In an older mail to this list (2010-10-01 09:28) Norman Dunbar wrote:

So does the absence of that line in the output say "gfix was not used, so no
information" or does is say "forced writes is off" ?


My problem: This database is part of one of our products and I need to be
sure, it always works in forced writes mode.
I always thought it would, but now I want to be sure.

Your statement above indicated, we are wrong, but what now?

Can we "simply" run " gfix -user sysdba -pass XYZ -write sync
/path/to/database.fdb" ?

What about backups? If they are restored, do we need to run that command
again?
