I have a single Linux host server with several Virtualbox guest VM's.
I've been attempting to move everything possible from the host to one of
the guests.
One of the last holdovers is Firebird. The reason is I use NFS to mount
host folders within the guest for critical data - and the .fdb certainly
counts. My goal is to have all critical data stored on a host partition
or folder - not in guest virtual drives - which I (possibly mistakenly)
believe improves performance and recoverability.
So for my use case - I have a single Firebird server instance. There
will never be more than one copy of Firebird running. All write and
99.99% read access to the .fdb would be through that single Firebird
instance (except for automated remote backup operations running on the
host).
Am I "safe", possibly even correct, in using RemoteFileOpenAbility in
this use case?
