RE: logical logs full

The B under flags means backed up. The logs with U-B have been used and have been backed up. They are ready for use right now. Older versions of the engine did not show a B. The U used to change to F for free.

I ran ontape -s but it didn't cleanup these logs. When I run 'ontape -a' or 'ontape -l', it says: Logbackup failed - Log backup to device '/dev/null' not allowed Questions: 1. Should I be worried, or is it ok ? 2. Is it that last one (now at 63%) fills up , will they all be reset to 0% ? 3. How do I cleanup these logic. logs. ? 4. How automatically setup so they get cleaned up themselves ? Please copy me in your reply. Thanks for info. AH
