Afternoon Sudheer, > What causes gbak to ask for volume 2 number disk? http://www.firebirdfaq.org/faq188/
It would appear that your backup file was found to be incomplete, unfortunately, and gbak is asking for the remainder of the backup. > I am using Firebird-2.5.4.26856_0_Win32 on Windows 7. The following > command line is used for taking the backup. > > gbak -t -v -b -user SYSDBA -password masterkey accounts.fdb J:\accounts.fbk > > 'J:\' is flash drive here. Was your backup to the flash drive successful? Or did it run out of space?
