Run this command as any
user which also shows the status of the DB-PAUSE command
Note: This utility is only available in jBASE 4.1 and later.
For example
# DB-STATUS
Database paused at Mon Nov 25 16:00:50 2002
For READ and WRITE operations
Updates are denied also to root users
Transactions will be blocked immediately
The -a option
specifies that all databases should be shut down (Note: This option is
restricted to jBASE 5)
The
-n option specifies the database to shut down
(Note: This option is
restricted to jBASE 5)
Use the -t option
to display users currently inside a transaction.
The -v option is
the verbose option.
Use the -w option
to display all users currently suspended and waiting for a DB-RESUME.
The -V option is
the very verbose option and is the equivalent of -t, -v and -w together.
# DB-STATUS -V
DatajBASE paused at Mon Nov 25 16:13:36 2002
For READ and WRITE operations
Updates are denied also to root users
Existing transactions can continue until complete
Port 4 is waiting for DB-RESUME
Port 23 is waiting for DB-RESUME
Port 31 is inside a transaction
1 ports inside a transaction, 2 ports waiting for
DB-RESUME
One common usage of
these commands will be to split mirrors on a mirrored disk system. One of the
mirrors can then continue a jBASE operation following a DB-RESUME and the other
mirror, which is now quiescent, used for a fast backup using operating system
specific backup tools.
