Optimistic phase: In this first phase, tables that are unlikely to be modified during the backup process (referred to as the “inactive tables” below, identified by the user with the optimistic-time option or, by exclusion, with the optimistic-busy-tables option) are backed up without locking the MySQL instance. And because those tables are not expected to be changed before the backup is finished, redo logs, undo logs, and system table spaces are not backed up by mysqlbackup in this phase.
