Re: Save while Active

   Jon

   I work for a JBA (Geac)&n= bsp;agent in Scotland and we do have one
   customer who never shuts down= any of the subsystems and performs a save
   while active. They have carried = out DR testing successfully and are
   happy with the result. I am not convinc= ed though that all the files will
   be in sync as some data may still be held= in memory.

   Best option is to try a test save o= f say OSLD1F3 during the day to see
   if you can get it, then check the integ= rity of some key entries like
   next sales order/invoice number against last = order taken etc.

   Cheers

   Subject: [SYSTEM21] Save while Active

   I've been asked by our new pa= rent company,  for 24 hrs operations on&   
nbsp;one
   box.  With this in mind the=  only way I can think of doing a&nb   
sp;nightly save
   is via the save while&nbs= p;active command.  Does anybody out there&nbs   
p;use this
   method of saving and if s= o what problems if any have they come&nb   
sp;across?

   I am aware that any active = objects will not be saved at the time&nb   
sp;and this
   could lead to data being&nbsp= ;saved at different times.

   TIA
