I could be completely misunderstanding your comment ...execute a login

Has the issue on Windows been resolved? Our customers reported that UniData
maintained 'open files' at a dbpause, which still made the backup difficult
with a dbpause.

Dbpause doesn't close files. It blocks updates by UniData processes to
UniData files. This is via a flag

You've restored from backups where files were locked during the backup?

It's dependent on the software in use -- we have customers who want to use
what they've always used as backup software, and many of the products they
have been using will not back up 'open' files. So they end up skipping our
primary datafile

Hey -- this was a question I got though: Is there a way to make UniData

Does that question come up to other people as they transition users to U2?

WELL... in theory UniData has SOME control --
I mean, on Windows, there could be a dbpause 'flag' that tells UniData to close
all the open file handles on dbpause and reopen them on dbresume.
That would fix

I would not envision having every active UniData process on the system close
all of their files when a dbpause command is run. Each process has it's own

You have to write a script that logs
the phantoms you want to
start. So when that user logs in, the phantoms start.

You get an extra benefit from stopud and startud in that your database will be
consistent.
dbpause does not enforce consistency
Personally I would never suggest using dbpause to take a snapshot because of
that issue.

If you have put transaction processing semantics in your code you will have
logical consistency with dbpause. For RFS enabled systems, dbpause forces a
checkpoint.
