MaxDB 7.5 does not clear logarea after full backup

[Former Member]

Hi all,

We have MaxDB 7.5, turned on the auto-log-backup and are running full data-backups every night.

The problem is that the log-area is not cleared as I expected, so the log-area is filling up at 300 MB per day.

Was I wrong to expect the log-area to be cleared after a full backup?

Is it a parameter-setting?

Any ideas how to solve this?

Thanks in advance,

Martin

Sorry, I find no clue there. It just states that most of the log-area is available for overwrite after a backup.

Log entries can be overwritten after a log backup has been created.

A data backup does not allow to overwrite the log entries!
