Hi Btrivieans!

step.
Well, we do the upgrade and a couple of weeks there were no problms. But
yesterday we observe the following:
backup-agent was started exactly at 12:30 h, several datafiles where at
this
moment not open especially a (btrieve-)file named pattest.dat.
While running PBA the datafiles are copied (with XCOPY). The copy job
lastes
until 12:36 h. Meanwhile, at 12:33 h somebody used a function of the
application
that needs pattest.dat, henceforce it was opened: in the PBA-Log appear
I 1612 04.10.2007 12:33:34 Backup Agent is now ON for this file:
"D:\project\DATS\PATTEST.DAT"
the strange thing is, that just after this at we get Error 46 on update
and
add-operations on that file pattest.dat (not on open or read).
This Error 46 comes for every update/add until 12:59(! yes 59!) although
the PBA
was OFF since 12:26 (as listed in the Log-File). The PBA is swiched off
not
before the copy-action is finished (so the copy was ready at 12:26.).
There were also other btrieve-files opened at 12:33:34, but with them no
problem
occur.
I can not explain this behavior. I guess, that at the moment of switching
PBA on
for pattest.dat (12:33:34) the copy of that file was just in progress.
But than
the error should be gone at leasat at 12:36.
But eaven if the error hat gone at 12:36 it remains the question: why
occur this
error in the first place? I thgought, that PBA will tolerate copiing of
the
originalfiles while running?
(of course *.^^^are not copied!).
As far as I know, the virusscanner is configured, so that *.dat and *.^^^
are
not scanned.
(In the PVSW.LOG file is nothing this time.)
Do you have any idea, what happens?
Sincerely
Mircea
Hallo Btrivieans!
since a couple of weeks we observe, that sometimes - not ever - PSQL
engine 8.1
stops while Backup Agent is switched off:
Backup Agent runs twice a day, 12:30 and 20:00 a clock. Many times it work
without problm, but sometimes for some reasen I dont konow, the PSQL
engine
simple stop work: here whats in the pvsw.log-file

(entries before 12:35:58 are not from 07-10-2007!)
(We have already exclude the btrieve-datafiles from virus-scanning.)
Is this phenomenon known? Will it make sense to update to 8.6 (i.e. is it
a
known issus in 8.1)?
Any hint will be welcome
