Hi there, I am wondering what would be the best way to update a db. I would like to bring down the server, but I am afraid to get an inconsistant state of data. What if someone is just registering on another db? Is there a way to flush and lock the whole db not just some tables? Thanx, Andy PS: what would be the best way to exchange data on a running server? For example... a db containing geodata should be updated, but the user db should be running ok
