Hello Nikolaus,

dbmcli -d ... -u ...,... db_offline
dbmcli -d ... -u ...,... db_online

please be aware, that you have to make log backups anyway to lose as less changes 
happening after the file system backup as possible.

Best Regards,

That is not what I need, I just look for the utility that lets me
shutdown/restart the Database from a batch file [0]  and if the data
files can be backed up and restored savely if the database engine is
not  running.

I have already set up a database on the server, the tutorial has
been a great help.

read: NO GUI whatsoever, just like the picture in the "Sap DB:
Reducing TCO for Data Management" paper: the database is just a
black box with an on/off switch (two icons leading to two batch
files) and people who want to restore the database just have to know
 a) where to find the "on/off switch"  icons
 b) about the file backup program

I intend to install/tune/configure everything using
GUI/CLI/documentation and then leave the Database to a company with
people who don't really care how it works as long as it works and
bug me if it doesnt work.
