Here is the scenario:

08:00pm  Complete backup to disk
midnight Shutdown SAP DB database.
         Copy files to backup directory
         Startup SAP DB system.

05:30am  SAP DB detects that one of the data volumes are bad.

09:00am  Shutdown SAP DB database.
         Restore files copied at midnight.

At this point, I need to recover the database by applying the log files.  In
DB GUI, I start the database in warm mode.  I'm given the option to recover
the database from backup but not from the logs.  The recovery option is
going back to the 08:00pm backup that was taken.  I would like to bypass
this and just apply the logs.  Can this be done ? or am I required to
recover the database from the 8:00pm backup and then apply the logs ?  Any
help is appreciated.

Subject: Storing binary data in LONG (BYTE) columns in ESQL/C


I am using the C/C++ precompiler of SAP DB 7.3.0.34 and want
to store binary data in LONG (BYTE) columns.
I have the following ESQL/C code snippet, there are no database errors
at runtime, but the data isn't stored. What am I doing wrong ?

int Update (char * sqlstmt, tparam param[], int nparam) {
  EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
    char * stmt;
    char stmtupd[8];
  EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;
  sqlvartype *ha;
  int longcols=0;

  stmt = sqlstmt;
  EXEC SQL PREPARE stmtupd FROM  :stmt;
  if (sqlca.sqlcode!=0){return 1;}

  EXEC SQL DESCRIBE stmtupd;
  if (sqlca.sqlcode!=0){return 1;}

  for (i=0;i<nparam;i++){
    ha = &sqlda.sqlvar[i];
    if (ha->col.colislong) {
      SQLLongDesc *ldesc = (SQLLongDesc *)alloca(sizeof(SQLLongDesc));
      ldesc->szBuf = param[i].buf;
      ldesc->cbBufMax = param[i].size;
      ldesc->cbBufLen = param[i].size;

      ha->hostvartype=sqlvlongdesc;
      ha->hostvaraddr=ldesc;
      ha->hostcolsize = sizeof (SQLLongDesc);
      ha->collength = sizeof (SQLLongDesc);

      longcols = 1;
    } else {
      ...
    }
  }

  EXEC SQL EXECUTE stmtupd USING DESCRIPTOR;
  if (sqlca.sqlcode!=0 && sqlca.sqlcode!=100) {return 1;}

  if (longcols) {
    EXEC SQL PUTVAL stmtupd USING DESCRIPTOR;
    if (sqlca.sqlcode!=0 && sqlca.sqlcode!=100){return 1;}
  }

  return 0;
}
