Hi list,
I have a third-party application which uses Firebird (v 1.5.2) for persistence. I need to move
the application to a new server, which basically means installing it on the new server and
then copying the data from the old server to the new. The two environments are the same.
How do I move the data? Can I simply shut down database A, shut down database B, copy
the .fdb file from one server to the other, then restart database B? Or are there other things I
need to consider, other files I need to worry about?
Thanks!
