Fabiano,

Incremental nbackup works with native structure of database and operates
with individual pages.
After you backup-restore using gbak the database is recreated totally
with new page structure.
So any previous nbackup's backups (sorry for tautology ;) ) will be
useless for this new DB.
You should create new nbackup chain (year-month-week-day) after gbak
circle.

Subject: [firebird-support] nbackup



I am using nbackup from level 0 to 3 (year, month, week and day,
respectively) to backup my databases.

Let's suppose i have a database called TEST.FDB, and, after run
nbackup to make a level 3 backup, i make a backup/restore using
gbak,
restoring it over the original TEST.FDB.

What happens in this case next time i run nbackup? Will it be
affected?

Regards,

Fabiano.
