NetBase Shadowing

3. Your FILE statement on the master machine needs to have SYNC added to it, for example:
D>FILE CHKDB.group.account,masternode,shadownode;SYNC
4. If you are setting up shadowing for the first time, perform a store/restore with the OLDDATE
option to get the data from the master to the shadow machine. If you have already been
shadowing the database, the store/restore step is not necessary.
To build the crossreference table on the shadow system, you need to perform the following step
on the shadow machine:
:RUN NBSYNC.PUB.NETBASE,RESET
When the DBX parameter is specified for a database, NBSYNC will start the DBSETUP program
to recreate the crossreference files. This takes around one minute per 400,000 sectors of detail
sets. A very big database could take quite a while to resync.
