We are trying to automate the startup process for getting replication running, and the docs are really unclear on if the slave database *instance* can be running whilst the datafile copy is done, or if it is just necessary to shut down the *database* that is being replicated on the slave.
Sorry, that wasn't entirely clear. The question is which of these two scenarios is correct:
1. Slave Derby server instance running 2. Database to be replicated is closed on the slave 3. Database data files copied from the master 3. Slave database reopened or 1. Slave Derby server instance shut down 3. Database data files copied from the master 3. Slave Derby server instance restarted 4. Slave database reopened -- Alan Burlison --
