So, in theory, if you keep a table of user IDs and process IDs with
date and time, you could trace back journal entries to a specific user
on GT.M? Does anyone know if Cache's journals contain that much
information? K.S. Bhaskar wrote: Alexis -- Remember that the journal file contains information on all sets and kills, as well as before images of modified blocks. [A quick read of the chapter on journaling in the Administration and Operations manual as well as Technical Bulletin 5-025 on the Mupip Set Journal command (http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=11357&group_id=11026) may be in order.]The mupip journal -extract command can be used to tell you exactly which process made what updates. My guess is that the bulk of the information is before images - since you are presumably not making updates at a fast rate, every time that a block is modified during an epoch, GT.M will write a before image of that block. For development purposes, you can use the epoch_interval command of mupip set -journal to be something very large, such as 3600 (once an hour) or even 86400 (once a day). Note that a large journal file is nothing to be concerned about. If you want to get rid of it, backup the database using the mupip backup command with the -newjnlfiles=noprevlink option. Once the backup completes, you can delete the old generation journal file, since it will no longer be needed for recovery from a system crash. -- Bhaskar On Wed, 2004-09-08 at 14:45, "Christian Alexis Diez OcaÃa" wrote:Hi, Iâm running SemiViva 0.4 over GT.M. Last week my mumps.dat file was 271M, today it is 769M ! I just added a few patients and a few new persons, and I canât figure out the reason for such growth. Is there a way to identify what process is making the dat file larger? And/Or which files (within Vista) are growing up ?
