does Not logged initally affect rolling forward recover?

we are using db2 udb v8.2 on windows. All our tables are created with
"not logged initially" parameter. Our application with auto commit on.
I would like to do an online backup and rolling forward recovery, is
this allowed? because in the document, i read these: You cannot recover
these tables when rolling forward. If the rollforward operation
encounters a table that was created or altered with the NOT LOGGED
INITIALLY option, the table is marked as unavailable. After the
database is recovered, any attempt to access the table returns
SQL1477N. If there any workaround to get rid of the parameter so we
could do online backup? thanks

NOT LOGGED INITIALLY is turned off as soon as one does a commit (explicitly
or with auto-commit), so if you do a backup after that and use the later
backup, you should be able to roll forward from the later backup forward.
You just cannot roll forward through a point in time when NOT LOGGED
INITIALLY is active.

In V8.2, this attribute is on by default.
It means that whenever you issue ALTER TABLE ... ACTIVATE NOT LOGGED
INITIALLY then everything between that and the next commit is not logged.
If you do not issue it, nothing changes and the table is in ormal state
and can be backed in its tablespace and recovered and rolled forward.

If you do and encounter a a rollback or a failure, as you recover the
table is marked inaccessible and you cannot recover it.

The fact it is enabled to be NLI does not do anything until you issue
the ACTIVATE.

So if i want to activate HADR (high availability disaster recovery) for
the database, in the document it said " non-replicated operations
include, but are not limited to --Tables created with the NOT LOGGED
initially option specified", so does that means i can't do HADR on our
current database because all the tables are created with the NLI
option? thanks

I'm not sure how this is normally done, on a large site, perhaps one running Phorum. Occassionally a thread will have hundreds of entries, perhaps a meg or two worth of data. You won't necessarily print all that to the screen, but PHP has to hold it in memory. Run some operations on it, or, more likely, have an array that you keep adding things to, and very soon you run into the 8 meg limit that is the default limit for PHP scripts. ...

Hi, We have a heavily used production server and a table which logs every hit on a web site. This table has grown large over time and we want to clear it down as efficiently as possible. We would like to issue a truncate table statement, but with millions of rows we are a bit wary of how this will affect server performance. The alternative is to delete is stages using rowcount but of course this will generate a large amount of logging....

Hi, I am testing out some restores to a stand-by server, by roll-forwading the logs. I have this setup. There is no user-exit, but logretain is on, for archive logging. I have 2 DB's on different servers ( a & b), but named the same. I have done a 'restore into' to create the db on server b, then taken a on-line dump of that DB, then done a restore, to bring it into a roll-forward pendind mode.

Hi, Correct me if I am wrong? Why should I specify at the restore statement such as Restore Database ABC ... "WITHOUT ROLLING FOWARD"? My understand is when I am using circular logging, automatically I CAN'T do a rollforward. If I can't do rollforward due to the circular logging, why should I specify "WITHOUT ROLLING FORWARD"?

Hi, I have two different applications running on 2003 both in two different vitrual directories. One application runs on the .NET framework 1.1 whilst the other runs on 2.0. If I change the framework version (via IIS admin ASP.NET tab) for either application (Initally the 2.0 app was recognised by IIS as 1.1) does this force IIS to restart? ?? Any links to further reading would be good.

I have a small database that mostly keeps track of material quantities going into jobs we do. I have been able to make this work well for me. I now want to add the tracking of a rolling balance of one particular material that we keep a small amount in inventory. Is there a straight forward way to track a rolling balance in Access other than simply tracking the sums of the increases and decreases forever?

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
