It doesn't make a difference if you have one or more logsegement.They
are seen as one big segment. The way you describe it (the queue mode at
least) is like the way oracle works (maybe other databases too), but
maxdb seems not to work that way.

Where I asked more or less the same question (at the bottom of the mail)

    But there are some question.
    
        If my instance have three log segments.In nature only one be used,isn't 
    it?If a instance have more log segments,the database will do backup 
    continually.At the same time ensuring security,I think it must bring some 
    spaces waste and capability waste.
    
       I have two suppose about the auto log backup,please help analyze it 
    correctness.
    
       One,It be achieved as pool mode.
           
           There are one pool which keep three log segments.Only one log 
    segment be used.When  
        it full.The DBMS random write log into another log segment. At the same 
    time DBMS 
        backup the segment that be full and then clear it.At last,the log 
    segment put in pool 
        again.
    
       Two,It be achieved as queue mode.
           
           There are one queue which keep three log segments.The first log 
    segment be used.When 
       it full.The DBMS random write log into the second log segment. At the 
    same time DBMS 
       backup the first segment and then clear it.At last,the log segment put 
    in queue at the 
       last again.
    
    thanks!
