Hi there,
We have a fairly large Frontier database running on OSX. We back up the disk via
Apple's Time Machine, which gives us hourly snapshots of the disk.
Recently, I've noticed that the Time Machine backups for the Frontier databases
are out of date. They're old.
After looking into it a bit more, I think Time Machine is not the cause.
It looks like the original files are not being saved to disk until Frontier
quits. If pick "Save Database..." in Frontier, then Frontier says 'Saving
database", yet the timestamp and filesize of the file does not change. These
change only when quitting Frontier.
Is there a setting somewhere that affects this behavior? I am fairly confident
that Frontier used to save 'properly.' That is, the DB saved periodically ask
changes were made, and as a result, the timestamp of the .root file was updated,
etc.
Thanks-
Bill
