Hey all,
Reading about gbak I stumbled on this little bit of information:
-r[eplace_database]
Restores over an existing database. This can only be performed by
SYSDBA or the owner of the database that is overwritten. Do NOT
restore over a database that is in use! [Firebird 1.0, 1.5]
Does this mean that it is OK to restore over an existing database that
is in use if you're running Firebird 2.0.3?
And if it's not OK, how do I then best go about restoring a running
database?
Regards,
Thomas
