Re: return code for onbar backups

Hi, what command do you mean when you say you are doing an "onbar full archive"? (Is this just a level-0 archive or is it a level-0 whole system archive?) What do you mean by "transaction logging turned on"? (Is it just the logging mode of the database? Or does it include whether log backup is being done or not? -> see value of onconfig parameter LTAPEDEV ... is it /dev/null ?) Please check onbar's activity log (onconfig parameter BAR_ACT_LOG). There may well be some more information about onbar's exit code, the reason, etc. Regards, Martin -- Martin Fuerderer IBM Informix Development Munich, Germany Information Management Informix URLs list: http://home.arcor.de/mfu1/informix/urls.html informix-list-bounces@iiug.org wrote on 16.11.2006 12:49:54: > Hello, > I wonder what this means, if anyone can tell me. > We have some databases that do not have transaction logging turned on. > On those databases when the onbar full archive completes we get the following message running IDS9.4FC3. > > Process exited with return code 1: /bin/sh /bin/sh -c /usr/online9.40.FC3/etc/alarmprogram.sh 2 16 > "Archive completed: 'rootdbs, llogs_1, llogs_2, physlog_1 > > I know that the alarmprogram.sh is being called with a simple informational message to say that the backups are complete. > But why the Return code of 1 ? > > Some more info: > On the one database we have that we log transactions on, we don't get that. > > Also, on our IDS10.FC5 box, we get the same thing, except the Return code is 127. > > Thanks. > Floyd > > ======================== > -<<Floyd Wellershaus>>- > Database Administrator > Unix Administrator > > email: fwellers@yahoo.com > Home: 703-430-0805 > Cell: 703-477-6045 > ======================== > http://www.one.org/ __ > Informix-list mailing list > Informix-list@iiug.org > http://www.iiug.org/mailman/listinfo/informix-list
