When I tried installing Firebird 2.1.xxx, I was informed that preinstallation analysis indicates that 1 existing firebird version has been found, & that if I continue with the installation Firebird will be installed but not configured. I will also need to complete the installation manually.

Should I just continue with the installation? Do I need to perform any manual configuration after installation? 

Lewis:

May I know whether IBOConsole can backup or restore firebird database while the server is running?

No. You must always shut down a server before restoring it.  That way is a sure way of causing corruption.  But you can always backup while the server is running.

Hmm.  Perhaps uninstall Firebird first then.
