GOAL:
Backup of After Image (AI) extents
FIX:
The AI extents are not backed up with Progress probkup command.
The AI extents have to be backed up with an OS tool.
You have to make a copy of the AI extent(s) prior to emptying it(them) with one of the commands
. rfutil <db> -C aimage empty
. rfutil <db> -C aimage end /* prior to version 9.1D */
. rfutil <db> -C aimage begin
While choosing the name of your AI extent's copy, you have to make sure you will not erase an earlier copy which might still be needed.
One suggestion for copying uniquely an AI extent would be to use the UNIX "date" command, once a second only. For example:
cp sports.a1 sports`date +"%d%h%H%M%S"`;sleep 1
