Table 6-8
Command files options (continued)
DescriptionOption
Indicates that you can run a command file
after a snapshot is created. Running a
command during this stage is typically a safe
point for allowing services to resume normal
activity on the drive while continuing the
recovery point creation.
Because the snapshot takes only a few
seconds to create, the database is in the
backup state momentarily. A minimal
number of log files are created.
Run after snapshot creation
Indicates that you can run a command file
after the recovery point file is created. You
can run a command during this stage to act
on the recovery point itself. For example,
you can copy it to an offline location.
Run after recovery point creation
Lets you specify the amount of time (in
seconds) that a command file is allowed to
run.
