so is the new Data.fs.index regenerated when Zope is restarted? ps - i've migrated Data.fs successfully and repeatedly between a netbsd 2.0 install a linux server with no issues. (and i didn't copy the .index file, only the Data.fs) tariq -----Original Message----- From: Tim Peters [mailto:tim.peters@gmail.com] Sent: 14 January 2005 14:41 To: zope@zope.org Subject: Re: [Zope] Copying Data.fs [John Poltorak]
Would there be any problem in copying Data.fs from one system to another and being able to use it?
You can even move it across operating systems (the FileStorage format is platform-independent). You take a small risk if you try to copy a Data.fs *while* it's in active use, because it's in a temporarily non-sane state during the time a transaction is being committed.
