Cloudberry Backup + Firebird

MSP360 Backup

Hello people.

I am testing the FREE version of Cloudberry Backup to save a Firebird database. Cloudberry is unable to save the file. The message that appears is “Cannot access 1 file (s) because they are being used by another process”.

What can I do for him to copy the base while it is being used?

[reply=“Jean Felipe;d1321”] There seems to be an issue with Firebird databases. It’s impossible to use VSS to back up relational databases, so I wouldn’t recommend to include them in your backup plan, these error messages are unavoidable in your case.

ok Matt. I get it. I really needed this. But … thanks for the help.

You can do it with pre/post actions by scripting backup creation.

I tried yesterday with the script function and it worked!

set path=C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_2_5\bin
gbak -user SYSDBA -pas masterkey -v 192.168.1.252/3051:C:\Microsys\MsysComercial\Dados\MSYSDADOS.FDB C:\BKP_MSYS\MSYSDADOS.fdb

Thank you for your help!
