Re: [Flaim-devel] Xflaim Incremental Backup

[Daniel S. <dsa...@no...>]

You can only do incremental backups on databases where you have actually done a full backup prior to the incremental backup.  If you attempt to do an incremental backup on a restored database, it will not work until you first take a full backup.  Restored databases are considered to be in a "not-yet-backed-up" state.

Ok, I finally got the full backup working.  I also got the restore to work for a full backup.

Now I am trying to do an incremental backup of the database, but when I open it with the following line,

db.backupBegin(FlmBackupType.INCREMENTAL_BACKUP, TransactionType.READ_TRANS, 0, null);

I get an error:
xflaim.XFlaimException: Error code from XFLAIM was 0000C026
at xflaim.Db._backupBegin(Native Method)
at xflaim.Db.backupBegin(Db.java:1171)
at de.suse.backends.IncrementalBackupUtil.StartBackup(IncrementalBackupUtil.java:56)
at de.suse.backends.IncrementalBackupUtil.run(IncrementalBackupUtil.java:29)
at BackupStuff.main(BackupStuff.java:15)

The error is defined as NE_FLM_ILLEGAL_OP, why would it throw an illegal operation on this line?

Thanks,
-Chris
