[google-cloud-sql-discuss] Export and database availability

Hi guys,

I'm trying to create a read replicate in another org/project, therefore it's looking like an external replica. When creating it, it's asking me to restore from an export in Cloud Storage, so I went to create the export in the original instance, and I get this warning:

I just want to clarify what this means "you will not be able to perform operations on your instance". Does that include SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE? Or just higher level Google API operations on the instance? If the database will be unavailable, I need a better estimate of how long it will take, too. My database is 235 Gb in size.

Thanks,
