Why? (In reply to Robin Sheat from comment #1) > Why? This option would nicely fix a problem when backing up a ‘large’ Koha, that takes some hours to complete. Large koha instances can accumulate many stalled perl processes, when their databases are locked during backup. Eventually, mysql could hang or crash, and the server will become unstable :) The option to ‘disable’ Koha instances for the duration of their backup, would stop this problem from occurring I suppose that's reasonable :) |
