Subject Change Write Mode
Author Tiziano
Hello, I have a db created with an old firebird version (I don't know which version is, I suppose 1.5) and Force Write parameter is OFF. So i created a scheduled batch (during night) to change write mode:

"%FB_PATH%\GSTAT.EXE" -h %DB1% >> %LOG_FILE%
"%FB_PATH%\GFIX.EXE" -shut full -force 0 -user SYSDBA -password masterkey %DB1% >> %LOG_FILE%
"%FB_PATH%\GFIX.EXE" -write sync -user SYSDBA -password masterkey %DB1% >> %LOG_FILE%
"%FB_PATH%\GFIX.EXE" -online normal -user SYSDBA -password masterkey %DB1% >> %LOG_FILE%
"%FB_PATH%\GSTAT.EXE" -h %DB1% >> %LOG_FILE%

%DB1% => <ip>:<path + file name>

But Write Mode don't change and this is the log:

Database "<path + file name>"
