I always:
                DISCONNECT
                SET MULTI OFF
                CONNECT {dbname}

If there are NO errors (if I CAN connect) then we are good to go with a backup.

Also, I stop any web services connecting through Oterro – this seems to have a 
persistent connection, as well.

Subject: Re: [RBASE-L] - CVAL CONNECTIONS

What I've noticed (within my non-network-understanding limits) is that the 
connections don't necessarily decrease when they exit RBase, but rather when 
they log out of the network.  It seems the network thinks they have RBase 
connections still open, but not RBase itself.

Hello, group:

i am using cval('connections') in a backup routine to test and insure that all 
users are out of the system before starting the backup.

Some of my users appear to have more connections than they have computers.
One user who has 1 three user network had 26 connections.  Does the connections 
get reduced as each user exits ?


Just wondering what most of you are using to insure that all users are out of 
the database before performing a backup.

Any enlightenment would be helpful.

Thanks,  jim
