Backup procedures in Amethyst 1.4

[Belinda Frick]

Windows
The sweeper writes a change.log file into the same
directory as the executable file. This file contains
the location and the reference number of the recording
and screen shot files,
eg. c:\exclusive\20040310\94_07d465ffcd47.

The client needs to get or use their current backup
procedures for amethyst. The backup program needs to
make a copy of the files in the change.log file.
Select everything with the reference number
eg.c:\exclusive\20040310\94_07d465ffcd47*.*.

They must also make a backup of the database with gbak.
Example:
set ISC_USER=SYSDBA
set ISC_PASSWORD=masterkey
PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_1_5\bin
gbak -b -v "C:\Program Files\Datatex\Amethyst\Data\amt.fdb" "E:Backup1\amt.fbk"

Linux
The sweeper writes a change.log file into the same directory as the executable file.
This file contains the location and the reference number of the recording
and screen shot file. eg. c:\exclusive\20040310\94_07d465ffcd47.
There is a script available from Datatex that does the backup of the database
and copies the recordings and screen shots to the backup drive.
