Daniel John Debrunner commented on DERBY-239:
---------------------------------------------

Is the functional spec updated to reflect the new names of the procedures?
I'm actually confused as to why the name now includes NOWAIT, not sure what the 
NOWAIT is meant to imply to the user of the procedures. To me it might seem 
that this would imply the procedure returns right away and the backup continues 
in the background. Hopefully an updated functional spec will make it clear why 
NOWAIT is part of the name. For Derby to be easy to use the names of the system 
procedures should clearly indicate what they do.

> Currently Derby allows users to perfoms  online backups using 
> SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_BACKUP_DATABASE() procedure,  but while the backup is in 
> progress, update operations are temporarily blocked, but read operations can 
> still proceed.
> Blocking update operations can be real issue specifically in client server 
> environments, because user requests will be blocked for a long time if a 
> backup is in the progress on the server.
