OpenEdge Management and OpenEdge Explorer: Configuration

Configuring an OpenEdge Replication-enabled database
• Full on-line and off-line backup arguments — The arguments required for the full
online and offline backups that are performed for the database. At a minimum, the
target file or device must be specified in these arguments for both online and offline
backups.
To avoid overwriting a backup, do not use the same target file or device for both the
backup and the incremental backup.
Do not use backup validation parameters (such as -vp and -vf).
The arguments should begin with device-name.
• Incremental backup arguments — The arguments required for the offline
incremental backup performed after AI is enabled and the database’s role is reversed.
The arguments should begin with device-name.
