dump transaction

Examples

Example 1

Dumps the transaction log to a tape, appending it to the files on the tape, since the init option is not specified:

dump transaction pubs2 
    to "/dev/nrmt0"

Example 2

Dumps the transaction log for the mydb database, using the Backup Server REMOTE_BKP_SERVER. The Backup Server dumps approximately half the log to each of the two devices. The init option overwrites any existing files on the tape. The retaindays option specifies that the tapes cannot be overwritten for 14 days:

dump transaction mydb
    to "/dev/nrmt4" at REMOTE_BKP_SERVER
    stripe on "/dev/nrmt5" at REMOTE_BKP_SERVER
with init, retaindays = 14

Example 3

Dumps completed transactions from the inventory_db transaction log file to device dev1:

dump tran inventory_db to dev1 with standby_access
