an other Onbar-Networker question
Posted in 2003
Topics: Backup & Restore, SQL Development & Query Writing, Logging & Checkpoints
Hi all,
Previously I did not backed up my logical logs with ontape
(LTAPEDEV=/dev/null). So I want to have the same thing with onbar
(LTAPEDEV=/dev/null). Following the documentation I can have LTAPEDEV set to
/dev/null if I want to use serial backup (onbar -b -w).
But when I use onbar -b -w, I still have the error 'Cannot backup logical
logs to /dev/null'
Please tell me what am I missing here ??
thanks for the help

Samir,
If the return code is a 152, it is really not an error, but a warning.
As long as you are using "onbar -b -w", and don't mind the extra
features that you get with additional logical logs (i.e. point-in-time
restore) then you are safe to backup the way you do. Good luck.
