The latest Firebird 2.5.x database can run in either Classic, SuperClassic, or SuperServer mode. How can I check in which of these modes an installed database is running?
To check that the Firebird Server is running in Windows just go to Services applet and check for Firebird Server and Firebird Guardian services. Alternatively, if you used the installer Firebird will have installed a Server Control Applet in the Control Panel.
You can find your client software version by opening the menu item Help --> About. You can find your Firebird Server version by clicking the Check Firebird Version button in the Database Connection window using the menu option Tools --> Database Connection.
Superserver. Processes. Creates a separate process for every client connection, each with its own cache. Less resource use if the number of connections is low. A single process serves all connections, using threads to handle requests.
Firebird is an open-source SQL relational database management system that support Linux, Microsoft Windows, macOS and other Unix platforms. The database forked from Borland's open source edition of InterBase in 2000 but the code has been largely rewritten since Firebird 1.5.
There's no API that exposes this. But because you're on a server, you can check what process is running.
I.e. on Windows and Firebird 2.5:
fb_inet_server.exe
= very likely SuperClassicfb_inet_server.exe
= very likely Classicfbserver.exe
= very likely SuperServerIf you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
