Description

Activates the shadow file for database use.

Call ActivateShadow to activate the database shadow.

InterBase 6 lets you recover a database in case of disk failure, network failure, or accidental deletion of the database. This recovery method is known as disk shadowing, or simply shadowing. Before you can activate shadowing, you must first create a database shadow, as discussed in 'Shadowing' and 'Creating a shadow' in the InterBase 6 Operations Guide.

Note: You must install InterBase 6 to use this feature.
