Logging of Parallel Export/Import Processes 

Export/import processes can run in parallel when the following functions are used:

SAPDBA Function

Main Log

Reorganization ® Reorganize list of tables or indexes

<timestamp>.rli

Reorganization ® Reorganize tablespace

<timestamp>.rtc

Reorganization ® Reorganize tablespace and datafiles

<timestamp>.rtd

Export/import ® Export tables and indexes including data

<timestamp>.exd

Export/import ® Import tables and indexes including data

<timestamp>.imd

 

When several parallel export/import processes are started (see Parallel Export/Import) partial, temporary logs are written in addition to the main logs listed above.

They are stored in the directory:
 <working directory>/<timestamp> and have the names:

unl|ldr|exp|imp<TSP>_<n>.log (n=2,...,number of processes)

exc<TSP>_<n>.log (n=1,....,number of processes)

The actions of the first process are recorded in the main log. From the second parallel import/export onwards, partial temporary logs are written. After the completion of the last export, the partial logs are appended to the main log and are then deleted. The temporary logs are not displayed on the screen during interactive processing.

If SAPDBA cancels an import or export in progress, the partial logs are kept and not appended to the main log.
