ibase_backup — Initiates a backup task in the service manager and returns immediately
$service_handle
, string $source_db
, string $dest_file
[, int $options = 0
[, bool $verbose = FALSE
]] ) : mixedThis function passes the arguments to the (remote) database server. There it starts a new backup process. Therefore you won't get any responses.
service_handleA previously opened connection to the database server.
source_dbThe absolute file path to the database on the database server. You can also use a database alias.
dest_fileThe path to the backup file on the database server.
options
Additional options to pass to the database server for backup.
The options parameter can be a combination
of the following constants:
IBASE_BKP_IGNORE_CHECKSUMS,
IBASE_BKP_IGNORE_LIMBO,
IBASE_BKP_METADATA_ONLY,
IBASE_BKP_NO_GARBAGE_COLLECT,
IBASE_BKP_OLD_DESCRIPTIONS,
IBASE_BKP_NON_TRANSPORTABLE or
IBASE_BKP_CONVERT.
Read the section about 预定义常量 for further information.
verboseSince the backup process is done on the database server, you don't have any chance to get its output. This argument is useless.
成功时返回 TRUE， 或者在失败时返回 FALSE。
Since the backup process is done on the (remote) server, this function just passes the arguments to it.
While the arguments are legal, you won't get FALSE.
Example #1 ibase_backup() example
<?php
// Attach to database server by ip address and port
$service = ibase_service_attach ('10.1.11.200/3050', 'sysdba', 'masterkey');
// Start the backup process on database server
// Backup employee database using full path to /srv/backup/employees.fbk
// Don't use any special arguments
ibase_backup($service, '/srv/firebird/employees.fdb', '/srv/backup/employees.fbk');
// Free the attached connection
ibase_service_detach ($service);
?>
Example #2 ibase_backup() example with arguments
<?php
// Attach to database server by name and default port
$service = ibase_service_attach ('fb-server.contoso.local', 'sysdba', 'masterkey');
// Start the backup process on database server
// Backup employee database using alias to /srv/backup/employees.fbk.
// Backup only the metadata. Don't create a transportable backup.
ibase_backup($service, 'employees.fdb', '/srv/backup/employees.fbk', IBASE_BKP_METADATA_ONLY | IBASE_BKP_NON_TRANSPORTABLE);
// Free the attached connection
ibase_service_detach ($service);
?>
I tried to get the backup function working, but could never figur out where to get the resource service_handle. The trick was to use ibase_service_attach.
$resource_service_handle = ibase_service_attach ('localhost', 'username', 'password');
ibase_backup($resource_service_handle, 'source_database', 'destination_file');
ibase_service_detach ($resource_service_handle);
