A general question about the idea of "streaming" fbk file to a remote
server for restore.
There would need to be a proper protocol to handle the stream, no?
It would be impossible to send the fbk in a single operation, so sending the
fbk in blocks would be required.
Yes, certainly - exactly like it works now.
To be clear, you are saying that I can stream a 30GB fbk file to a remote
server?
Yes.
I am familiar with 'piping' a local backup process into a local restore process.
What would the gbak command look like to stream the fbk to a remote restore?
Unfortunately no support in gbak - only in fbsvcmgr, see in
README.services_extension "running gbak at server side with .fbk at the
client".
