Dear all,
is there any procedure instead of the backup procedure in the Servermanager? I would like to make a (daily) sheduled backup at night. Is it possible to make any scripting? Any experiences?
Best regards,
Jens
Automatic Backup Procedure for the Database
Re: Automatic Backup Procedure for the Database
yes of course.
You can use the Firebird Backup utility "gbak" to backup and restore the database on the command line.
Assuming you installed EPOline in c:\epoline3\ the command line would be
c:\epoline3\Firebird-1.5.3.4870\bin\gbak -v -t -y c:\backup.log -user SYSDBA -password masterkey c:\epoline3\eOLFI.gdb c:\backup.fbk
Also remember to backup c:\epoline3\eolfdi.gdb .
If you take a binary peek at the files in c:\epoline3\e3tools\e3SManager\ you can see that the .bk-files the E3manager creates are the same.
