We can take a mysql dump of any particular table with any given condition like below  mysqldump -uusername -p -hhost databasename tablename --skip-lock-tables   If we want to add a specific where condition on table then we can use the following command  mysqldump -uusername -p -hhost databasename tablename --where  date 20140501  --skip-lock-tables
