Subject RE: [IB-Architect] Database Backup
Author Gerhardus Geldenhuis
Hi
Firstly read the documentation.
Its readily available and fairly easy to understand.
The specific volume would be the Operations Guide

Secondly this is the wrong list rather ask at
ib-support@yahoogroups.com

Thirdly here is my typical backup string.
gbak -b -t -v -user sysdba -pas masterkey D:\LocalDB\BodyTrak3.fdb
D:\LocalDB\Backup\BodyTrak3.gbk

I am not sure what each switch does, you will find that in the
documentation.

This backup creates a transportable database with garbage collection.
