[RBASE-L] - RE: Hourly Backups

[Brad Davidson]

Dan,

 

We’ve been successfully backing up, zipping and copying our DB to a NAS
device every operating hour (9) for the past 2 ½ years, with only an
occaissional issue (non-RBase related). 

 

As we are a 2 shift shop, during the off time we do a pack, autochk and
re-load/rebuild of the DB and then FTP it to our web server maintenance
folder, every early am.

 

If you would like to look at the code I’ll send it to you under separate
email/attachment.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Hourly Backups

 





After loosing a day last week and having to revert to yesterdays data (only
for a while thank God)  


I was wondering if anyone has ideas on hourly backup routines?  

I ran an import which went awry, and R:base allowed itself to grow past the
2 gig limit making the whole database unusable.

Is anyone using a backup procedure that would allow you to be up to the
hour?

Thanks in advance.
