Default Running multiple instances of dbbackup - 01-13-2010 , 01:47 PM






Is there a way to run multiple instances of dbbackup from batch file? I have
to execute live backup of 50 databases and would like to create batch file
if possible.

I couldn't find any information about that online.

Thanks.

That would be a feature of the OS Shell. On Unix background task may make
sense .... (use of `nohup dbbackup .... &` might be a way to go) and on
Widows the batch file may need to use the start command to launch those ....
approach

But a better approach is to schedule each of these seperatel using your
choice of scheduler. I recommend consider configuring every database to
have it's own backup events for this [at least for the incremental log
backups
I recommended on the other thread].
