Online Backups
Preliminary concepts
Online backups are those database backups that can be taken at the same time the
database is doing its job. In order to make Online Backups, the database must be
configured for linear logging. Same as it happens in circular logging, in linear
logging the log buffer records (i.e. Log records that are still kept in memory)
are taken to the primary log files B! unlike the circular logging, the primary
log files are "O! reusable under a linear logging configuration and once created
#ill ne$er be used again unless a restore % rollfor#ard is needed.
Log files containing records associated to transactions not yet committed nor
rolled back (aka In flight, unfinished) or log files not yet released into a
complete log file are called &'!I() LO* +IL)S and reside on the acti$e O"LI")
&,'-I() LO* directory % de$ice. Once completed they become O++LI") &,'-I() LO*
+IL)S and can be mo$ed automatically to another directory specific for them
assigned to db cfg parameter LO*&,'-.)!-/ or LO*&,'-.)!-0.
One of the first things to do #hen preparing a database for Online Backups
(besides creating it) is to configure primary and secondary log files in si1e
and number, as #ell as to configure the route for archi$ed log files. +or the
e2periments contained in this document #e #ill use the sample database 3B0
creates through the db0sampl command.

(instead of circular) there are se$eral interesting functional benefits #e may

accidentally or not.
Let6s suppose #e dropped a table yesterday at /H6CCh and today #e #ant to
restore the database including our dropped table. +rom a classical point of
$ie#, #e might restore the database to a point in time of, say, /F6?Gh losing
all the transactions comitted e$er since (and thus, ha$ing to remake them #ith
all it implies).
+or such cases, ho#e$er, there e2ists one function pro$ided by the database
history file since it keeps track of the acti$ity Jnot only about backups and
restores but also about tables that ha$e been droppedJ and #ill allo# us to
restore the database to the current situation plus to create and populate the
table as it #as prior to being dropped. Let6s see ho#7
+or this scenario #e #ill ha$e a control table containing the timestamp of e$ery
record inserted and a ne# table that #ill be our victim to illustrate the
e2periment.
Be #ill create a victim table ($ictima)
Be #ill load records in the control table (dropme). Be #ill also generate
more log files. !his is not strictly necessary but #e ha$e done it like
this for ha$ing a logsJdroppingJlogs situation.
Be shall drop the victim table.
