John, Possibly, but under normal circumstances there might be one request. This is a small database and backup runs quick. There is a remote monitoring system that sends a web request every 3 minutes. The page simply responds with the current time although it might get that time from the server

Are there database requests coming in via the web server at the time of the backup? Have you tried turning off the web server during backup? Or at least return an error response if access to the database is needed when backup is running. John DeSoi, Ph.D. > On Nov 14, 2017, at 8:40 AM, Perkins
