comment Is storing archive logs on local disk and backups on vendor storage possible?
Oooouh OK. So it will start filling ACTIVE LOG PATH. For the worst scenario - what will happen if that location after some time is also full??? And also how is calculated size of ACTIVE LOGS (similar to LOGFILSIZ*LOGPRIMARY for ARCHIVE LOGS)? Thank you

comment Is storing archive logs on local disk and backups on vendor storage possible?
When 2GB is fulfilled. DB2 will try to use the FAILARCHPATH. I do not have this defined. If I do not set AUTO_DEL_REC_OBJ setting what will happen? Will I get some error (out of space ) or DB2 will insert in archive logs new transations while previous will be deleted?

OK so archive logs size is calculated with this: LOGFILSIZ*LOGPRIMARY equals on example 2GB.

comment Is storing archive logs on local disk and backups on vendor storage possible?
Hello Chris it is totally clear now. If I may my last (unfortunately very begginer's) question-- is the maximum size of archive logs determined or not? On example if I turn archive logging on 1st January can there be a risk that I get out of storage space on local disk??? What steps should I take to prevent that I get out of storage if number of logs is just keep bigger and their number is also bigger and bigger? Thank you and sorry for this simple question

comment Is storing archive logs on local disk and backups on vendor storage possible?
Hi Chris thanks as always. I don't get the point of LOGARCHMETH2 paramter. What is it for? If both LOGARCHMETH are different from OFF logs will be written in both locations? Am I right? OK that wasn't what I thoght. By your answer you said I could have on different devices backups and archive logs so that is clear for me. Or I MUST(!!!) have LOGARCHMETH2 set if I want backup on different location (device)? thank you

comment DB2 Online Restore but Without Roll Forward?
Also please sorry but for changing from CIRUCLLAR to ARCHIVE logging I set LOGARCHMETH1 paramter to location of VENDOR:....so64 etc (library file). That is for archive logging. What path shoud I set for active logging? on example my LOGARCHEMTH1 is set to LOGARCHMETH1=VENDOR:/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbdb2.sl64 waht value should have ACTIVE LOG parameter? on local disk or also on some VENDOR location? what does it depends on?
