There you can set "keep_logical_logs=true" to make neo4j keep its logical (.v??) logs for online backup. However, to perform online backup there should probably be a configuration parameter in wrapper.conf which enables that I'd guess. Are you planning to do online backup to another running database or to another disk?
The shell is now also startable via a configuration parameter, so if you supply a "enable_remote_shell=true" parameter in that neo4j.properties file it will be started. Of course, you'd have to download the latest REST standalone server for all this to be working. -- Mattias Persson, [[email protected]] Hacker, Neo Technology www.neotechnology.com _______________________________________________ Neo4j mailing list [email protected] https://lists.neo4j.org/mailman/listinfo/user
