• Several Questions

    By Joerg Bingemer 2 decades ago

    Hi,



    I just started using the tool some minutes ago. I have several smaller questions :)


    1. First, what does this mean ? "Not recoverable", why am I creating a backup file that is not recoverable ?

      kNBack: Starting backup of Aktion.nsf…

      kNBack: Database Aktion.nsf does not have transactional log

      kNBack: Resulting backup file will not be recoverable


    2. When I configure the backup for backup up \ as source (only NSF), will this be done recursive ?


    3. Is the tool always backup up the full file ?


    4. Will there be a linux version ? (Could test with a domino 8 beta2 server on linux)



      Joerg



      PS: Did I mention that the tool is great :)

      1. You must have transaction logging enabled on the server, otherwise if the database is used during the backup the backup version of the file may be corrupted.


      2. Should be… if you choose to include them.


      3. Yes


      4. There may be one on it's way - watch this space!

      • Linux version

        By Marc-Andre Courtois 2 decades ago

        Linux version should be up really soon. I just need to fix a few details and I'll try to post it here if I figure out how.



        The sources are the same for Win32 and Linux.. I tried as much as possible to avoid using OS specific functions. I also added a check when the addon loads up to see if the transaction logging is enabled on the server. If not it will exit immediately instead of going through all the database.



        However, I may have broken some stuff for paths with unicode characters so that will require some more testing.
