I have a production database that I need to change the logging type
from circular to archived so that I can do online backups. The
database is not particularly large, but is used by many people. What
impact from the users perspective can I expect? Is the only impact
behind the scenes in the db manager? Thanks in advance for any help.

There will be no impact no the user. DB2 has to manage the log files now
and as long as there is enough disk space (or a proper user exit archiving
the completed log files away), you don't have to worry.

But after changing the logging type a full offline backup is needed,
which means no users are allowed to connect. So the right time for
changing the logging type is just before creating a full backup.
In general database logging affects performance of bulk data
modifications from SQL (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) because the default
behaviour is to log table data updates. However, if your database is
fairly small it may not be an issue. After you turned on the logging
you would need to monitor performance anyways to see whether
performance degrades.

Yes, but this is irrelevant when comparing circular to archive logging.
DB2 always uses the transaction log for recovery. It's just a matter of
whether we want to keep the old log files or not.
Agreed... sorry for the confusion... :-(

Hi I'm working on some impact analysis stuff for C++. I was wondering if
anyone has seen an example of a type (lets say type "A") change impacting
the storage/layout another type (lets say type "B"), but B does not include
the header/src file where A is defined.
Also B is using type A by more than just a pointer, that is B needs to know
the size/layout of A.
For most (all?) complex types, I presume that the compiler must see the full...

In debug builds the /RTC option is enabled and catches the overrun.

Hello,
I am building a web service application in which i will have to

point to point. Though i have couple of solutions to adress this problem i

I am using EnterpriseLibrary 2.0 Exception and logging block for
logging exceptions to event log. It works fine for sometime. After some
time it stops logging to event log. To make it active again I need to
open the web.config and save without making any changes. It starts to
work again.
Here is the configuration I am using.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
