Optigold Backup CMD Files?

Discussion in 'Optigold ISP' started by davet, Jul 12, 2004.

    Does anyone have an example of the .cmd files they use to pause and backup Optigold when using Filemaker Server 5?

    Below is what my CMD file looks like but am not sure if it is pausing the databse correctly. How can I assure that the database is being paused correctly?



    if not exist c:\FMBackup goto create
    rmdir /s /q c:\FMBackup

    :create
    mkdir c:\FMBackup
    "C:\Program Files\FileMaker\FileMaker Server 5\Fmserver.exe" pause
    xcopy "C:\Program Files\FileMaker\FileMaker Server 5\Optigold\*" /s c:\FMBackup
    "C:\Program Files\FileMaker\FileMaker Server 5\Fmserver.exe" resume





    if not exist c:\Backup\Optigold\Backup0600 goto create2
    rmdir /s /q c:\Backup\Optigold\Backup0600

    :create2
    mkdir c:\Backup\Optigold\Backup0600\
    xcopy c:\FMBackup\*.* /s c:\Backup\Optigold\Backup0600\


    if not exist d:\Backup\Optigold\Backup0600 goto create3
    rmdir /s /q d:\Backup\Optigold\Backup0600

    :create3
    mkdir d:\Backup\Optigold\Backup0600\
    xcopy c:\FMBackup\*.* /s d:\Backup\Optigold\Backup0600\

    Why not just use the backup scheduler that is built into FileMaker Server?

    it would be really very hard to do it manually, you should use backup scheduler for CMD backup files...
