This produces an export.bbe file which is essentially the same thing as your database (only it is already compressed). Now, if I could get that to be automated.. Perhaps in ZServer.. Interesting thought..
We're running Zope on an NT server here and the backup system (Arcserve) apparently gives an error when it tries to backup Zope's 'var' directory. I would like to have this succeed (and end up with a non corrupted database, of course :), so here are some questions:
* is this perhaps fixed by Zope 1.10? I read something about Zope 1.9 not doing proper file locking on NT yet, so there is some difference here.
* Is copying a database while Zope is running a good strategy? (probably not)
* What other options are there? For instance, NT seems to be able to copy the var dir just fine, so perhaps a copy could be made that Arcserve could backup. Still, that database would be backuped while Zope is running, so perhaps this isn't a good idea.
Thanks in advance,
Martijn
