Hi again Joachim,
Yes you will receive 'file in use' message. What kind of database are you
talking about and is it a online backup you are doing? You can try to change
mode on the database during backup (but I´m not sure it will help) or make a
database export and backup the exported copy.

Hi Henrik,

thanks for your answer.
But if we start the backup while application has the db allocated, we usually
should get the "file in use"-message.
Or not?

At the moment we are testing the OSA-Gigabit-Adapter to backup our Nodes ;)
Then the problem with the network should be solved...
