Good.
Now here are some questions :
- is the binary_backup.tgz file saved at each closing time ?
No, it's saved when you pick the 'backup' option under the 'Repository' menu
or when you use the similar command line option.
- What is this weird concept of environment around the database that can be
corrupted AND impossible to recover ?
See
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/ref/env/intro.html
and chapters following.
Also see
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/ref/transapp/recovery.html
- Am I wrong If I say that :
RECOVER = restore database environment
RESTORE = restore database from backup
Not really, but you're using 'restore' differently in each sentence.
Again, see
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/ref/transapp/recovery.html
- If I want to be sure to backup my data, important files in the profile are
:
- *.db and DB* (raw data)
- binary_backup.tgz (backup to restore)
- no use to save database environement thus recover doesn't always work
and no important data in it ?
There are two ways to backup your data:
- use repository backup as outlined earlier
- export your data (this is done automatically when you quit Chandler,
normally)
A data export is not a complete repository backup but your personal data is
preserved.
Again big big thank first for you work on chandler and then to help me with
my crash problems.
I think I know better how to be sure not to lost my chandler data and that's
nice feeling.
You're welcome.
Andi..
