RESCUELOG
Stores a copy of a log file without accessing the DBECon file. You use
this command to store a log file that cannot be stored using STORELOG.
Scope
SQLUtil Only
SQLUtil Syntax
>> RESCUELOG Log File Name: LogFileName Size Of The Log File:
LogFileSize To File Name? DeviceName Rescue Log File(y/n)? {Y[es]}
{N[o] }
Parameters
LogFileName is the name of the log file that is to be rescued
(that is, stored).
LogFileSize is the size in 512-byte pages of the log file
that is to be rescued.
DeviceName is the device name for the tape or disk device
that will receive the store file.
Description
* This command lets you store a log file. It is normally used only
with files that cannot be stored with STORELOG.
* Normally, this command would only be used following the corruption
of DBEnvironment files through a media failure or some other
serious problem. If you are unable to connect to the
DBEnvironment, use a static SHOWLOG to display log files that have
not been stored, then use RESCUELOG to store them.
* If more than one tape volume is required to store the file, a
request will be displayed on the console. The next tape can then
be mounted.
Authorization
Any user may execute this command.
Example
>> rescuelog
Log File Name: DBELOG6
Size Of The Log File: 250
To File Name? TAPE
Rescue Log File(y/n)? y
Log file 'DBELOG6' with Sequence Number 12 was rescued.
