Re: Backup Log Files to Tape

Hi Kris,

Regarding your concern, SAP note 1377148 at point 9 explains:

1. b) AUTOSAVE LOG
   
   The automatic saving of log segments is triggered directly from the database core. There is no upstream instance (for example, DBM Server) that guarantees the creation of a pipe. Therefore, automatic log backups to a pipe CANNOT be supported at present.

Tape should be the same.

Also at present, only file can be the medium for automatic log backup.

Best regards,
James
