GOAL:
Is there a way to view the contents of the after image files?
FIX:
Yes the content of the After image files can be viewed using the verbose option of the rfutil command or by using the strings UNIX command.
1. The verbose option to aiscan will display the transaction number, date and time the transaction began and ended, and the user ID of the user who initiated the transaction within the particular after image file.
Syntax> rfutil dbname -C aimage scan verbose -a <ai filename> > output2
2. A strings aifilename > output1, can be ran against the aifile. The strings command will remove the ASCII characters from the file that are above 128, making the file more readable. In the output file binary code, and data that has been modified can be viewed.
