iwfsck on backup?

Is it possible to run iwfsck on a backup of iwstore while it's still on the teamsite server?

The backing store on Windows 2000 is so large and disk space is cheap, so I use Opendeploy to replicate the backing store to a different directory on TeamSite.

I then have several hours at night for the Backup Utility to do a full backup.

So my question is while TeamSite is running is it possible to run iwfsck on the backup of the store without interfeering with the active store?

From the CLT manual for iwfsck.

-b path Uses path as the Content Store location. The default is the configured Content Store location returned by iwgetstore for the TeamSite server.

The manual is not exactly right here (TS65Sp1 on Win2k).

iwgetstore returns this:

C:\WINNT>iwgetstore
E:\iw-store

But the iwfsck requires this:

-b E:\iw-store\iw-store\default

If you are going to use iwfsck on a backing store, make sure you get the latest version of Interwoven's tech support (TS 6.5 SP2).
