Hello,
I've setup a daily cronjob that performs an online backup of my DB every night. Now I noticed that the backup fails sometimes with missing logfiles.
The DB is configured for 10 primary and 5 secondary logfiles. I took an listing of all logfiles exactly before the backup (which fails) and after the backup.
Here is the listing before the backup:
Now the backup aborts with missing logfile S0027804.LOG which was there before the backup starts. Now the listing after the failed backup:
It seems that DB2 cycles the backups exactly the moment the backup should
take place. Any advice? Should I increase the number of primary logs? Thx in advance.
