To backup a database, if your database supports backup mode, put it into backup mode, back it up and then take it out of backup mode using a scheduler. James should be oblivious and will continue to function. You generally need a database targetted at 24*7 operations to get this facility. That isn't to say that others do not have it, investigate your preferred solution. If your preferred database does not support backup mode, you will have to stop or pause the services which access the database, back it up and then resume the previously stopped or paused services using a scheduler. The later option is not pretty, as it requires taking James services such as SMTP and POP3 offline for a period. In this light, you could read this as if you need 24*7 James service you need a 24*7 database. Make your choice wisely. -- Steve --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
