Log_Backup into pipe is only supported in conjuction with backup-tools, which has to ensure, that the logbackup has successfully written on the other side of the pipe. This has been done because of the uncertain transmission over networks. In effect this means that the tool sends an acknowledge to the database when the save has been successfully done in order to allow the database to free the saved logPages. If you set the parameter LOG_BACKUP_TO_PIPE, then this acknowledge is not needed (nor allowed). But be aware, that if you loose some of your log-backup, then you may not be able to recover your database. regards, Martin _______________________________________________ sapdb.general mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listserv.sap.com/mailman/listinfo/sapdb.general
