HP XP P9000 Replication Manager Software 7.6.0-00 Application Agent CLI Reference Guide

Description
This extended command executes the drmsqllogbackup command to back up the SQL Server's
transaction log linked to the specified operation ID.
Prerequisites
The prerequisite for executing this extended command is as follows:
• An operation definition file linked to the specified operation ID has been provided.
• None of the transaction log backup functions provided by SQL Server (such as BACKUP LOG and
the log distribution function) are being used.
Arguments
operation-ID
A character string that uniquely identifies the operation to be performed. Information in the operation
definition file linked to the specified operation ID is used when executing an extended command.
-no_cat
Specify this option when the backup catalog for the starting point of the transaction log backup does
not exist and the backup is one of the following:
• A backup for which the backup catalog has been deleted by a command that resynchronized the
copy group
• A backup for which only a remote backup (not a local backup) was performed
When the transaction log backup obtained by specifying this option is displayed by the -v option,
a hyphen (-) is displayed for ORIGINAL-ID and BACKUP-ID.
-no_truncate
Specify this option to perform a backup without truncating the transaction log. If a failure occurs, even
if the database data file is damaged (provided that the transaction log is not damaged), the transaction
log backup can be obtained by specifying this option.
-target database-name
Specify this option to display information about the specified database. If multiple database-name
parameters are specified, a comma must be used to separate each parameter. If a
storage-group-name parameter contains space characters, the entire parameter must be enclosed
in double quotation marks (").
When this option is specified, the specification of the TARGET_NAME parameter in the operation
definition file is ignored.
-f list-file-name
Specify this option to display information about a specific database. Unlike the -target option, by
creating a definition file that describes a list of databases to be displayed in advance, and by specifying
the file name, you can specify in a single step the databases whose information is to be displayed.
Specify list-file-name as an absolute path. If a list-file-name parameter contains space
characters, the entire parameter must be enclosed in double quotation marks (").
When this option is specified, the specification of the TARGET_NAME parameter in the operation
definition file is ignored.
