ibase_restore

(PHP 5, PHP 7 < 7.4.0)

ibase_restoreInitiates a restore task in the service manager and returns immediately


Description

ibase_restore ( resource $service_handle , string $source_file , string $dest_db [, int $options = 0 [, bool $verbose = FALSE ]] ) : mixed

This function passes the arguments to the (remote) database server. There it starts a new restore process. Therefore you won't get any responses.


Parameters

service_handle
A previously opened connection to the database server.
source_file
The absolute path on the server where the backup file is located.
dest_db
The path to create the new database on the server. You can also use database alias.
options
Additional options to pass to the database server for restore. The options parameter can be a combination of the following constants: IBASE_RES_DEACTIVATE_IDX, IBASE_RES_NO_SHADOW, IBASE_RES_NO_VALIDITY, IBASE_RES_ONE_AT_A_TIME, IBASE_RES_REPLACE, IBASE_RES_CREATE, IBASE_RES_USE_ALL_SPACE, IBASE_PRP_PAGE_BUFFERS, IBASE_PRP_SWEEP_INTERVAL, IBASE_RES_CREATE. Read the section about Predefined Constants for further information.
verbose
Since the restore process is done on the database server, you don't have any chance to get its output. This argument is useless.


Return Values

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

Since the restore process is done on the (remote) server, this function just passes the arguments to it. While the arguments are legal, you won't get FALSE.
