I would not simply copy the DB file(s) while updates might occur. A single transaction may modify many blocks across the file(s), so a copy at an unlucky moment can result in inconsistencies in the copy. You can then either 'lock' the DB, or (what I do usually) synchronize the DB permanently to a remote server (this is done via @bin/ssl locally to a @bin/replica process remotely - needs some setup though). ☺/ A!ex -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:[email protected]?subject=Unsubscribe
