After you issue the dbpause, drop to aix as root and do a few sync commands, thusly: # sync cr # sync cr # sync cr I usually give it a few seconds in between issuing the commands, but when I script it, it's sync; sync; sync, so there's probably no reason to wait in between. This flushes all

I tried suspend the other day and was surprised to find that if you suspended the database while a lock was present it preserved the lock making it stop a copy waiting for the lock to be released. This is on UV 10.1.12. So I'm not surprised that it could cause other problems. You need to get

Louie, After you suspend the database, you need to do an AIX sync in order to flush any writes that are still sitting in memory. That resolved a similar issue for us. HTH Brian -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Louie Bergsagel Sent:

If business data integrity is a major concern, then you also need to ensure you business processing is complete and (ideally) - shutdown the UniVerse environment prior to any manipulation of UV database files using third-party/OS tools (rm, cp, rcp, scp, mv, tar, etc, etc). For high-availability
