Overview 307

Nortel recommends that you close all the DECT Messenger applications

before starting the backup procedure. In release 2, the file copy procedure

is implemented by means of a Windows API-call, as shown with the code

excerpt in Figure 62 "File copy example" (page 307):

ATTENTION

To ensure a complete and consistent image, you must close all applications

before backup.The code shown in Figure 62 "File copy example" (page 307) can

back up files, even if they are open. Therefore, you can initiate the eBACKUP

while, for instance, eKERNEL is active and the Messenger_CFG.mdb database

is open. Although you can use the eBACKUP to save the open files, Nortel does

not guarantee that the copied file is a complete image or a consistent database

image. During activity of eKERNEL, parts of the Access 2000 database are

sometimes in use and transactions are pending. Saving open files is not

officially supported.
