Client is running transaction logging for all databases. The backup schedule is:
Sunday - Full backup followed by an INACTIVATELOGS command.
Mon-Sat - Incremental backups
every 2-hours - Archivelog backups
These are scripts that should contain one or more "domdsmc" commands. Commands like domdsmc archivelog -logfile=... domdsmc incremental '*' -logfile=.... domdsmc inactivatelog -logfile=...
The management class retention is VERE=NOLIM, VERD=NOLIM, RETE=35 RETO=35
Best Practice
Full backup plus transaction log archives
It is often not practical to back up entire databases with each regular backup for large Domino installations. Archival logging captures changes to all logged databases in the archived transaction log files. Full database backups are run less frequently, reducing burdens on network and storage resources. To implement this strategy:
domdsmc help query * domdsmc query adsm domdsmc query domino domdsmc query preferences DOMDSMC Query DBBackup * DOMDSMC Query DB2Backup *|
displays information for all the database backups that are stored on the local Tivoli Storage Manager server. The information includes inactive backup objects and subdirectories within the file path.
