Are you talking about a shutdown database, or one started?
(After shutdown) why can I ".zip" the database files on
Netware3, move them around (copy to DAT, CD, backup directories,
etc., then restore them (potentially in another location),
and successfully run the database after?
As far as I recall, the db files work "independent" of the
low level allocation details of the OS I/O system.
I would guess running defrag while db is started is a bad
idea, but if db is shutdown, should be no problem. I'll
(try to) log an iTAR through the NT CSI I have if it is of
sufficient interest.
regards,
ep
