If I enable the PostgreSQL archive mode, the archive log directory will continue to generate archive log files. |
- The archive log files can be deleted after a full backup has been taken.
- Any archive log files created before the backup can be removed. - The ctmdbbck or the DBUHotBackup utility can be used to create the full backup.
- When a full backup is taken, an archive log file with with an extension of "*.backup" is created to indicate the backup time. - For example, here is a listing of the archive log directory:
A DBUHotBackup was taken on Aug 16 at 11:21 and the file with the "*.backup" extension is created to indicate the backup time. All of the archive logs before this file can be removed. -rw------- 1 em700p controlm 16777216 Aug 15 16:27 0000000300000002000000AB -rw------- 1 em700p controlm 16777216 Aug 15 23:01 0000000300000002000000AC -rw------- 1 em700p controlm 16777216 Aug 16 05:45 0000000300000002000000AD -rw------- 1 em700p controlm 16777216 Aug 16 10:59 0000000300000002000000AE -rw------- 1 em700p controlm 16777216 Aug 16 11:20 0000000300000002000000AF -rw------- 1 em700p controlm 16777216 Aug 16 11:21 0000000300000002000000B0 -rw------- 1 em700p controlm 242 Aug 16 11:21 0000000300000002000000B0.000002C0.backup For more information on Control-M Database Backup, please see 000095672:
