Backing Up Blobspaces

It does not matter whether you back up the logical logs or blobspaces first.

To back up blobspace data
  1. Close the current logical log if it contains transactions on simple large objects in a blobspace.
  2. Perform a backup of the logical logs and blobspace as soon as possible after updating simple-large-object data.
Warning:
If you do not back up these blobspaces and logical logs, you might not be able to restore the blobspace data. If you wait until a blobspace is down to perform the log backup, the database server cannot access the blobspace to copy the changed data into the logical log.
