For the truly paranoid you can set it to delete after the 2nd time it is archived. That way you have it on tape twice before the first deletion.
We used to do a rotating thing with Oracle archive logs to insure we could roll forward if necessary. We'd run an archive ever 6 hours and the logs would only be deleted on the second pass so that we'd always have 12 hours worth of logs on line and all the remaining logs on tape. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Clooney, David Sent: Wednesday, August 22, 2007 10:00 AM To: Martin, Jonathan; VERITAS-BU@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] bparchive Thanks Jonathan ________________________________ From: Martin, Jonathan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 22 August 2007 14:50 To: Clooney, David; VERITAS-BU@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: RE: [Veritas-bu] bparchive BPARCHIVE will not remove the data unless the backup completes successfully - Status 0.
