Backing Up Mysql File and Restore and Backup?

| I have mysql on a dedicated server. Is this correct?
Login into mysql server
1) run commands
2) restore dbname_2.sql
Now I should have a new db caled dbname_2? Or is this wrong? I'm trying to make a forum mysql backup so that I can upgrade it. But I want to test the upgrade on a backup db first.
So basically I want to backup the original db, re-up it as another name, and then on my site with a backup forum call on that backup db to see if it's working properly and what not.
Changing the name of the db should create a new db once it's restore? Is this right?

| The command should be:
You need to create a database first:
And then grant privileges as well:
Once you have performed the above steps, restore the db like you plan to do
