Backup

Hi All,

Just following on with Cube/Dimension Backup thread I would like to confirm that restarting the Palo Service will force a writeback to the database.

I am scheduling a restart of the Palo service using a Windows Scheduled task and this is to be executed prior to the daily server backups taking place.

Any other suggestions would be welcome!

Thanks

Graeme

RE: Backup

Hello Skyzal,

Via command line interface you can start and stop the Palo Server Service with
"net start paloserverservice" and "net stop paloserverservice" and write
your own batch script including copying your database to another folder.

Regards,
Stephanie

Hello Stephanie,

since we using a skript that stores our data every evening we have some trouble with losing data partially .

We use net stop & net start PALOServerService but it seems to be that not all data is stored. For example in our case the hole data of the year 2008 is missing but data of 2005 to 2007 is looking good.

We will try to force the saving by /cube/save & /database/save but it is not that simple we thougt because you need to skript a little bit more while you cannot save the whole data with one command. But now while reading in the forum i am wondering because you said that the server will save everything automatically. So maybe we have another problem...

You have some hints for us?

Thx a lot
rob
