The environment can be copied regardless of whether it is currently in use. +No lockfile is created, since it gets recreated at need. + +If +.I dstpath +is specified it must be the path of an empty directory +for storing the backup. Otherwise, the backup will be +written to stdout. + +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.BR \-V +Write the library version number to the standard output, and exit. +.TP +.BR \-c +Compact while copying. Only current data pages will be copied; freed +or unused pages will be omitted from the copy. This option will +slow down the backup process as it is more CPU-intensive. +.TP +.BR \-n +Open LDMB environment(s) which do not use subdirectories. + .SH DIAGNOSTICS Exit status is zero if no errors occur. Errors result in a non-zero exit status and a diagnostic message being written to standard error. +.SH CAVEATS +This utility can trigger significant file size growth if run +in parallel with write transactions, because pages which they +free during copying cannot be reused until the copy is done. .SH "SEE ALSO" .BR mdb_stat (1) .SH AUTHOR
