JadeDatabaseAdmin Class

The JadeDatabaseAdmin class encapsulates the behavior required to write standalone or integrated database administration tools for your Jade applications; for example, for runtime Jade systems or for online database backups controlled from your user applications.

The JadeDatabaseAdmin class, in conjunction with the DbFile class, enables you to create database administration tools that provide:

• Database administration functions such as analyzing, compacting, certifying, or verifying your database.

• Full online backup to disk. (Backing up is not supported to any other medium.)

• Support for multiple backup destinations, backup concurrency, and data compression.

For details about:

• The constants and methods defined in the JadeDatabaseAdmin class and event notifications, see "JadeDatabaseAdmin Class Constants", "JadeDatabaseAdmin Methods", and "JadeDatabaseAdmin Class Event Notifications", in the following subsections.

• Incorporating the Jade database administration framework to integrate online backup services into your own applications or to build standalone database administration applications, see Chapter 7, "Using the Database Administration Framework", of the Developer's Reference.

• Database backup and recovery, see Chapter 3 of the Database Administration Guide, "Administering the Jade Database". (See also "Subscribing to Backup Progress Events" and "Notification Event Methods" under "DbFile Class Event Notifications", earlier in this chapter.)

• External third‑party snapshot backups, see "Non‑Jade Backups" in the Developing a Backup Strategy White Paper.
