what i'm trying to do is simple nbackup backup and restore:

nbackup -U sysdba -P masterkey -B 0 database.fdb database.nbk
nbackup -U sysdba -P masterkey -R databasecopy.fdb database.nbk

Now, the OIT in databasecopy.fdb is stuck.
I'm not doing filesystem copy, so AFAIK, locking and unlocking isn't necessary, probably even not possible.
