Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> alter tablespace ... end backup.... OR not?
This morning I experienced this funny feeling that you think to understand
something and still are puzzled by this something not following your logic.
Scenario:
This morning, riding on my bicycle back to work, I suddenly realized I had
forgotten to use the "alter tablespace ... end backup" statements, so that
would have been the first thing to do.
After arriving I soon discovered that the midnight backup had caused the
database to go down (abort, startup restrict, shutdown). On startup the
database complained about file 1, it needed media recovery.
OK, I can understand that, so I fullfilled it's needs, and the process ended as one hopes: log files applied, database open.
But now comes the funny part, as I see it: my tablespaces were no longer in backup mode. Nobody ever supplied the "end backup" statements, so I suppose it was implicitly done by the recovery. Is this expected behaviour?
regards,
Peter
