RE: alarmprogram.bat and ontape

you need to add code in alarmprogram.bat to check for "event class id" (second argument passed to the alarm program), and to backup the logs when this value is 23. also make sure the following config parameters are set LTAPEDEV, LTAPEBLK and LTAPESIZE -----Original Message----- From: owner-informix-list@iiug.org [mailto:owner-informix-list@iiug.org]On Behalf Of Bill Hamilton Sent: Monday, March 01, 2004 1:47 PM To: informix-list Subject: alarmprogram.bat and ontape In alarmprogram.bat, I set: SET BACKUPLOGS=Y SET BACKUP_CMD=ontape -a the onconfig file has ALARMPROGRAM C:\\PROGRA~1\\Informix\\etc\\alarmprogram.bat When the logs filled up, the log file showed 15:38:44 Logical Log Files are Full -- Backup is Neededbut a backup did NOT start. The IDS email'ed me a message, that the logs were full, but ontape did not run. Is this because ontape has no "-y" switch and cannot run from bat file ? sending to informix-list sending to informix-list
