After some off list discussion and testing here's the summary: the scenario that Markus describes was true for older versions of MaxDB / SapDB. MaxDB 7.5 at least is installed as service (listener and instance) and is shut down properly on system shutdown. So actually my customer was wrong. Markus, thanks again for helping to sort this out! robert -- Have a look: http://www.flickr.com/photos/fussel-foto/ -- MaxDB Discussion Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/maxdb To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
