Why do you need services manager when working in embedded mode? To be precise - please describe exactly what do you want from services, and I hope to be able to help you doing it. A. PS. Though Ann's suggestion seem to be much better, I'm afraid at least in nearest release you will have to use gbak. Is it possible to store both DB and gbak in order to avoid restore when endianess is the same? IMHO it's at least 99.99% of usage. PPS. For small databases gbak file is many times smaller than appropriate fdb (a lot of almost empty pages for system relations are not stored), therefore probably an option speed/size can be useful. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.
