shouldn't touch the database file in any way whatsoever.
To make a copy/move, you need to first make sure ALL connections to it
are closed and that noone can open a new connection during the
copy/move. Best would be to stop the Firebird services/daemons
(depending on SS/CS/SC).
Once you're certain there's no connection and no risk of new
connections, you can copy/move the database file like any other file.
Then it should work to just open everything for regular use at the new
location, assuming the new computer has the same Firebird server version
installed, or a newer one. I.e. a newer Firebird server version supports
database files from older servers, but not vice versa.
A less error prone way to do this might be a backup (gbak) at the
original location and a restore (also gbak) at the new location. With
that approach you don't have to worry about server versions and/or
active connections.
