> Why would you want to prevent this? The database I am working with is not backed up during normal operation, only during testing. There is a CRC check that is done of the entire database. When I backup the database to inspect it, it fails the CRC check (presumably because the last backup time has changed).
So, either I need to find a way to avoid hotsync modifing the database or I need to find away to get the database without using hotsync.
