Hi,

I would probably not use the auto-server mode in production. Instead, I
suggest to use the embedded mode, plus (to be able to connect while your
application is running), start the H2 TCP server.

> when its impossible to connect from external in mixed mode

Well it is possible. If the database file is accessible externally. H2
doesn't know that. Possible, but not recommended.

I wouldn't do that. In the past, I had quite big problems using NFS. In
theory, it's possible, but I would try to avoid it.

Regards,
Thomas
