Copying Emergency Save Set to Regular Volume Set (ON-Archive)
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).
