<p>
The <code class="function">db_copy()</code> routine copies the named
database file to the target directory. An optional password can be
specified for encrypted database files. This routine can be used
on operating systems that do not support atomic file system reads
to create a hot backup of a database file. If the specified
database file is for a QUEUE database with extents, all extent
files for that database will be copied as well.
