GOAL:
How can I find the blocksize of a database from backup file created by the probkup utility?
GOAL:
Is there any way to find the database block size from a backup file?
FACT(s) (Environment):
All Supported Operating Systems
OpenEdge 10.x
FIX:
Running the prorest command with the -vp option will list the database blocksize as part of its output. The -vp option instructs the prorest utility to read the backup file(s) and compute and compare the backup block cyclic redundancy checks (CRC's) with those in the block headers. Using the -vp option will not restore the database, only the CRC scan is performed.
For example:
> prorest anyname database_backup_file -vp
This is a full backup of /scratchdisk/mydatabase.db. (6759)
This backup was taken Wed Jun 16 17:00:54 2010. (6760)
The blocksize is 8192. (6994)
Partial verification successfully read backup volume. (6765)

Backup for /scratch/mydatabase.db verified ok. (6758)
