RE: [U2] Who uses Transaction Logging in Universe ???
Patricia, What are you trying to accomplish? AIX has a feature called snapshots. The concept with snapshot is COW or copy on write, as opposed to a "moment in time" of JFS2 filesystem.

RE: [U2] Who uses Transaction Logging in Universe ???
Transaction Logging has become very tunable and supports common file-level commands (check out the improvements made in 10.2!), so some of the "gotchas" mentioned can be made non-issues. Much of the overhead can be "tuned away" by carefully testing and examining the uvconfig parameters, system disks, system kernel, etc. A little effort ahead of time goes a long way...

It's working fine. Pretty robust, a lot of the things I thought I'd have to script/configure/modify work right outta the box. Biggest gotcha - if any of your item sizes are larger than 500K, you'll have to run with larger log files, increasing your exposure. If you're not using transaction commits, it doesn't guarantee data integrity. There's a performance penalty, exacerbated by poorly sized files. >From: "Patricia Wilson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org >To: >Subject: [U2] Who uses Transaction Logging in Universe ??? >Date: Wed, 1 Nov 2006 16:35:06 -0500 > >I am investigating using transaction logging on our Universe DB.
