Issue with Backup (Hypersonic)

[acastaneda]

Hello,

I just recently installed OpenKM-5.1.7 on Windows 2003 SBS. So far it has been working great through testing and hopefully this will solve a lot of problems. I do have one issue and it may not even be big.

I have a backup system that runs each night (Symantec Backup Exec 2010) and I keep getting an error when it tries to backup "\server\default\data\hypersonic\localDB.lck" and "\server\default\data\hypersonic\OKM_APP.lck" . I keep getting that the files are corrupt and they cannot be verified.

Will this be a problem if I ever need to restore my files or the repository? I noticed both files are very small and wondered if I they would be needed.

Thanks.

If there's a .lck indicates the database is up. You should stop jboss, and then execute the backup, that's the idea, have a cold backup. I don't know if Symantec backup can stop services or execute some script. ( In case executing bat script it's easy to stop jboss service and after doing backup start service again). If not I don't know if symnatec backup can be executed from terminal - console - in case afirmative, you must create some backup script, that stop jboss, makes backup and then start jboss. As you can read, are several options depending the features of your backup software, but the general idea is always the same, make backup with jboss stopped.
