We are working on a backup solution for backing up the PIM information on a WM2005 device and I can not find out how to have the background services to release the locks on the PIM.VOL (EDB) - I can copy the file over to another file name but I can not replace the file as the file is locked.
I have tried several Mount, Delete, etc operations. I have even tried replacing the contents of the EDB database on a per record basis but the "Dirty Bits" (replication) all get set and I have already been informed that alteration of the Replication Bits were not implemented in WM2005 -
I a stumped and needing help in a very bad way!! ![]()

How can you force Closing PIM.VOL on Magneto??
