hotcopy-copy fdb from other server failed

teckpoh

Dear all,

I would like to use hotcopy to backup fdb from other server, unfortunately when i run my bak.cmd file backup failed.

Below is my script:
==============
hotcopy source="\\myserver\NavSupport\database.fdb" destination="C:\New Folder" description="email desc" email=tp.wee@domain.net servername=myserver user=teckpoh password= cc=yes nettype=tcp

Below is failed message:
==================
The following message came from server.
The operating system cannot find the drive and directory specified for the file.
Please check that the drive, directory and files name are correct.
Backup ended with an error at 2009/05/7 14:25:14

instead ther are fdb in my shared file..and i already set the full control of the file. Any idea? 10s in adv~

Just a wild gues:
I think that the hotcopy doesn't accept "\\MyServer\.
You should put the hotcopy on the DB-server itself and use something like "source="C:\NavSupport\database.fdb".

You might try to use destination="\\otherserver\...". But I would advice to first try to save it to the same server on some other disk (or subdir) and then retry the destination="\\otherserver\..."
