Adabas D / Schedule Manager: xbackup crashes

Symptom:

The two programs xbackup and xrestore coming with Adabas 6.1.1.2 that are used by the Schedule Manager to perform and restore the backups crash with a Segmentation Fault . This is especially bad since the Schedule Manager doesn't show this !

The Schedule Manager doesn't create any backups !

Cause:

So far we don't know the exact reason, however this is for sure an error in these two programs.

Solution:

Fortunately there is a shell script which can take over these tasks. Here is a short description of how to use it :

cd $DBROOT/bin
mv xbackup xbackup.old
mv xrestore xrestore.old
ln -s backrest.sh xbackup
ln -s backrest.sh xrestore
The Schedule Manager is now able to do the backups in a correct way.
