PROQUIET Command

Stops all writes to database files by enabling a “quiet” processing point (useful for advanced backup strategies). You can also use the PROQUIET command with the bithreshold parameter to adjust the size of the recovery log threshold online. Use the -bithold startup parameter to set the size of the recovery log threshold on startup.

For more information on using database quiet points, see the Progress Database Administration Guide and Reference .

proquiet db-name -C { { enable | disable } | bithreshold n } 

PARAMETERS

db-name

Specifies the name of the database where you are enabling or disabling a quiet processing point.

-C

Specifies a parameter.

enable | disable

Enables or disables a quiet processing point. Any processes that attempt transactions while a quiet point is enabled must wait until the quiet point is disabled.

bithreshold n

Specifies the maximum size to which .bi recovery files can grow, where n is an integer specifying the size of the threshold in MB. You can increase the size of the threshold above the current value or reduce the size to one cluster larger than the size of the recovery log file at the time the PROQUIET command is issued. You must issue the PROQUIET enable command to enable a quiet point before using the -bithreshold parameter to adjust the size of the threshold.
