

You may need to create the database locally before importing into it with the following

mysql -u root
create database cust_server_prodction;
show databases;
exit
