Hello, I recently installed sapdb on a Windows NT Server 4.0 box, which already has a MS Sqlserver (which came with the KHK finance software and might be replaced with a newer version any time the vendor thinks this is a good idea) running on it.
At about 1am each morning the MS Sqlserver is shut down by a batch file that is started by the backup software, when the SQL server no longer locks its files all files, binaries as well as data files are backed up and at about 2 am, when everything is backed up the SQL server is restarted. Sapdb may have nice enterprise features like backuping the entire database while it is being used, but I only need a very easily restored database (without using any magic commands, just point-and-drool) that can be recovered by anyone being able to handle the backup software. I would like to know how I can start/stop the Sapdb instances on the Windows NT box and if the database will function if all of the files (binary files as well as data files) are simply put where they once were. Thanks in advane, Nikolaus Wagner _______________________________________________ sapdb.general mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listserv.sap.com/mailman/listinfo/sapdb.general
