>From my experience using cmuExport/cmuImport - it doesn't do a thing for the MySQL databases.  I've always had to backup/restore those manually, outside the CMU process.  Admittedly, I haven't had to use CMU in the last 12 months or so.  But before that - I got a LOT of experience with CMU.

So simply restore the database dump to a different database name on the new server.  Dump the database on the old server to a file like "site3_db.dump".  Copy that to the new server and use something like "cat site3_db.dump | mysql -u root -p newdatabasename".  Provide the root MySQL password and a name for that moved site's database - and you're all set.  No damage to the current site3's database.

P.S. - You might have to create that new database before restoring the dump to it.  I don't remember.  But that's easily done.  Just create the empty database first - either at the command line or in phpMyAdmin.
