accessing active log files

GB
I heard that db2 (on windows 2000) crashes when making a xcopy of active
log files, is this true ?

Is there a way to copy active log files without crashing db2 ?

Thanks, Greg

DB2 supports log mirroing. You can look it up in the Admin Guide.

In this case db2 is writing to two files located on different drives,
and db2 is still accessing these files directly...

I'm using userexit and am trying to loose as few information as possible
in case of disaster (fire). Archived logs are copied to a remote site. I
think it could make sense to try to copy the active logfiles, but is it
really possible ???

P.S. I'm using db2 v7.2

I copy log files on windows 2000 all the time without crashing DB2.
Why is it crashing? What is the error?

I would avoid copying active log files. If you are trying to minimize your
data loss, you need to manage your log file size so that files get archived
on a regular basis.

Good luck,

Sorry I don't have more information about this. Colleagues told me not
to do it, because they crashed db2 by doing an xcopy of the active logs,
but it was quite a long time ago and finding the corresponding log
entries is now quite difficult :-(

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
