&#13;
to get a consistent backup I want to stop the hfsql service at the start of the backup. And start it again afterwards.&#13;
&#13;
I can do that using a NET STOP hfsql-service-name. Does anyone know if that shuts down the service in a clean way. I mean if the hfsql service has some data in cache will that be written at that time?&#13;
I also can write a smapp utility using the HStopServer() and HStartServer() functions if that would be better.&#13;
&#13;
In the past I did a backup without shutting down the hfsql-service. Just copying the (in-use) files on the file system level. This resulted at least one time in a large MMO file being incomplete. So I'm looking for a 100% reliable backup.&#13;
&#13;
I also know the hfsql can do a backup. But this is very slooow, looks like it does this record-by-record, instead of going in some state of backup-mode like sqlserver and Oracle to be avble to do a file-copy</description><ttl>30</ttl><generator>WEBDEV</generator><language>en_US</language><link>https://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/64473-start-stop-hfsql-server/read.awp</link><title>start/stop hfsql server</title><managingEditor>moderateur@pcsoft.fr (El moderador)</managingEditor><webMaster>webmaster@pcsoft.fr (El webmaster)</webMaster><item><author>guest</author><category>pcsoft.us.windev</category><comments>https://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/64473-start-stop-hfsql-server-64477/read.awp</comments><pubDate>8 Feb 2018 14:09:00 Z</pubDate><description>For services (creation, deletion, configuration, querying) I tend to use the SC command...&#13;
