Re: BackUp

Hi Sven, your settings seems to be ok - where is the problem ??? FYI if you set LTAPEDEV to /dev/null (Unix) or NUL (NT) the database engine marks automatically the used logs as "backed up" ("B" flag in "onstat -l"). So an additional logfile backup isn't necessary. Note that the flag condition "U-B----" has the same meaning like "F------" (rewritable).
