The only reliable method of backing up and restoring a database is with shell access via telnet or ssh. This is because backing up with a PHP script like that in the Admin CP or phpMyAdmin can result in PHP timeouts errors and an incomplete backup file. Please see the instructions here:

Backup:

Restore:

P.S. If you don't have shell access, some people have also reported success with these scripts:

MySQLDumper:

You should be able to load those files with any of hte methods mentioned by Dismounted.

You will need to process ALL these files or merge them together into 1 big file.
