Urgent:
ASE 15.7
I tried a cross-platform dump and load after running sp_flushstats , checkpoint on the source database,
while loading on the destination server Il get the error 'database not quiesced , run sp_flushstats'
Tried
>quiesce database hold_sct hold sctdb for external dump to "/dbdumps/sctdb/sctdb.gtlmain.20140612.dmp"
go
This did not work dump did not take place : Message in the log indicated quiesce completed successfully
Process 208 successfully executed QUIESCE DATABASE with HOLD option for tag hold_sct. Processes trying to issue IO operation on the quiesced database(s) will be suspended until user executes Quiesce Database command with RELEASE option.
I tried breaking up the command
1. quiesce database hold_sct hold sctdb for external dump
2. dump database sctdb to "/dbdumps/sctdb/sctdb.gtlmain.20140612.dmp"
this message is displayed
QUIESCE DATABASE is in progress on database sctdb. After it completes, this dump will resume automatically.
dump database command is locked by the quiesce command ,
Does this take a long time (DB size is only 3GB)
Quick solution really appreciated
