  34 <PRE>This isnt necessarily related to this except in this:
  35 Is it normal for the services DBs to get corrupted (read zeroed, blank db)
  36 about 1/3 times you use /operserv shutdown or die or restart?  I have tried
  37 it under RedHat 7.1 and Debian Sid, both have the same problem... Might it
  38 be that I am using it with UnrealIRCd?  Any ideas... I have a crontab that
  39 copies the dbs to a rotated backup every 6 hours, but i don't know if an
  40 update is really needed or not before just copying the db's....  Also, on
  41 another note -- the dbs never have a problem if i just kill the services
  42 pid.  Really odd....

  55 &gt;<i> My shell provider likes to crash a lot and 90% of the time my databases
  56 </I>&gt;<i> get corrupt. So I wrote a simple perl script that every 12 hours
  57 </I>&gt;<i> archives the current databases. I was wondering if there was some way
  58 </I>&gt;<i> that right before my script runs it could signal services to save to
  59 </I>&gt;<i> disk? Thanks.
