Procedure documentation Copying Emergency Save Set to Regular Volume Set (ON-Archive)  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Use

This procedure is part of an emergency logical-log backup on the Informix database with ON-Archive without the SAP scripts. For an overview, see Emergency Logical-Log Backup without SAP Scripts (ON-Archive).

In this step, you copy the cataloged emergency save set to the regular logical-log backup volume set LOGTAP (held on tape), using the copy command in ON-Archive . For information about the cataloged emergency save set, see Cataloging the Emergency Save Set (ON-Archive). You need to use the request ID that was rebuilt in this step, 106 in our example.

Prerequisites

The previous step depends on how you normally perform logical-log backup:

Procedure

Mount the correct volume from LOGTAP and then enter the following command:

$ onarchive 'COPY/VSET=ONDATARTRLOG/DESTINATION=LOGTAP/REQUEST=106'

ON-Archive confirms the request and then executes it:

Request 00000107 registered in the catalog.

The copy can take some time to complete.

Result

The next step is Deleting the Emergency Save Set (ON-Archive).
