Re: Backup Log Files to Tape

Hi Kris,

 

Regarding your concern, SAP note 1377148 at point 9 explains:

 

1. b) AUTOSAVE LOG
   
   The automatic saving of log segments is triggered directly from the database core. There is no upstream instance (for example, DBM Server) that guarantees the creation of a pipe. Therefore, automatic log backups to a pipe CANNOT be supported at present.

Tape should be the same.

 

 

Also at present, only file can be the medium for automatic log backup.

 

Best regards,

Hi James,

AUTOSAVE LOG was only for backup the log area to files, For example, If I set AUTOSAVE LOG to file BAD_LOG, there will be files BAD_LOG.001, BAD_LOG.002 and so on. Is there any way to backup those files (BAD_LOG.001, BAD_LOG.002) to tape?

Thanks,

Kris
