These 206 pages of your logdbs are not alloted for logical log backup. The
remaining pages 75259 (minus few pages) are used for logical logs. And
that's what shown by onstat -d. If you like to see how much logical log
space is free / used, use onstat -l. The 206 pages of your dbspace logdbs is
not part of your logical log space.
You can use these 206 pages to add another logical log on your system or let
them as they are.
