+### Admin Functions
+
+GreptimeDB provides some administration functions to manage the database and data:
+
+* `flush_table(table_name)` to flush a table's memtables into SST file by table name.
+* `flush_region(region_id)` to flush a region's memtables into SST file by region id. Find the region id through [REGION_PEERS](./information-schema/region-peers.md) table.
+* `compact_table(table_name)` to schedule a compaction task for a table by table name.
+* `compact_region(region_id)` to schedule a compaction task for a region by region id.
+* `migrate_region(region_id, from_peer, to_peer, [timeout])` to migrate regions between datanodes, please read the [Region Migration](/user-guide/operations/region-migration).
+* `procedure_state(procedure_id)` to query a procedure state by its id.
+
+For example:
+```sql
+-- Flush the table test --
+select flush_table("test");
+
+-- Schedule a compaction for table test --
+select compact_table("test");

 # Back up & restore data
+
+Use [`COPY` command](/reference/sql/copy.md)to backup and restore data.
+
+## Backup Table
+
+Backup the table `monitor` in `parquet` format to the file `/home/backup/monitor/monitor.parquet`:
+
+```sql
+COPY monitor TO '/home/backup/monitor/monitor.parquet' WITH (FORMAT = 'parquet');
+```
+
+Backup the data in the time range:
+
+```sql
+COPY monitor TO '/home/backup/monitor/monitor_20240518.parquet' WITH (FORMAT = 'parquet', START_TIME='2024-05-18 00:00:00', END_TIME='2025-05-19 00:00:00');
+```
+
+The above command will export the data on `2024-05-18`. Use such command to achieve incremental backup.
+
+## Restore Table
+
+Restore the `monitor` table:
+
+```sql
+COPY monitor FROM '/home/backup/monitor/monitor.parquet' WITH (FORMAT = 'parquet');
+```
+
+If exporting the data every data incrementally, all the files under the same folder but with different file names, we can restore them with `PATTERN` option:
+
+```sql
+COPY monitor FROM '/home/backup/monitor/` WITH (FORMAT = 'parquet', PATTERN = '.*parquet')
+```
+
+## Backup & Restore Database
+
+It's almost the same as the table:
+
+```sql
+-- Backup the database public --
+COPY DATABASE public TO '/home/backup/public/' WITH (FORMAT='parquet');
+
+-- Restore the database public --
+COPY DATABASE public FROM '/home/backup/public/' WITH (FORMAT='parquet');
+```
+
+Look at the folder `/home/backup/public/`, the command exports each table as a separate file.
