Detach citadel database to move

[mooseo]

Hi,

I'm upgrading the computer I use for datalogging. I want to move my citadel database over. Ive tried following the intrucctions here: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/2B0C74744BB37391862571F500067C64 , but when I go to Detach the database, I get an error "The operation cannot be completed because the resource is in use by another client." There is nothing else running besides MAX, as far as I know.

Do I actually need to detach the database if I won't use it again on this computer?  Can I just copy the data folder over?

thanks

mike

Hi mooseo,

It seems this error occurs when the process is still connected in Distributed System Manager.  Try this KnowledgeBase article (do not do step 3, do the other KB article that you have there instead)

It is probably safest to detach and move the database.

Let me know how it goes.
