Hi Michael,

the values are looking quite good. Before the logbackup the "used size" is 
determined
by the number of unsaved pages:
> Used Size (KB)                  = 3000144      
> Used Size (%)                   = 27          
> Not Saved (KB)                  = 3000144      
> Not Saved (%)                   = 27          

after the backup the number of unsaved pages has been lowered so that the last 
savepoint
determines the size of the used log (all pages younger than the last savepoint 
are needed
for the next restart):

> Used Size (KB)                  = 3018552      
> Used Size (%)                   = 27          
> Not Saved (KB)                  = 1655960      
> Not Saved (%)                   = 15          

If the value of "not saved" exceeds the backup segment size then the automatic 
logbackup
should start. The value of "used size" will increase until the next savepoint 
is written.
This will be at the point when this value exceeds 66 %.

I'm a little bit confused about your statement that the autosave save two files 
with different
size. Is it possible that you meant the manually started logbackup. For enabled 
autosave you should
find something like
        2006-09-05 15:03:45     0x1080     52104 AUTOSAVE standby mode on
in the file knldiag. Any subsequent messages regarding the autosave will also 
have the label
AUTOSAVE.

kind regards, Martin
