'Backup Library' dialog

This dialog prompts you for a directory in the file system where the Library will be saved. The directory contents will be erased before backup.

This is a ``hot backup'' which saves a snapshot of the database: any modification made by another connection during the backup will be ignored. This is meaningful and useful in a multi-user environment, like a Web Application running in a servlet container.

The Restore operation consists simply of moving or copying the directory of the backup Library to the place of the original Library (see Administrator section of the manual for details).
