Hi!
I run Firebird version "HU-V6.2.972 Firebird 1.0.3" on a HP-UX
server.
I have a 3 Gb. multi-file database (file.gdb, file.gd1) that I want
to restore onto another path on disk so I can verify its
fonctionnality without compromising the original database:
. assures that no process/users is connected to the database and put
the database offline
. gbak -b original_path/file.gdb backup_path/file.gbak
. gbak -c backup_path/file.gbak restore_path/file.gdb 500000
restore_path/file.gd1
After verifying the integrity of the restored database, I want to
copy it back in the original path. As I understand, the path of the
restore_path database second file is stored in the database itself.
How can I copy the two files to the original path with the secondary
file pointing the the original_path ?
Thanks!
