I'm guessing that what you're saying is that - you issue the applylogs command - the command waits until you copy a log file into the folder - it applies the log and then deletes it. You then repeat the copy for each log until you're done. Is that a correct guess? What happens if the applylogs needs logs that *have* been archived by the TDP, either before or after the manual logs? Is the TDP clever enough to handle that? At a guess, it should - restore/apply/delete the logs as usuaul, from before the manual set - wait for you to copy the logs in, as described above - then continue with the usual restore/apply/delete of logs from after the manual set Is it really that clever?
