RE: Need help w/ ontape -r

If you are doing a warm restore, the logical log files are written to temporary space (DBSPACETEMP). You can change the value of DBSPACETEMP to point to a larger partition to get around the problem, but I'm pretty sure that this will change it for your entire instance, not just ontape. **************************************** * My Opinions are strictly my own. * * The above statements have not been * * verified or sanctioned by anyone. * **************************************** -----Original Message----- From: Top Cat [mailto:cstefanick@ocsmgmt.com] Sent: Friday, April 02, 1999 8:35 AM To: informix-list@iiug.org Subject: Need help w/ ontape -r I was trying to restore a test database using ontape. It went fine when I just restored off the system tape (ontape -s -L 0), but I encountered problems whenever I tried to restore the logical logs. I ran out of room in /tmp and the restore just came to a halt! Is there a way to specify a different location for ontape to use? Also, is there a way to know how much memory ontape is going to need? Answers to either of these questions w/d be greatly appreciated!
