- If you want to just dump the CREATE TABLE statements without any data, use the
�no-data option.
 # mysqldump -u<USER_Name> -p<Password> --no-data database_name >
db_definitions_dump.sql

- You might want to add the �routines and �events options to include stored
routines and event definitions.

# mysqldump -u<USER_Name> -p<Password> --no-data --routines --events

database_name > db_definitions_dump.sql

Only dump the data:
