Progress v9.1A
I have been trying to create a script that will back up our databases. When I try and run probkup in online mode on our test machine it works just fine and the back up of the databases work. When I run the same script on the production machine I get the error There is no server for database <dbname>. (1423). I know that the databases do have servers running through progress explorer tool.
Now since the online backup was not working I tried to do an offline backup by shutting down the databases with dbman and then stopping the adminserver. Do the backup and then restart the adminserver. The problem I am having doing it this way is when it gets to the line in the script where it calls the probkup to do the backup of the first database I get an error The database <dbname> is in use in multi-user mode. What this means to me is that the database has not completely been shutdown when it tries to do the backup.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
