Hi Chris ,
you are right, backups are not completing correctly, i noticed that the =
full
backup are not successful
Therefore the incremental cannot be o.k. and the logfiles will not be
deleted. Thats o.k. i think.
I have to run a full backup, then the logfiles will be deleted. I would =
like
to know what code exchange agent gives to
adsm that the backup is right. Because i could check that code with =
ITO!
Thanks Chris.
