DB_ENV->get_backup_config(DB_ENV, db_backup_config_t option, 
                          u_int32_t *valuep);

The DB_ENV->get_backup_config() method retrieves the value set for hot backup tuning parameters. See the DB_ENV->backup() and DB_ENV->dbbackup() methods for a description of the hot backup APIs. These tuning parameters can be set using the DB_ENV->set_backup_config() method.

The DB_ENV->get_backup_config() method may be called at any time during the life of the application.

The DB_ENV->get_backup_config() method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
