Hi,

We have a multi-threaded server process using a set of BDB databases .
We have a requirement to write a small utility to manage the same
databases for modifying and deleting records manually whenever it is
required.

Now I would like to know the following things:
<pre>
m_dbenv->open(m_dbenv, m_HomeDir, DB_CREATE | DB_INIT_LOCK |
DB_INIT_LOG |
DB_INIT_MPOOL |
DB_INIT_TXN |
DB_THREAD |
DB_RECOVER | DB_PRIVATE,
0);
</pre>

Re posting after format corrected:
Hi,

databases .

databases for modifying and deleting records manually whenever it is
required.

Now I would like to know the following things:

1. the changes that I have to make to the server process while
opening those BDB environments / databases.

* * *The flags currently used i the server process are
<pre>
m_dbenv->open(m_dbenv, m_HomeDir, DB_CREATE | DB_INIT_LOCK |
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * DB_INIT_LOG |
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * DB_INIT_MPOOL |
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * DB_INIT_TXN |
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * DB_THREAD |
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * DB_RECOVER | DB_PRIVATE,
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * 0);
</pre>

2. the flags to be used by the utility
3. should *I take care of database recovery in server process when
the utility fails

Thanks,
Vasu
