Hi all Firstly let me thank those who helped me out last night getting my server back up after the recovery log filled.....much better than IBM support...!
I have found the culprit that caused the log to fill. It seems that when the incremental backups are running for a win2k cluster the log gets written to at approx 2.2Gb an hour. The incremental didn't even backup that much data, in terms of size but I guess there must have been loads of small files in there. The problem I have now is, how can I back up this cluster if it is going to fill the recovery log everytime. The log is 5196 Mb so cannot grow much bigger, alas we're on 4.1.5 Server and yes I've made management aware that we need to upgrade to take advantage of the new recovery log size features. Looking back through adsm.org people have mentioned the ckpt command. Does anyone know how well this works in rollforward mode?? Many Thanks again Chris _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx
