I think I see now how it works. ;-) Using: install_super.bat FB_300_x64 I get the following executable path for the Windows service: "C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_300_4051\firebird.exe" -s FB_300_x64 -m Using: install_classic.bat FB_300_x64 I get the following executable path for the Windows service: "C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_300_4051\firebird.exe" -s FB_300_x64 => Does that mean: We have a single executable in Firebird 3. When -m is used, this means a single server process and the SharedCache, SharedDatabase parameters controll whether it's SS or SC. When -m is not used, then it's one process per connection thus CS. Is this correct?
