<p>
|
||
The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV->backup()</code> method performs a hot
|
||
backup of the open environment. All files used by the environment
|
||
are backed up, so long as the normal rules for file placement are
|
||
followed. For information on how files are normally placed relative
|
||
to the environment directory, see
|
||
<a href="../../programmer_reference/env_naming.html" class="olink">Berkeley DB File Naming</a> in the <em class="citetitle">Berkeley DB Programmer's Reference Guide</em>.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
By default, data directories and the log directory specified
|
||
relative to the home directory will be recreated relative to the
|
||
target directory. If absolute path names are used, then specify
|
||
<code class="literal">DB_BACKUP_SINGLE_DIR</code> to the <code class="literal">flags</code>
|
||
parameter.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
This method provides the same functionality as the
|
||
<a class="xref" href="db_hotbackup.html" title="db_hotbackup">db_hotbackup</a>
|
||
utility. However, this method does not perform the housekeeping
|
||
actions performed by the <code class="literal">db_hotbackup</code> utility.
|
||
In particular, you may want to run a checkpoint before calling this
|
||
method. To run a checkpoint, use the
|
||
<a class="xref" href="txncheckpoint.html" title="DB_ENV->txn_checkpoint()">DB_ENV->txn_checkpoint()</a>
|
||
method. For more information on checkpoints, see
|
||
<a href="../../programmer_reference/transapp_checkpoint.html" class="olink">Checkpoints</a> in the <em class="citetitle">Berkeley DB Programmer's Reference Guide</em>.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
To back up a single database file contained within the environment,
|
||
use the
|
||
<a class="xref" href="envdbbackup.html" title="DB_ENV->dbbackup()">DB_ENV->dbbackup()</a>
|
||
method.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
This method's default behavior can be changed by setting backup
|
||
callbacks. See
|
||
<a class="xref" href="envset_backup_callbacks.html" title="DB_ENV->set_backup_callbacks()">DB_ENV->set_backup_callbacks()</a>
|
||
for more information. Additional tuning parameters can also be set
|
||
using the
|
||
<a class="xref" href="envset_backup_config.html" title="DB_ENV->set_backup_config()">DB_ENV->set_backup_config()</a> method.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV->backup()</code> method may only be
|
||
called after the environment handle has been opened.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV->backup()</code> <span>
|
||
<span>
|
||
method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.

Identifies the directory in which the back up will be

placed. Any subdirectories required to contain the backup
|
||
must be placed relative to this directory. Note that if
|

the backup callbacks are set, then the value specified to
|

this parameter is passed on to the <code class="literal">open_func()</code>
|

callback. If this parameter is NULL, then the target must

This directory, and any required subdirectories, will be
