Perhaps MON$DATABASE is delivering with the MON$BACKUP_STATE field?

Hi Hugo,

In HQbird, we monitor size and age of delta files.
If it is bigger or older than appropriate size/age (like 500Mb/6 hours, 
for example), the database is marked as critical in Control Center.
You can implement the same - the status of the database and path to 
delta file can be retrieved from the database.

Alexey Kovyazin



Hello,

Is there a way to ask a database if someone is performing a nbackup?

If it's in "the physical backup mode".

I'm always paranoid if there is a power failure during a backup and it 
gets stuck in that mode and I would like it to recover from such 
situation.

We have many hundreds of installations and it's difficult to monitor all.

Hello,

Is there a way to ask a database if someone is performing a nbackup?
 If it's in "the physical backup mode".

I'm always paranoid if there is a power failure during a backup and it gets 
stuck in that mode and I would like it to recover from such situation.
We have many hundreds of installations and it's difficult to monitor all.

[firebird-support] 32 and 64 bit on same machine

[andrewz...@yahoo.com.au [firebird-support]]

Hope I am on the right forum.

I have installed 64-bit CS (2.5.3.26780), 64-bit ODBC driver (2.0.3.154) and 
64-bit FlameRobin on a 2012 R2 server.

I can configure the server, ODBC driver and FlameRobin connection and all 
operates successfully as expected.

I installed a 32-bit client(2.5.3.26780) and 32-bit ODBC driver(2.0.3.154).

When I test the 32-bit ODBC connection it fails.

Our app is 32-bit but the client wants to interrogate the DB with a 64-bit app.

Is such a configuration possible (regardless of my old FB version) or must I 
separate?

Cheers,
Andrew.
